Free Commercial Door Installer Service Agreement

One misaligned frame or a botched fire-rating means you're eating the cost of a six-figure lawsuit while the GC holds your check for ransom. If you don't lock down the specs in writing, you’re just paying for the privilege of working yourself into a debt hole.

Pro Contractor Tip

Include a 'Site Readiness' clause so you get paid a mobilization fee the second you show up to a job site that isn't ready for install.

Why use a written agreement?

Handshake deals are risky. As a Commercial Door Installer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

The GC wants me to fix someone else's warped frames for free—how do I stop this?

Use a 'Pre-Existing Condition' clause in your agreement; if the frames aren't square when you arrive, you stop work until a change order is signed to cover the extra labor.

How do I get paid if the client keeps delaying the 'final' walkthrough?

Define 'Substantial Completion' in your contract so your final payment is triggered when the doors are hung and functional, not when the client finally decides to show up.

I'm losing shop space storing doors because the site is a mess. Who pays for that?

Put a 'Storage and Handling' fee in your terms; if they can't take delivery by the agreed date, the contract ensures they pay rent for every day those doors hog your floor space.
