How many hours to hang a door?

Question

I’m replacing some internal doors and want to know how long a professional usually takes to hang each door

Jason · Answer

Hi
To answer your question about time to hang a door. If the frame is square and true - roughly 1-1.5 hours inc all furniture. If the frame has twist, or an unusual size it’ll take longer. Be wary of anyone saying less time than that. The gaps on the door when finished should be no more than 4mm all round. 
Hope that helps.

On a construction site joiners are usually required to fit 5 doors a day,  for fire doors its less due to the weight.

To fit an internal door into a frame hinge and lock about 90 minutes on average depending on the frame

Around 1 to 1.5 hours for standard fitting the more complex the longer it would take.

No time is fixed...
Depends on frame mostly,some times 4 doors takes half day and 5th takes rest of the day...
Also depends on handles,sash lock etc 
Oak doors or solid doors are heavy and obviously takes bit more time in terms of safety etc
Anyway there is alot more to explain if someone is asking such question...if ur frames are in Good condition you are looking from 1 hour to 2 hours for each door
