You can get a new door and frame installed for about the same cost.

I know cost of living differs, but I find it hard to believe you can get someone to buy and hang a door for $500. Gut check for me would be at least $1000, probably closer to $2k. Maybe 20 years ago you could get that for $500

I just spoke to somebody who asks $2200 labor and $1800 materials for a new door/frame

Yeah, that sounds much more like what I would have guessed.

They are standardized so it does not take long. One worker can easily do it in a day. But that day rate + travel is going to vary widely by location. I could get it done for $300 labor here in rural America. Plus the cost of the frame.
