I ended up finding a guy that bought the door form me wholesale from Glasscraft for about $700, and then charged about $250 to do all the prep work (cutting the holes, etc) and staining.
He was in a different city an hour away. Basically, to save the fee for measuring and all that, I measured the door exactly per his instructions on the phone, and then went to pick up the door a week later from his shop. Two other local door retailers had quoted me $1800 for the exactly same door, installed. Basically, I saved a ton of money installing it myself. I just had to get my neighbor to help because the door weighs well over 100 lbs, but it popped into the existing frame perfectly! I just had to reinstall my old door hardware and i was good to go. Anyway, on to the pics!! Old door is shown on top. 4,065 posts, read 7,092,843 times Originally Posted by K'ledgeBldr I know this is an old post, but if you happen to be reading this, can you elaborate on why the labor is so expensive? If it's 'what the market will bear' then I can understand one way, but being a novice and have no clue, it puzzles me why this labor is so expensive? I think you can justify cost in every field with "you get what you pay for", but seriously this does not provide me (or other potential customers) insights as to why installing a door is so expensive.

We just installed a new front door ourselves as well, also opting to go from a solid 6 panel look to a full lite decorative glass. Makes a world of difference in the foyer! 9,621 posts, read 36,820,937 times Originally Posted by HB2HSV Most successful (even in this economy)subcontractors that I know won't even turn the key on their truck unless there's at least $200 to pocket. Every subcontractor has overhead- gas, insurance (vehicle[s]), maintenance, taxes, general liability insurance, W/C insurance, Business license(s), professional license(s), tools, phone(s), etc. Then there's travel time, total job time, and warranty issues. Then there's the time for ordering materials, time management of projects- All these things add to the bottom line. I've heard just about every excuse from people over the years about the price they paid for this or that. And on a few rare occasions I'd inquire as to a breakdown of the job that was done- all the answers I perceived to be based on what the customer thought it was worth as if they had done the work (or thought they could do the work) themselves.
