For one door Yes.
Get a discount for more than one though."The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him no good."(Samuel Johnson 1709-1784)

Does this include fitting furniture? It not, then what's a fair price for doing that (standard internal latch, handles both sides, no lock)?Says James, in my opinion, there's nothing in this world

I am getting 4 doors today that want fitting. I bought the handles (much cheaper online than B&Q), stainless steel hinges 3 per door, and one of those toilet things that you can unlock from the outside. I have had no quotes yet
I also want a loft ladder fitting why they are there as its a devil getting any tradesman round0 -
£30 was what I got quoted today including handles and knobs.0

at £80 per door he doesnt need to get a lot of work i would love to do 2 doors for £160 than 4 for £80 but why do you think you should get a discount for more than 1 door? the work is the same per door0

I bought 4 doors today at B&Q at £22 more online less 10% OAP discount
I ordered these handles last week online @£7 each B&Q were £22
http://www.handleworld.co.uk/product.php?id=HW-1002-SSSThat is a very good price, I take it the doors are not oak doors?, they usually charge anything from £50-£80 a door, that also includes door furniture.
You might be able to get a bit off seeing as there is 4 doors.:D0 -
I usually charge £25 per internal door - assuming they are just standard doors, nothing fancy. That includes the handles etc. I don't normally give discount for more. I have been known to charge £30 for just one door though, as by the time you've travelled, got set up etc etc. The first one always takes a tad longer.
£80 per door???? blimey I need to move back down south quick! I would charge that though for a fire door if it needed all the trimmings.

As I've said before I charge £35 per door as this is what I get doing site work. (new build is easier)
Having said that I'm doing some doors for a nurse at moment and I'm charging £25 per door but I think they do a great job for poor pay, having worked on a hospital I couldn't believe how much money is just wasted :mad: solid maple door sets etc, perhaps I should take this to the vent boardMaybe, just once, someone will call me 'Sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene.'0 -

Likewise, my carpenter quoted me £30 per door, but since we want five done at the same time reduced it to £125 (£25 per door). This is for fitting standard wooden doors plus furniture.Says James, in my opinion, there's nothing in this world
