Itemised garage door replacement 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 door removal | 1 each | A$364.00 | A$364.00 |
| Door and track product allowance | 1 set | A$2,030.00 | A$2,030.00 |
| Perimeter seal allowance | 1 job | A$189.00 | A$189.00 |
| Door installation labour | 1 each | A$1,190.00 | A$1,190.00 |
| Balance and operation check | 1 job | A$231.00 | A$231.00 |
| Old-door disposal and cleanup | 1 job | A$294.00 | A$294.00 |
| Subtotal / example total | A$4,298.00 | ||
Calculation check: 1 each × A$364.00 = A$364.00; 1 set × A$2,030.00 = A$2,030.00. The demonstration tax field is 0%, so the displayed total stays A$4,298.00. Determine tax and markup for your own work instead of using this input as guidance.
Assumptions and scope boundaries
The example assumes suitable framing and room for the selected track. Note any damaged jamb, slab or ceiling obstruction for separate review.
Outside this example: No new opener, framing repair, slab correction, electrical work or specialty opening modification.
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.
