Installing an Interior Door: How much does it cost?

Installing an interior door costs on average 300 Euro.

The price range for installing interior doors is 100 to 500 Euro.

Even though interior doors may not be essential in modern low-energy homes for every room, they are still indispensable in certain areas of an apartment or house. Interior doors not only separate rooms but also provide thermal and sound insulation, and serve as a decorative element. Fortunately, they come in a wide variety of designs and materials.

Factors that determine the price

• Door material

• Door size

• Old or new building

• Complexity of installation depending on the door type

Types of interior doors

• Hinged doors: The classic door type with side hinges, also called swing doors.

• Sliding doors: Used when saving space or covering large areas. They do not completely seal the room, as a narrow air gap remains between the wall and door.

• Swing doors (pendulum doors): Common in restaurants for kitchen entrances. They swing on a pivot hinge on both sides, adding a stylish touch in homes as well.

Installation costs

Costs depend on material and size. It is generally advisable to hire a professional to avoid errors.

Installing a new door frame adds approximately 16–51 Euro.

Even if you handle the removal of old doors yourself, hiring an experienced professional is recommended. Look for the RAL quality mark, which certifies qualified installers according to the ÖNORM B 5320 standard for old and new buildings.
