Supply and fit of new front door

Does anyone know the rough cost of supplying and fitting a new front door (complete with glazing, lock, letterbox and handles)? The door we want seems to be about 120 pounds wholesale (unglazed). Neither my partner or I are handy at all so we definitely don't want to have to do any of it ourselves.
Any advice appreciated! Thanks.

hi we have just paid £635 for fully fitted front door, ours is a very wide door so it probably cost more than a standard door, do you have any friends who could fit it for you, that may be cheaper, hope this helps"Don't go where the path may lead,go where there is no path and leave a trail"Anthony Robbins0

Hi
We are having our double glazing done in a couple of weeks - I think the uPVC doors, with a half glazed moon, costs about £450 fitted. The door comes with a top light though as the ceilings are pretty high.
Good luck!!

Thanks everybody. We've been quoted £450, so that sounds fair given what you've said! Much appreciated.0

No problems.
Just to let you know, we are in London and so prices tend to be higher than other parts of the UK.
It may be worth getting another couple of quotes and playing them off against each other.
Good luck!0 -
Hi, we live in Brighton and have just had a quote for £845 for a regular size front door, nothing fancy it seems a bit expensive to me. What do you think?0

Hi
Sounds a bit expensive to me. Is that for a hardwood door? Might pay to get a couple more quotes.0 -
I would get a couple more quotes.
Glazing - depending on the amount of panes would probably be no more than £120 and then to have it fitted (if a hardwood door) should be no more than £150 - £200. But obviously without seeing the door I cant be definate.
Get a couple of local joiners to quote for you.0 -
Is it def a 'regular' size? If it's for an older property it may not be and require more work to fit - get a couple of chippies in to have a look and give quotes.it's not having what you want - it's wanting what you've got0

Hi, sorry the door is upvc and have been looking around and found the exact same door on the internet for £320 so seems a bit much for fitting.
The door is def regular size.0
