Supply & Hang wooden door

Options
I've been quoted over £700 to supply and hang a new wooden door. The door chosen was the Richmond Glazed from Howdens. This includes a standard satin handle and 5 lever lock also from Howdens. I'm struggling to get other carpenters to even come and quote so wondered if this was about right. We are in outer London.

    A chippy will allow a days work for an external door - locks, three hinges, fitting of weather bar, possibly rebating the bottom, etc.
    Your looking at probably £300 or more for a chippy in London and to find one that will do a days job at the moment is rare!


    So it may be the only quote you get, but TBH it's not off the mark.
    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.
