What new doors cost in Toronto and the GTA (2026)
“How much does a new door cost?” is one of the most common questions we hear — and one of the hardest to answer in a single number, because “a door” can mean a simple interior slab, a solid front entry door, a wall-spanning patio door, or a set of French doors with sidelites. This 2026 guide breaks down realistic supplied-and-installed pricing for the doors that matter most to Toronto and GTA homeowners, and explains what actually drives the number so you can compare quotes fairly.
As a quick reference, here are typical installed ranges across the GTA for the exterior doors we install most often:
| Door type | Typical installed range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Front entry door (insulated) | $2,500 – $4,000 | Steel/composite or European core |
| Entry door with sidelite / transom | $3,500 – $6,000 | More glass, grander entrance |
| Sliding patio door | $2,500 – $5,000 | Standard to premium European slider |
| Lift-and-slide patio door | $5,000 – $9,000+ | Very large openings, walls of glass |
| French doors | $3,000 – $6,000 | Interior or exterior, in/out-swing |
| Bifold / folding door | $6,000 – $12,000+ | Multi-panel, opens a full wall |
These are ranges, not quotes — your exact price depends on the factors below.
What drives the price of a door
- Door type & size: a standard entry door is far less than a wall-spanning lift-and-slide or bifold system.
- Material & core: insulated steel and composite entry doors, European uPVC and aluminium systems each price differently and perform differently.
- Glass & sidelites: decorative glass, sidelites and transoms add light and cost.
- Glazing package: double vs triple glazing, Low-E coatings and argon fill affect price and energy performance.
- Hardware: multi-point locking, premium handlesets and smart locks add to the total.
- Installation complexity: structural changes, rotted framing, or enlarging an opening add labour.
- Finish & colour: custom colours and dual-tone finishes can carry a small premium.
Supply-only vs supplied-and-installed
Online prices you see are often for the door slab or unit only. A professional supplied-and-installed price includes measuring, custom manufacturing to your opening, removal and disposal of the old door, precise fitting, weather-tight sealing, interior and exterior trim, hardware adjustment and clean-up — plus a workmanship warranty. In Toronto's climate, that installation quality is where comfort and energy savings are won or lost: even a premium door leaks heat and money if it is shimmed poorly or sealed carelessly. When comparing quotes, always confirm what is included so you are comparing the same scope.
Is a more expensive door worth it?
Often, yes — especially for exterior doors that face Toronto winters and daily use. A quality insulated or European door seals tighter, locks more securely, and lasts longer than a builder-grade unit, which pays back in lower heating bills, better security and fewer problems down the road. A new front entry door is also consistently ranked among the highest-return home improvements for resale and curb appeal. That said, if you are on a tight budget or preparing a home for a quick sale, a solid mid-range door in a quality installation is a sensible choice. Because every Eurostar door is built to order, you can also prioritise: invest in the doors that face the weather and get used daily, and keep it simple elsewhere.
How long does door installation take?
Most single-door replacements — a front entry door or a standard patio door — are completed in a single day, including removal of the old door, fitting, sealing, trim and clean-up. Larger or structural jobs take longer: enlarging an opening, installing a wall-spanning lift-and-slide or bifold system, or repairing rotted framing can add a day or more. We confirm the timeline in your written quote so you know exactly what to expect, and we handle any required permits as part of the project.
Custom manufacturing lead time is separate from installation day: because every Eurostar door is built to order, allow a few weeks between your approved quote and the install date, which we schedule with you in advance.
