Pricing guide
Costs vary mainly with whether the installer supplies the door or you provide it, and whether the existing opening is suitable for a standard unit. Full-frame or new-opening work that includes structural carpentry, flashings and coordination with other trades is typically more involved and often more costly than a straightforward replacement. Timing such as after-hours attendance and regional callout or labour rates can also affect the final price.
Who supplies the door unit
Installer-supplied units are generally priced as a package, while owner-supplied units shift cost to labour and may need extra parts.
Condition of existing opening
A standard opening that fits a new unit is usually quicker to install than an opening that needs repair or modification.
Full-frame or new opening work
Building a new frame or rough opening involves structural carpentry, waterproofing and extra materials, increasing scope and complexity.
Onsite modifications for owner-supplied units
Incorrect or unfinished owner-supplied doors often require additional cutting, hardware or parts, which can raise labour time.
Coordination, permits and other trades
Jobs that need coordination with other trades or permit work (for example structural changes) typically take longer to schedule and complete.
