Not sure if you're ready to replace your doors?
If you're replacing entry doors, the most common options are steel, fiberglass, and wood. For patio doors, sliding doors and french doors are also popular. If the door frame has rotted or shifted but the door itself is still in good condition, you may be able to replace the door frame and keep the existing door.

Phoenix climate: extreme heat, UV exposure, monsoon season.
Intense UV and heat make fiberglass and steel the more durable choice over wood in this climate. Wood doors need far more frequent refinishing to avoid cracking and fading under constant sun exposure.

Installed cost in Phoenix runs roughly 2% below the national average for this trade. Here's how we got to that number.
Project costs include three main components: labor, materials, and overhead. Material ships at national prices no matter where you live, and overhead is fairly consistent as well. So the main pricing difference between metro areas is labor costs. This is why a quote from a high-wage metro is rarely as far above the national average as people expect.
To get Phoenix labor costs, we compared the average hourly wage in the Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ area to the national average hourly wage for this trade. (source: US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025)
We found that the local trade wages sit about 8% below the national figure. Labor costs typically make up about 20% of a door replacement project cost, so the weighted difference between Phoenix and national averages is −2%. See methodology and sources.
It depends on the scope of your project, so you should talk to the permitting authority to find out what your project needs. In general, Phoenix permitting is simple compared to other metros we cover.
City of Phoenix permits via phoenix.gov/pdd.
You should ask each contractor if they pull the permits for you and if the fee for pulling permits is included in their quote. Also, tell them you need to see the written, approved permit before work starts.
