Itemised garage door opener installation example
Each amount is its quantity multiplied by its AUD unit rate, rounded to cents. These 6 entries match the fixture used to make the PDF. Metric surface and length units describe the priced work, not a conversion rule for another property.
| Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Existing opener removal | 1 each | A$175.00 | A$175.00 |
| New opener allowance | 1 each | A$588.00 | A$588.00 |
| Mounting and rail allowance | 1 job | A$189.00 | A$189.00 |
| Opener installation labour | 1 each | A$546.00 | A$546.00 |
| Remote and wall-control setup | 1 job | A$154.00 | A$154.00 |
| Operation check and cleanup | 1 job | A$168.00 | A$168.00 |
| Subtotal / example total | A$1,820.00 | ||
Calculation check: 1 each × A$175.00 = A$175.00; 1 each × A$588.00 = A$588.00. The demonstration tax field is 0%, so the displayed total stays A$1,820.00. Determine tax and markup for your own work instead of using this input as guidance.
Assumptions and scope boundaries
This scope assumes a suitable existing door and track. A heavy or damaged door can require its own repair before a new opener is installed.
Outside this example: No garage door repair, spring or track replacement, new electrical power point, network support or unlisted accessory purchase.
Selections, access or concealed conditions that differ from this scope require a revised quantity, allowance or separate line. The example deliberately separates them so the client can see what has and has not been priced.
