Custom exterior doors cost in Toronto depends on what you build, and at EHI Custom Doors the starting point is published. A custom fiberglass single door starts at $2,500 installed, and a double door starts at $5,100 installed. That applies to front doors, back doors, front entry doors and back entry doors. These are starting prices, and the final number varies with the choices in this guide, such as the lock, sidelights and glass.
We manufacture every door in our workshop in Whitchurch-Stouffville and install it with our own team. This guide breaks down what is in those prices, what moves them up, what other Ontario guides say, and how to get an exact quote for your home. It covers our custom front doors and custom back doors.
Custom Exterior Door Prices at EHI Custom Doors
| Door | Starting price, installed | Common use |
|---|---|---|
| Single front or front entry door | From $2,500 | Main entrance of a house, townhome or semi |
| Double front entry door | From $5,100 | Wider entrances that need more presence |
| Single back or back entry door | From $2,500 | Kitchen exits, side entrances, secondary access |
| Double back door | From $5,100 | Deck and patio entrances, French-style openings |
Starting price, not a flat quote
Every price on this page is where a custom fiberglass door starts, installed. It is not a fixed price. Your final price varies with the lock (single-point or multipoint), sidelights, transoms, glass, size, finish, hardware and more, and the sections below show how each one moves it.
What the Starting Price Includes
The starting price is an installed price. That means you are not adding a separate line for the door and another for the labour. It covers:
- Manufacturing in our own workshop, built to your measured opening
- Professional installation by our own team, with no subcontractors
- A final measurement visit by our installer before we build
- A lifetime warranty on the fiberglass slab, frame and brickmould. Hardware, glass and installation labour are not covered unless stated separately.
We do not add hidden fees after you approve the quote. One point to know up front: if your existing frame needs replacing as well, the price goes up based on size and hardware. Our installer checks the opening at the final measurement visit, and a few clear photos with your first request help us flag it early.
What Changes the Price of a Custom Exterior Door
Two doors with the same starting price can end up at different final prices. The choices below do most of the moving.
| What you choose | How it affects the price |
|---|---|
| Lock: single-point or multipoint | A single-point lock secures the door at one point. A multipoint system engages several points along the frame, spreads force across the door edge and pulls the door tighter to the seal. Multipoint costs more than single-point. Back doors can also be ordered with a mortise lock. |
| Sidelights | One or two, their width and their glass. A door with sidelights is a wider unit, so the frame, trim and opening work grow with it. One published Ontario guide puts sidelights and upgraded glazing at roughly $600 to $1,200 extra. |
| Transom | A glass panel above the door adds material and build time. A rectangular transom is simpler than an arched or elliptical one, which is a custom shape priced to the design. |
| Glass | Clear, privacy and decorative glass are all available. A single decorative insert, full-length glass, divided panes and larger panels each change the cost, and custom glass can add 1 to 2 weeks. |
| Single or double | Double doors start at $5,100 against $2,500 for a single, because they use two slabs and a wider frame. Our guide to single vs double entry doors helps you choose. |
| Size and custom sizing | Wider and taller doors use more material, and openings outside standard sizes are built to fit. |
| Frame replacement | If the existing frame needs replacing too, the price goes up with size and hardware. |
A second group of choices adds smaller amounts that still add up.
| What you choose | How it affects the price |
|---|---|
| Finish and colour | Oak grain, mahogany grain, smooth or contemporary, in a wood tone or a solid colour such as black or espresso. |
| Hardware | Handle sets and deadbolts in satin nickel, oil rubbed bronze or matte black, plus pull bars and other upgrades. One published Ontario guide puts hardware upgrades at $200 to $800. |
| Door style and panels | Flush and contemporary styles, executive or recessed panels, and the number of glass lites change the build. |
| Arched tops and curved shapes | Custom shapes are priced to the design. |
| Your opening | Brick, stone or stucco surrounds, an opening that needs to change size, and damage found when the old door comes out can all add work. |
More factors than any list can hold
Because every door is built to order, small details also move the price, and we cannot list every combination here. That is why we quote from your photos and confirm the opening at the final measurement visit.
Glass is the choice with the most room to move. Our guide to exterior door glass options shows how clear, frosted, textured and decorative glass compare, so you can decide before you ask for a quote.
Front Doors, Back Doors and Entry Doors: Does the Price Differ?
At EHI, the starting prices are the same for front and back doors: from $2,500 for a single and from $5,100 for a double, installed. A front entry door and a back entry door are both exterior doors you walk through, so there is no separate price list for them.
What differs is the design. Front doors usually carry more glass, sidelights, transoms and finish detail, and that is where the price climbs. Back doors tend to be simpler, from a single kitchen exit to a wide double door onto a deck, with glass and lock choices deciding the final number. Browse the door catalogue and photos of doors we have installed to see both, and read our guide to matching front and back doors to coordinate the set.
What Other Ontario Guides Say About Exterior Door Costs
Published prices online vary a lot, and most come from contractors and manufacturers, not independent studies. Here is a sample.
| Source | What it reports |
|---|---|
| Windows Canada, Ontario, 2026 | Mid-range fiberglass, installed: $2,500 to $3,500. Custom fiberglass with decorative glass and sidelights: $4,500 to $6,500. |
| Windows Canada, Canada-wide | Fiberglass door only: $1,500 to $3,000 basic, $3,000 to $5,500 mid, $5,500 to $10,000 or more high-end. Installation is listed separately at $500 to $1,500. |
| A Toronto custom door maker | Custom entry doors from about $3,000 to $15,000 or more |
The ranges are wide for good reasons. Some count the door only and others count it installed. Some are stock doors and others are custom. Some include sidelights and glass upgrades, and others do not. A number is only useful if you know what it covers, so compare the same scope: installed or not, frame or not, glass and hardware, and tax. Our guide to door manufacturer vs dealer shows how to compare quotes and check a company.
Costs to Ask About Before You Compare Quotes
- Frame: will it be replaced or reused? At EHI, replacing it raises the price with size and hardware, and our guide to replacing a front door and frame shows how to tell.
- Hidden damage: rot or uneven framing found when the old door comes out. One Ontario guide estimates $250 to $600 for framing repair, and our guide on when to replace an exterior door shows how to spot it early.
- Old door removal and disposal: confirm whether it is in the price.
- Opening changes: widening an opening, cutting a new one or turning a window into a door falls outside the Toronto permit exemption. See the permit notes in our guide on custom doors vs stock doors.
- Hardware upgrades: smart locks and premium handle sets sit above the standard choices.
- Tax: Ontario's HST is 13 percent, made up of 5 percent federal and 8 percent provincial, and it applies to most renovation work. Ask whether a quote includes it.
Ways to Lower the Cost of a Custom Exterior Door
- Keep the existing opening size. A same-size replacement avoids structural work, and in Toronto a detached, semi-detached or row house with one dwelling unit needs no building permit for it.
- Add only the sidelights and transom you will really use.
- Settle the glass early. Custom glass that is not readily available adds 1 to 2 weeks, and late changes can restart the build.
- Choose one finish and one hardware style for the whole project.
- Use financing. We offer a 6-month, no-interest financing option through Financeit Canada.
Rebates and Loans for Door Replacement in Ontario
- Home Renovation Savings Program: Save on Energy lists $100 back per rough opening for windows and doors. The door must be an ENERGY STAR certified model, and the rebate is part of a bundle that starts with a home energy assessment and includes two or more upgrades.
- Home Energy Loan Program (HELP): the City of Toronto lets homeowners borrow up to $125,000 for eligible upgrades, and window and door replacements are on the list. Loans are repaid through your property tax bill, and most projects need energy assessments before and after the work.
Check before you count on it
Program terms and dates change. ENERGY STAR certification belongs to a specific tested door, so ask any maker, us included, for the certification of the exact door you are quoting before you count on a rebate.
Is a Custom Exterior Door Worth the Cost?
A custom door costs more up front than a basic stock door, and what you pay for is fit, build quality and a warranty. Ours is built to your opening, uses a solid composite fiberglass slab, frame and brickmould (see the advantages of fiberglass doors), and holds its colour and finish for years without repainting. The lifetime warranty covers the fiberglass for as long as you own the door. If you are still comparing materials, see fiberglass vs wood vs steel doors.
We do not promise a resale figure or a specific energy saving. For the honest numbers and a full comparison of custom against stock, read our guide on custom doors vs stock doors. Customers describe the experience in their reviews.
