Factor 1
Material
Steel is generally the most economical exterior door material, fibreglass sits in the middle with strong energy efficiency, and solid wood is typically the most expensive given the material cost and hand-finishing labour. Interior doors follow a similar pattern between hollow-core, panel and solid options — including our Trimlite door lines, for which we're an authorized dealer.
Factor 2
Size & configuration
A standard single-opening door costs less than an oversized entry, a double door, a multi-panel folding system, or a wide sliding patio configuration — more material and more hardware means more cost.
Factor 3
Glazing
Adding glass — a sidelight, transom, or full-lite insert — adds cost over a solid slab, and the type of glass (clear, frosted, decorative, energy-rated) shifts the price further.
Factor 4
Hardware tier
As an authorized dealer for Schlage, Baldwin and Emtek, we carry hardware from functional entry-grade to premium designer finishes — see our hardware guide for how to choose the right tier for your project.
Factor 5
Finish
Stain-grade wood finishing, factory paint, and specialty commercial coatings all carry different labour and material costs compared to a standard factory finish.
Factor 6
Install & lead time
Whether we're delivering only or also installing, and how far out your project timeline is, can also affect scheduling and final pricing.
