In this article, we’ll go over the average replacement costs of patio doors, as well as the factors that influence them. We’ll also help you find a good replacement company.

That way, you’ll have a rough estimate going into the replacement project. Let’s get started!

What is the Average Patio Door Frame Replacement Cost?

The average cost of a patio door frame replacement is around $2,500. On the low-end of the spectrum, simple patio door replacements can cost around $1,000.

What Factors Influence This Price?

The gap between a $1,000 patio door replacement and a $10,000 one is pretty wide. So, what accounts for this large difference?

To give you a better idea in this section we’ll go over some of the factors that affect the final price. That way, you can get a closer estimate of how much your specific circumstances will cost you.

Patio Door Measurements

The first thing a contractor will do is take measurements for the new door. The size of the job determines how many materials they will need and how much labor is required.

A simple sliding door is a straightforward job that likely won’t cost much. But, folding patio doors that take up a whole wall are much more involved. So, the larger the job the more expensive it will be.

Patio Door Materials

The type of material for your patio door frame also plays a factor. It’s not necessarily that certain materials cost more than others (there is a marginal difference).

Rather, it’s that certain materials require more labor and structural reinforcement during installation. If you’re on a budget, go with something affordable like vinyl or aluminum.

However, if the price is no object and you want visual appeal/ durability, you might want to go with wood or fiberglass.

Patio Door Trim

Trim refers to the molding that lines the frame of your new patio door. If the type of door trim isn’t important to you, you can go with a casing kit designed to fit standard doors.

However, you might want a trim that compliments that door’s style. If that’s the case, go with a custom one. It will cost more, but it will also make a big difference in appearance.

Patio Door Work Space

Ideally, your patio door site will be in a part of the house will little traffic and furniture. If there is furniture, then you can save time by moving it. Anything that adds time to the contractor’s job will be more expensive.

If there’s a lot of furniture that needs moving, then this will factor into their cost. Similarly, patio doors in hard-to-reach sections of the house will likely cost more.

This is because they need to move heavy materials to this section of the house.

Patio Door Installation

The complexity of the installation is another factor. As we mentioned, standard slide patio doors are easy to install. Often they can take less than two hours if the individual is experienced enough.

But, larger jobs, or jobs that involve custom patio doors, will cost more. This is because they take longer.

In some cases, it can take all day or even multiple days. However, they’re also expensive because they require more laborers.

Patio Door Waste Disposal

In some cases, you will also need to worry about waste disposal following a patio door job. Installing a patio door creates a lot of waste. Some companies include the cost of waste disposal in their quote.

Others will require you to deal with it. This typically involves hiring a junk removal professional that’s near you. This can cost you between $100 to $600 per truckload, depending on where you live.

How to Find the Best Patio Door Replacement Service

Even the most straightforward patio door replacement still costs a lot of money. As such, the last thing you want is to spend a lot of money only to have a subpar installation.

So how do you avoid this? By making sure that the patio door replacement service you choose is trustworthy and experienced. You can check their trustworthiness by looking at online reviews.

What was the typical customer experience like? What are some common complaints? Just make sure to take these reviews with a grain of salt. While one or two bad reviews are to be expected, a lot should be seen as a clear red flag.

You can usually identify experience by how long a business has been around. For example, these window and patio door installers have over one hundred years of collective installation experience.

It’s fine if there’s someone new on the job. Just make sure that they’re being overseen by a professional with lots of experience.

Find the Best Professionals for the Job

We hope this article helped you learn more about patio door frame replacement costs. As you can see, even a minor patio door replacement can quickly get expensive.

Because of this, you should make sure you have enough money set aside before you start the project. Otherwise, you can quickly get overwhelmed by expenses.
