Why hire an internal door fitter?

New internal doors can instantly transform your interiors, maximise space, enhance natural light, and increase safety. However, fitting internal doors isn't always as easy as you might think.

They need to be accurately measured, trimmed, and fitted, taking into account that walls, floors, and frames are often not straight. For best results, it's therefore a good idea to hire an experienced tradesperson.

What services do internal door fitters offer?

Internal door fitters can carry out a wide range of tasks, including:

• Hanging or rehanging standard internal doors

• Replacing old or damaged doors

• Repairing specific components such as hinges, frames, or locks

• Trimming doors to better fit existing frames

• Installing new door frames

• Fitting internal bifold, pocket, or sliding doors

Remember, a checked door fitter is well-versed in fire and building regulation requirements, so you can be sure your doors are fitted with safety and compliance in mind.

How much does it cost to have internal doors fitted?

The cost of hanging a door will vary depending on the type of door, the scope of the job, and your location.

• It's quite typical for a carpenter to charge around £37.50 per hour

• Hanging an internal door normally costs around £120 per door

Most simple door fittings take around 2–3 hours, but more complex jobs (for example, wonky walls or intricate designs) can take between 4–5 hours.

Tip: It's a good idea to get a selection of quotes from door fitters covering your area to help ensure you receive a fair and competitive price for the work.

FAQs about internal door fitting services

Which tradespeople fit internal doors?

Carpenters and joiners both work with wood, but they carry out different tasks.

Joiners typically:

• Work off-site in a workshop

• Build bespoke items, including doors, window frames, and staircases

• Create custom timber components such as trusses or fitted furniture

Carpenters usually:

• Work on-site at your home or location

• Fit and install doors, skirting, floors, and staircases

• Adjust frames, hinges, and locks

Therefore, if you're having internal doors fitted, a carpenter is normally the tradesperson you'll need.

Can carpenters fit internal bifold doors?

Yes. If you're installing internal bifold doors, you'll need the services of a carpenter. These types of doors have a precise track system, which requires careful alignment to work properly.

Popular types of internal doors

• Classic panel doors are timeless and traditional, with the four-panelled Shaker style offering a slightly more modern aesthetic

• White internal doors never go out of fashion, creating a blank canvas for the rest of your home decor

• Glazed options are a top choice, encouraging natural light to flow through your home

• Timber doors are growing in popularity, particularly oak, cottage-style doors

• Sliding, pocket, and barn-inspired doors are trendy - and are especially useful in compact apartments or open-plan layouts
