Door Repair
Door Replacement in Singapore
A full door replacement is quoted after measuring at SG QuickFix, because the price depends on the door's size, material, hardware and whether the frame stays. Bedroom, bathroom and store-room doors are the most common. HDB main doors on a fire escape route need an HDB permit and a half-hour fire-rated door with a closer.

Task guide
When this may be needed
- The door is warped, split or swollen beyond trimming.
- A bathroom door has rotted at the bottom from years of water.
- A hollow-core door has a hole punched through it.
- The door has been damaged by termites.
- You are changing the style of the doors in a renovation.
What the team does
The technician measures the opening, checks the frame, and notes the hinge and lock positions. You then receive a quote for the door and hardware, and for fitting. On the installation day, the old door is removed, the new door is trimmed to the opening if needed, hinges and locks are cut in, and it is hung and adjusted so it swings and latches cleanly. Where the frame is also damaged, frame repair or replacement is quoted separately.
Included in this price
- Measuring the opening and checking the frame
- A written quote for the door, hardware and fitting
- Removal of the old door
- Fitting, hanging and adjusting the new door
Limits & price factors
Frame replacement, painting or lacquering the new door, and disposal of large items are quoted separately. Fire-rated main door replacements must follow the HDB permit process before work.
The door material (hollow-core, solid timber, laminate or fire-rated), its size, the hardware chosen and whether the existing frame can be re-used all affect the price. Non-standard sizes need a made-to-measure door, which takes longer to arrive. Condo lift bookings and work-hour rules can affect the installation date.
FAQs
If the main door faces a staircase or lift lobby on a fire escape route, yes. HDB requires a permit, and the new door must be half-hour fire-rated with a door closer. Internal doors don't need a permit.
Often. Sagging, scraping and latch problems are usually fixed with hinge, latch or frame work. Replacement makes sense when the door is warped, split, rotted or broken through.
Doors vary in size, thickness, material and hardware, and the frame condition decides whether the new door can be fitted straight in. Measuring first avoids paying for a door that doesn't fit.
Fitting takes half a day or more per door, after the door has been measured and ordered. Standard sizes arrive faster than made-to-measure doors.
