Pricing guide

The cost of installing internal doors depends largely on the door specification and whether a certified or compliance installation is needed. Standard internal doors typically involve straightforward labour and materials, while fire‑rated or specialist doors usually add specialised hardware, extra labour and paperwork. Travel/callout, site access and attendance outside standard hours can also affect the final price.

  • Specialist hardware and seals

    Certified locks, intumescent seals and other specialist fittings add materials and extra installation steps.

  • Who supplies doors and materials

    Homeowner‑supplied doors may reduce material requirements, while installer‑supplied or upgraded doors usually increase handling and scope.

  • Work complexity and site access

    Tasks such as removing frames, modifying openings or needing lifting equipment typically make the job more involved and time‑consuming.

  • Callout, timing and after‑hours

    Regional callout and labour arrangements, plus attendance outside standard hours, typically increase the overall cost compared with standard weekday work.

Frequently asked questions

Do door installers need a licence?
This trade requires a licence. For compliance‑rated doors, installers usually need the appropriate licence and any required qualifications to carry out certified installations, so ask the installer to confirm their licence and experience.
Can I supply my own doors and hardware?
You can often supply doors and hardware; homeowner‑supplied items are usually accepted and may alter the materials portion of a quote. Make sure supplied doors meet any required ratings and tell the installer so they can allow for fitting and any extra hardware.
What counts as a high‑spec or compliance installation?
High‑spec jobs generally involve fire/smoke/cyclone‑rated doors, certified hardware and intumescent seals and usually require extra labour for certification. These installations typically include additional paperwork and specialist components compared with a standard door replacement.
Will I get certification or paperwork for compliance doors?
Where a door requires a safety or compliance rating, installers usually allow time for paperwork, testing or certification processes as part of the higher‑scope profile. Ask each installer whether certification is included in their quote or will be provided separately.
How accurate is the instant estimate?
Our estimates are built from research across thousands of local jobs and real pricing data. Use them as a guide when speaking to door installers — your actual quote will depend on your specific job.
How many quotes will I get?

Why do you need photos?
