How Much Does It Cost to Install a Security Screen Door?

Hi guys,

Quick question to our tradies or semi-tradies here……
I'm looking at buying a security screen door to install infront of my entry door.
I just want to know what are the hourly rates I should expect to have this installed….quick notes:

  • Yes my door has a frame
  • Frame is metal/steel
  • I've measured the frame and it fits to the security screen door which has a ~4cm adjustable height/width (no cutting needed)

  • Just remember.

    If its not crimsafe if its not 'crim safe'!

  • So you already have the door and asking for the price of installation?

    • yes…hourly rate + appx time to install

  • depends if it is a security door or a screen door. I;d imagine a screen door would be like installing a standard door and lock. A security door would require a recognised installer for the manufacturer to hold up their warranty.

  • Just go to the Bunnings, pick a door, ask them to install, pick a date, pay for it. Done :)

    • I did buy it from Bunnings, they said they don't install, and they can't even recommend anyone

  • Just do it yourself.

    • Nah…

      need Drill bits to drill into metal frame, need to assemble the lock, etc hassle…

  • surely it wouldnt be more than 1 hours work for a tradie who knows what they are doing.

    • Its not about the amount of time it takes. Its about the additional work or money they could've made for a full days work. Thats why, most tradies charge minimum 4 hours.

  • +1

    Post it on Airtasker or Oneflare
    ps:- My Price would be $75, don't pay anymore.

  • As others have said post it on Airtasker. Every tradie will charge you 4 hours minimum at 65-75. Also, why not DIY? Its not difficult and you can learn something new.
