WALL SAWING PROJECTS

Three Jobs, Three Different Prices

The type of opening, existing structure and required finish all affect the cutting method and the final price.

01

A New Opening Where There Was Never a Door

Solid RCC or block wall, fresh cut. Villa majlis entrance, internal doorway, access between two warehouse bays.

NEW OPENING
02

Widening a Door You Already Have

An 800mm doorway that now needs a 1000mm leaf, a double door, or wheelchair clearance. Almost always cheaper than a new opening — ask before you decide to cut somewhere new.

EXISTING OPENING
03

An Opening Sized to a Specific Fitting

Fire doors, steel security doors, roller shutters, glass partitions. Where the supplier’s tolerance is 5mm and a rough opening will not do.

PRECISION OPENING
BEFORE WE CUT

Before We Cut, Three Things Get Checked

This is where door cutting jobs go wrong, which is why we do not quote from a phone call alone.

01

Is the Wall Holding the Building Up?

A block partition is a simple cut. An RCC shear wall, or a wall sitting hard against a column, is not — it may need a structural engineer to design a lintel or steel frame first.

We will tell you which one you have. If it needs an engineer, you hear that before you have paid us anything.

We would rather lose the job than cut something that should not be cut.
02

What Is Inside the Wall?

Rebar, post-tension cables, live conduit and water pipes can all be hidden inside concrete walls and slabs.

We scan every wall before cutting. Hitting a PT cable in a slab or a live conduit in a wall can turn a two-hour job into an insurance claim and a shutdown.

Every structural cut starts with scanning.
03

Does It Need a Permit?

In Abu Dhabi, cutting a new opening in an existing building is a structural modification and may require approval through the Department of Municipalities and Transport via the TAMM portal.

DMT-registered engineering consultants handle the relevant submission on the owner’s behalf. Civil Defence approval can also apply where the opening affects fire compartments or escape routes.

We tell you what your job is likely to need before you commit.

We Are the Cutting Contractor, Not Your Consultant

We work alongside whichever consultant you appoint. Our job is to make sure you understand what the cutting work is likely to require before you commit, and then carry out the cut safely and professionally.

THE RIGHT METHOD

Wall Saw, Not Jackhammer

Most people picture a breaker and a lot of dust. That is not how a professional door opening should be made.

Diamond Wall Saw
Breaker / Jackhammer
Edges
Straight, square, ready for frame
Ragged, needs making good
Vibration
Low
High — cracks surrounding plaster and tiles
Noise
Moderate, continuous
Severe, impact
Occupied Buildings
Workable with containment
Usually not permitted
Structural Risk
Controlled cut line
Uncontrolled overbreak
Making Good After
Minimal
Significant, and it is your cost

The saw costs more per hour. It costs less per job once you count the repair.

OUR EQUIPMENT

What We Run

Diamond Wall Saw

Most openings, 100–600mm wall thickness.

Wire Saw

Very thick or heavily reinforced sections.

Stitch Drilling

Corners and tight access — stops the cut overrunning above the opening.

Handheld Ring Saw

Small widenings and finishing cuts.

Clean Corners Matter

We finish corners by drilling rather than running the blade past the line. That matters if the wall is exposed and you are not re-plastering the whole face.

DUST AND WATER

We Match the Cutting Setup to Your Building

Slurry containment on wet cuts, vacuum-shrouded dry cutting where water is not acceptable — occupied offices, live retail and finished flooring. Tell us at the survey and the right setup arrives on the truck.

  • Permit submission through your consultant
  • Lintel or steel frame supply and installation
  • Making good, plastering and painting
  • Door frame supply and fitting

OUR PROCESS

How the Job Runs

From the first WhatsApp message to a clean, ready-to-use opening, we keep the process clear, controlled and properly planned.

01

WhatsApp Us Photos

Both faces of the wall if you can, with a tape or a door in shot for scale. You get an indicative price back and a straight answer on whether it needs an engineer.

02

Free Site Survey

We measure, scan the wall, check access, confirm power and water. Fixed quote after this — never before.

03

Approvals

You or your consultant close the permit. We hand over the method statement, risk assessment and insurance documents building management will ask for.

04

Cutting Day

Protection down, containment up, cut made, section lifted out in controlled pieces.

05

Clear and Hand Over

Debris off site, opening square and swept, ready for the frame.

Typical Completion Time

Most single door openings: one working day. Heavy reinforcement or restricted access: two.

DOOR OPENING PRICING

What a Door Opening Costs in Abu Dhabi

Other companies quote per square metre. That is not much use when you are pricing one doorway, so we quote per opening — one number, agreed before we start, covering the cut, clean-up and debris removal.

We do not publish a price list, because two identical-looking doorways can differ by double. A 150mm block partition on the ground floor and a 300mm RCC wall on the fourteenth are not the same job.

Wall Thickness

Wall thickness and material affect the cutting time and equipment required.

Reinforcement

The amount of steel inside the wall can change the cutting method and duration.

Opening Size

Larger openings require more cutting, handling and controlled removal.

Site Access

Access, floor level and space around the wall can affect the overall job setup.

Working Hours

Daytime, out-of-hours and night work can have different requirements.

Making Good

Whether plastering, repairs or making good are included also affects the final price.

Want a Realistic Figure?

Send photos of the wall on WhatsApp — both faces, with something in shot for scale. You get a realistic figure the same day and a straight answer on whether it needs a structural engineer first.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wire Sawing

We price per opening, not per square metre. send a photo on WhatsApp and you will get a realistic figure the same day, before anyone visits site.

Physically, yes. But it needs a structural engineer to design the lintel or frame first, plus municipality approval. We identify whether your wall is load-bearing at the survey, and we will not cut a structural wall without that design in place.

For a new opening in an existing building, usually yes. It is treated as a structural modification rather than maintenance, and it is filed with the Department of Municipalities and Transport through TAMM by a DMT-registered consultant. Most towers and communities also want building management approval on top.

A standard single door opening in block or moderately reinforced concrete is one working day, including protection, cutting and clearing. Thick RCC, tight access or night work makes it two.

Not with saw cutting. A diamond blade cuts a clean line with very little vibration. The cracking people worry about comes from breakers, which we do not use for door openings.

Yes, and it usually costs less. We cut the extra width on one or both sides and square the head. The same structural checks apply if the wall is load-bearing.

Most door openings are in walls between 150mm and 300mm, which we cut in a single pass. Thicker walls we cut from both faces, and for anything heavier we use a wire saw. Send us the wall thickness and we will tell you which method your job needs.

Slurry containment on wet cuts, vacuum extraction on dry. In occupied offices and finished homes we default to dry cutting with extraction and full sheeting.

Yes. Most tower and retail work in Abu Dhabi has to be out of hours. Tell us the building’s permitted window and we plan around it.

Yes — Al Raihan Rental works across the UAE. This page covers our Abu Dhabi operation.

Send Us the Wall. We Will Send You the Answer.

One photo on WhatsApp is usually enough — we can read wall type, rough thickness and access from it. Indicative price the same day, fixed quote after a free survey.
