Amazing work! On time and did the work to perfection. He managed to fit the door knobs which were a bit tricky. He also helped fix our front door (which I wasn’t aware needed adjustment). Will hire again.

Top Door Installation related questions

Unless you’re also hiring your door installer to build the door for you, you will need to pre-purchase the door for them to fit.

Your door fitter will bring their own tools to hang your new door (unless otherwise confirmed). They’ll bring a chisel, hammer, g-clamp, power drill, carpenters square, and screwdriver.

Yes. Most door installations include lock fitting, but it’s important to confirm this when you book your service.

No. However, many handymen who fit doors are also qualified in a trade, such as carpentry.

This depends on the type of door being installed. Usually you’ll have your new door ready to use within hours. 

The average cost of hiring a door installer on Airtasker to fit your door installed is £59 - £171. You can expect to pay more of less than this depending on the type of door being installed and whether you also need a door frame built, jamb installed, or lock fitted. 

Handyman Services

What does a door installation service include?

Door installation involves more than just fitting a door to hinges. Measurements have to be exact, the door hinges may need to be recessed, and there should be enough space between the door and floor to prevent scratching or scraping.  The exact steps will depend on what type of door you need installed. Here are some of the most common:


Internal door installation 

The process for installing or replacing your internal door will depend on the style of door. Usually, your handyman will start by measuring the space and trimming the door to size, if needed. They’ll fit new hinges and screws your door into place using an electric drill, ensuring everything is level and lined up perfectly. In some cases, your installer may also fit new door frames to match (these will go in before the door).


Sliding door installation 

Cavity sliding doors are popular for areas with limited space, as the door disappears into the cavity when opened Your door installer will start by putting the sliding door frame together, knocking out the spacer and inserting the sliding track into the cavity. Next, they’ll install the frame, paying careful attention to ensure there is no bulging. They’ll install packers to support the frame before nailing it together. Lastly, the rollers will be attached and your new cavity sliding door hung, although your installer may still need to adjust the height and plumb of the door if needed.


Security door installation

The first step to installing your security door involves attaching the lock and handles, in line with the instructions that came with your door. Your installer will measure and mark hinge placement on the door jamb. If you have an older house, the door frame may not be square. To counteract this, your door installer will use their tools to make sure the hinges sit flush. Lastly, your door installer will attach the hinges and striker.


Screen door installation 

Your door installer will fit your new hinges by positioning it, marking the hinge rebates with a chisel, and using a drill to secure the hinges in place. Lastly, they will fit the handle, insert the lock cylinder, and attach the striker plate. Your handyman will then test the new screen door to make sure it’s opening and closing smoothly.


Door handle installation 

If you want to update the look and feel of your space without a full door installation, you might just replace the door knobs. Your handyman will remove the existing handles and fit the new ones. The exact process will depend on the style of door handle, so your installer will check the instructions, carefully fitting the lock mechanism and handle into the existing recess.

Locksmith to Replace Door Handle with Lock Handle

Wallington Square, Greater London

29th Oct 2023

Could you please advise whether you've done this kind of thing before, I need someone that knows what they're doing, I am pretty handy myself and tried to do it but wasn't able to figure it out. I am needing an internal door handle replaced in the apartment I am renting, so that I can securely lock it from both sides, one side while I am in the room, and the other side when I have to leave the house. I dont want to damage the door or door handle too much, only need to replace it while I live here. I also don't know which lock mechanism to purchase. If I provide picture of the existing handle and mechanism, are you able to find me a handle on Amazon that I can purchase and have you install easy enough? I will have access to a drill and a few basic tools here if needed. - Due date: Needs to be done on Monday, 30 October 2023

Replace door lock, change timer on boiler & sort out window draft

£100

Lambeth, Greater London, SE1

18th Oct 2023

I have a bedroom door lock which needs replacing-so you must have an impact. The wood in the door may need to be cut back a bit, so please make sure you have a cutting drill head whether flat wood or spade bit too to make this work. The situation is currently that the latch bolt and deadbolt are not catching onto the strike plate bolt in the door properly, and so the door doesn’t stay closed properly. * Second job is replacing the timer on an Worcester MT10 boiler (the boiler and part are shown in the picture.) * And the final job is to sort out the draft on 3 windows. One of the windows is letting in a slight draft, I intend to arrange a window stripping seal or something similar, but I think you should be knowledgeable about this stuff and any better suggestion you may have I am willing to listen. I work in construction myself so I have an idea of how much to charge for a job that (I’m assuming) shouldn’t take more than an hour, but the price is negotiable I guess as I want to have someone ideally do everything tonight around 6/7pm. I am also happy to add a bonus so that what you will receive does not leave you out of pocket with Airtasker’s fees. Please please no cowboys! Especially regarding changing the boiler timer, you MUST know what you’re doing, PLEASE. Any questions, please feel free to ask. - Due date: Needs to be done on Wednesday, 18 October 2023
