Worn doors generate work orders. A door that drags gets propped. A door that will not latch gets reported by security every night. A door with a failed sweep lets winter in and raises the heating bill on the tenant side. Each one gets a quick fix, the quick fixes stack up, and eventually the property manager is paying a locksmith monthly to keep doors working that should have been replaced two budget cycles ago. The other problem is piecemeal replacement. When doors are replaced one at a time by whoever answers the call, hardware stops matching, keying gets messy and no two doors in a corridor close the same way. ## What Is Included in Commercial Door Replacement? Commercial door replacement is a like-for-like or upgrade swap of an existing door. The opening already exists, so the job is about what stays and what goes. ![Technician checking an existing steel door frame for square before a like-for-like swap](https://placehold.co/1200x750/12151A/f8fafc?text=Technician+checking+existing+steel+door+frame+for+square+with+level+before+like+for+like+swap) The written CAD spec lists, per opening: - Door size, handing and type (hollow metal, aluminum or wood) - Frame condition: reuse or replace, with the reason - Hardware: transfer, upgrade or new, to ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 - Weatherstrip, sweep and threshold on exterior doors - Phase number and target date - Price range Technician confirms specs and price at your free on-site measure. ## Types of Door Replacement We Handle ### Like-for-like swaps Same size, same type, same handing, existing frame reused. The fastest and most economical option. ### Upgrade replacements Same opening, better door: insulated instead of uninsulated, galvanized instead of prime-coat, wider stile for an exit device. ### Portfolio programs Many doors across several buildings on one spec, phased by budget and priority. Typical for property managers along the 401 and 404 office corridors. See how we phased a 14-branch and two-warehouse door rollout [/blog/multi-location-door-rollout-phasing/ →](/blog/multi-location-door-rollout-phasing/) on one spec and one invoice. ### Damage replacements After break-ins, vehicle strikes or weather damage, often with insurance direct-billing and an emergency board-up first. ## How Much Does Commercial Door Replacement Cost in Toronto? | Scope | Typical range per opening | Main cost drivers | | --- | --- | --- | | Interior door swap, frame reused | $1,500-$2,500 | Door type, hardware transfer | | Exterior steel swap, new sweep and threshold | $2,200-$3,800 | Core, finish, weatherstrip | | Door plus new frame and hardware | $3,500-$5,500 | Wall type, exit device, rating | ## When Should You Replace Instead of Repair? - The door has been adjusted repeatedly and still drags or will not latch - The bottom rail or skin is rusted through - The door is the wrong type for its use (uninsulated on heated space, light gauge in a loading area) - Hardware upgrades need reinforcement the old door does not have - You are standardizing doors and keying across the building We do not do repair calls; as a commercial door contractor in Toronto [/ →](/) , we focus on installation and replacement. If a door needs replacing, we spec and install the replacement properly. ## Replacement vs Full New Opening If the frame is sound, a replacement saves wall work, finishing and time. If the frame is bent, loose or rusted at the base, the new door will not perform, and the spec will say so. ## Codes and Standards Replacements on rated openings use labelled doors and keep the frame label valid, exits keep their egress hardware, and public entrances keep AODA clearances. Hardware is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1. Free site measure, then a written CAD spec for your door replacement in 2 business days.

Anita G. Medical office PM | Davis Drive, Newmarket Door Frame Replacement > "Two worn exterior doors replaced like-for-like in one visit. They transferred our existing access hardware and the doors latch every time now." Ravi K. Logistics facility ops | Peel logistics corridor, Brampton Commercial Door Replacement > "I manage four office buildings along the 401 and we had a backlog of worn exterior and corridor doors that kept generating work orders. They measured all of them, grouped them by type, and gave me one written spec with a price range per door so I could phase the work over two budget quarters. They swapped like-for-like where frames were sound and flagged three openings that needed new frames. Work was done after hours, tenants barely noticed, and door-related work orders dropped right after the first phase." Michelle T.

Prices are ranges; a technician confirms specs and price at your free on-site measure. How much does commercial door replacement cost in Toronto? Most like-for-like replacements run $1,500-$5,500 per opening. An interior steel door swapped into a sound frame with existing hardware transferred sits at the low end. An exterior door with a new frame, new exit device, closer and weatherstrip sits at the top. Whether the frame is reused is the biggest single cost factor, because frame replacement adds wall work. Portfolio programs price lower per door because measuring and ordering are shared. A technician confirms specs and price at your free on-site measure, and the written CAD spec lists every door. Can you reuse our existing frames? Often yes. A frame that is square, well anchored and free of base rust can take a new leaf. The spec marks every frame as reuse or replace so there are no surprises. Can replacements happen after hours? Yes. Most swaps in occupied offices, condos and plazas are booked evenings, weekends or between shifts, and every opening is secured before the crew leaves. Can you transfer our existing hardware? Yes, if it is in good condition and compatible with the new door. Access control hardware, locks and closers are often transferred. Worn hardware is upgraded to match the building standard. How do portfolio replacements work? We walk all buildings, group doors by type and condition, and give you one spec with a range per door and phases mapped to your budget. Each phase is closed with a report and warranty. Do you handle insurance claims? Yes. For damage from break-ins, vehicles or weather, we direct-bill major commercial property insurance claims and provide photos and a written install plan. How long does a replacement take? Typically 7-14 business days from sign-off. On site, a single swap is usually a few hours to half a day. Do you replace doors in Brampton warehouses? Yes. A Peel logistics facility recently had two worn exterior doors replaced like-for-like in one visit, with existing access hardware transferred. What if the frame is bent or rusted? Then the frame is replaced too. See commercial door frame replacement for that scope. Do you replace residential doors? No. Residential, garage and window work is referred through our partner network. Still have a scope question? Our spec desk answers the phone.
