When homeowners search “slab door installation cost,” they want a clear, trustworthy number and a hassle-free job. CountBricks delivers both. By combining live voice capture, AI-powered estimating and up-to-the-minute material databases, our platform turns a quick conversation into a detailed residential quote—no spreadsheets needed.
A slab door is the door panel only—no frame, hinges or hardware. It is ideal for replacing damaged or outdated doors when existing jambs are still square. Because you reuse the frame, slab installations are usually faster and cheaper than pre-hung options, but only when measurements are precise.
National residential range: $170 – $550 per interior door, all-in.
Typical Las Vegas home range: $210 – $465 per door, based on recent CountBricks estimates.
These figures include:
• Labor by licensed finish carpenters
• Solid-core, paint-grade slab up to 32″ × 80″
• Standard hinges, latch set and basic paint touch-up
• Jobsite setup, cleanup and disposal of packaging
• Door material: Hollow-core MDF is least expensive; premium solid hardwood or custom glass inserts raise costs 50 – 150 %
• Existing frame condition: Out-of-square jambs require planing, shimming or even jamb replacement, adding 1-2 labor hours
• Hardware upgrades: Concealed hinges, smart locks or designer levers quickly add $75 – $300 per door
• Finish level: Factory-primed doors save onsite painting time; stained finishes or specialty colors increase labor and material spend
• Project scale: Installing six or more doors during a remodel allows CountBricks crews to batch tasks and lower per-door pricing by 10 – 15 %
1. During a live voice call, our AI records door dimensions, material preferences and site conditions.
2. CountBricks instantly pulls real-time material costs from partnered suppliers and matches them to your ZIP code.
3. Labor hours are auto-calculated using historic production rates from thousands of completed CountBricks projects.
4. The platform produces a PDF and Web portal estimate—complete with tasks, quantities and line-item pricing—within minutes.
5. Homeowners approve digitally, and our networked crews receive the scope, schedule and purchase list automatically.
• Inaccurate rough opening measurements: CountBricks mobile app prompts installers to capture width, height and jamb depth to the 1/16″.
• Missing hardware template: Our estimate includes factory mortising when necessary, avoiding onsite chiseling delays.
• Underestimating paint time: AI adds correct drying allowances for climate conditions pulled from local weather APIs.
• Materials (door, hinges, lockset): 45 %
• Labor (remove/fit/finish): 40 %
• Finishes & consumables: 10 %
• Project overhead & waste: 5 %
• Group door replacements with other trim work to share site prep costs
• Opt for factory-primed doors and apply a uniform wall color after install
• Reuse existing hinges if the finish matches new hardware
• Schedule installs midweek when labor demand is lower in many regions
Because the same AI engine powers estimating, takeoffs and invoicing, homeowners never see unexpected add-ons. Once a slab door installation cost is approved, every subsequent invoice references the original line items—full transparency, zero surprises.

A recent homeowner in Summerlin, NV, asked CountBricks to replace six hollow-core doors with solid-core slab upgrades. The client’s goals were improved acoustic privacy and a modern aesthetic without disturbing freshly painted walls.
• Scope captured via a 12-minute phone call and five smartphone photos
• AI estimate delivered: $2,310, including doors, brushed-nickel hardware and touch-up paint
• Scheduled start within 48 hours of approval
• Total on-site time: 1.5 working days with a two-person crew
1. Door frames were slightly out of square after a prior tile upgrade. Our platform flagged the risk, adding 0.25 labor hours per door for planing. The crew arrived with portable planers, keeping the timeline intact.
2. Client requested smart privacy locks on two bedroom doors late in the process. Because CountBricks tracks hardware compatibility, the estimator swapped latch sets in seconds and regenerated the invoice—no change order fees.
• Final cost variance: +1.8 % (hardware upgrade only)
• Acoustic performance measured at 38 dB average improvement
• Customer satisfaction rating: 10/10, now showcased on CountBricks.com/portfolio
