Why Upgrade Your Front Door?
A modern front door improves:
- Home security
- Thermal insulation
- Curb Appeal
- Durability
- Noise Reduction
- Increased Property Value
- Energy efficiency (lower heat loss)
Older doors often lack multi-point locking, proper weather seals, and modern insulation cores — which can affect comfort and security.

What Influences Front Door Replacement Cost in Ireland
While specific pricing depends on your home and preferences, several key factors influence the cost of replacing a front door in Ireland.
Door Material
uPVC, composite, aluminium, and timber vary in durability, performance, and cost.

Custom sizes, side panels, and decorative elements affect materials and labour time.

Insulated glass, decorative glazing, and advanced locking systems add value but also affect pricing.

Structural alterations, aging frames, or access challenges can increase installation complexity.
