Stainless mesh hinged door$700 – $1,300
Sliding or double door set$1,500 – $2,800
What affects the price
— Mesh / infill type. Aluminium grille is cheapest; woven stainless mesh certified to AS 5039 costs the most.
— Door format. Hinged is the baseline; sliding costs slightly more and double sets roughly double the price.
— Locks & hardware. Triple-point locks and quality closers add to the price but matter most for security.
— Frame colour & size. Non-standard sizes and custom powder-coat colours add to fabrication cost.
— Number of doors. Measuring and fitting several doors in one visit brings the per-door price down.
Tips before you post
— If security is the goal, look for doors tested to AS 5039/5040 — a flyscreen with bars is not a security door.
— A triple-lock is worth the small premium; single locks let the corners of a door be levered.
— Doing all your external doors at once usually earns a package discount.
