Most homeowners begin their renovation journey with a single question: “What is the price to hang a door?” While online ranges can swing wildly, CountBricks delivers data-driven answers specific to your home, your market, and your finish requirements. Our AI estimate engine uses live material pricing, voice-captured site details, and the historical productivity of vetted Fort Worth installers to remove the guesswork.
• Hollow-core interior door: $110–$165 installed
• Solid-core interior door: $180–$260 installed
• Prehung exterior steel door: $350–$550 installed
• Custom wood entry door: $900–$1,600 installed
These figures include standard demolition of the old slab, minor jamb shimming, new hinges, and site clean-up. Complex framing repair, trim upgrades, or smart-lock preparation will add to the total. CountBricks dynamically flags these extras in the estimate so you never face surprise change orders.
The installer’s time accounts for 50–65 % of the price to hang a door. Fort Worth wage data shows an average $58–$65 per labor hour for finish carpenters. CountBricks captures actual labor minutes on every completed job, updating our rate library continuously.
• Door slab or prehung unit
• Hinges, screws, shims, foam insulation
• Casing trim and finish nails if you’re upgrading the surround
Material costs fluctuate daily. CountBricks pulls real-time pricing from regional suppliers so your quote reflects today’s shelf price, not last quarter’s catalog estimate.
1. Voice Capture: During a quick phone walk-through you describe dimensions, wall type, and existing conditions. Our speech-to-scope AI converts your words into quantified tasks.
2. Blueprint Takeoff: If you have plans, upload them to CountBricks.com/blueprint-takeoff. Our computer vision tags every door symbol and classifies it by size and swing, shaving hours off manual counting.
3. Local Data Fusion: The platform merges your scope with Fort Worth labor averages and supplier SKU pricing pulled each morning.
4. Instant Estimate: A line-item proposal—with breakout for labor, materials, tax, overhead, and margin—hits your inbox in minutes. Edit options live, lock pricing, and approve the work order online.
• Door Type: Solid wood adds weight, increasing both material cost and labor time for precise hang and adjustment.
• Frame Condition: Out-of-plumb openings demand extra shimming or reframing.
• Hardware Complexity: Mortising a three-hinge layout is quicker than chiseling for baldfaced hinges and multipoint locks.
• Finish Level: Painted units need caulking and sanding; stained doors require finer grit prep.
Some homeowners attempt door installation themselves to cut costs, but hidden expenses pile up:
• Tool rental—planer, hinge jig, finish nailer—often exceeds $150 for a weekend.
• Wasted materials from mis-cuts or chipped veneers.
• Lost time: a pro averages 1.4 hours per interior door, while a DIY rookie can spend a day on the first unit.
CountBricks crews arrive with precision templates, laser levels, and decades of trim carpentry experience, ensuring perfect reveals and a latch that clicks shut every time.
CountBricks Pay-As-You-Build lets you divide payments across milestones: demo, set, trim, and punch list. This protects your cash flow and ties payment to measurable progress.
• AI-accurate pricing eliminates budget overruns.
• Same-day digital quotes keep your project momentum high.
• In-house crews are background-checked and warranty backed for two full years.
• Client portal tracks schedule, photos, and invoices in one place.

When the Reyes family in Benbrook planned to replace their pantry door and upgrade their front entry, they assumed both installs would cost about the same. After a quick call with CountBricks, they learned why the price to hang a door can vary by several hundred dollars.
• 30" hollow-core slab selected from CountBricks.com/material-catalog
• Existing frame square; zero reframing required
• Brushed nickel lever re-used, saving hardware expenditure
Because the opening was plumb and the homeowner chose paint-grade trim, our installer completed the task in just over an hour. The CountBricks dashboard automatically reduced the labor line item to reflect actual minutes on site.
• 36" custom mahogany prehung unit with sidelites
• Frame replacement, waterproof flashing, and low-E threshold upgrade
• Smart deadbolt and viewer integration
While materials drove the majority of the cost, labor jumped as well. Setting a heavy mahogany door demanded two carpenters, specialty lifts, and precision milling for the smart lock. CountBricks captured each nuance, preventing the sticker shock that plagues many renovation budgets.
• Small variances—weight, jamb condition, hardware—have outsized impact on final cost.
• Real-time data prevents generic “ballpark” quotes that later balloon.
• Transparent line items create trust and empower smart trade-offs, such as choosing stock casing to offset premium hardware.
