Compare door, frame and hardware installation separately
An installation-only quote and a supply-and-fit quote need different item lists. Agree the door and frame details before ordering materials.
| Quote item | Ask the provider to confirm in writing |
|---|---|
| Door specification | Which opening, door size, material and swing direction are being priced, and who checks the final measurements? |
| Supplied items | Does the total include the door leaf, frame, architrave, hinges, handles and lockset, or are you supplying some of them? |
| Existing frame | Can the current frame be used as assessed, or is adjustment, removal or replacement separately quoted? |
| Fitting and finish | What trimming, edge finishing, painting and surrounding-wall making good are included, subject to the product instructions? |
| Removal and access | Who removes the old door, disposes of waste and arranges carrying, work-hour and drilling access? |
| Acceptance check | Will the installer demonstrate the agreed swing, closing, latch and lock operation, and state the adjustment or warranty terms? |
Identify any special door requirements with the owner or building manager before accepting a general interior-door installation scope.
