Internal Doors Supplied and Fitted Across the Capital
One team measures, supplies and fits every door — from a single Swords replacement to a full house package near Blanchardstown. One visit, one invoice, one team accountable for the finish.
The capital is mid-way through its strongest housing period on record
New builds and renovations are both running at pace, and that means thousands of Dublin properties are being handed over — or refreshed — with doors that owners want to upgrade quickly.

Doors are the entire business, not a sideline
East Coast Doors is a family run internal door supply and fit company based in Julianstown, Co. Meath, just off the M1 into Dublin. Because doors are all we do, our fitters spot problems a generalist carpenter often misses — an out-of-square frame, an uneven floor level, a hinge system that needs a different approach.
Every door we quote is measured by someone who fits doors for a living, not a sales rep working off a catalogue. If a hinge needs adjusting after fitting, our team comes back and sorts it. That is part of why so many Dublin bookings come from repeat customers and referrals across the same streets and estates.
More About Our TeamA finish for every kind of Dublin home
Not every home wants the same look, so we stock and fit a wide range of finishes rather than pushing one standard door.
Flush Doors
A smooth, minimal look for new builds and apartments, and our fastest-moving finish for landlords and developers.
Oak Doors
The most requested upgrade for period Dublin homes in Dun Laoghaire and Clontarf, where grain and warmth suit older joinery.
White & White Oak
The safest resale choice for South Dublin renovations, with white oak adding subtle grain underneath the finish.
Slate Grey
The fastest-growing style with new build buyers who want a contemporary contrast against light walls.
Glazed Doors
Bring extra light into narrow Dublin hallways — common in terraced and semi-detached housing built before open-plan layouts.
Fire Doors
Increasingly requested for apartment blocks, rental conversions and attic conversions where regulations require a rated door.
Custom Sizing
Cut to exact size for Georgian conversions, older terraces and non-standard attic openings.
Hardware
Hinges, handles and locks sourced in the same visit, from period brass to brushed steel for modern apartments.
Working out from our East Meath base into the city and suburbs
North Dublin
Our most active patch: Balbriggan, Skerries, Swords, Malahide, Rush and Lusk — a short run from our Julianstown showroom.
South & West Dublin
We travel regularly into Blanchardstown, Lucan, Clondalkin, Tallaght and Dun Laoghaire, and can quote for Dublin City centre projects on request.
Commuter Belt Overlap
Sitting on the Meath and Louth border, we naturally cover Drogheda, Ashbourne and Duleek. Not listed? Get in touch — we add routes weekly.
| Dublin Area | Typical Property Type | Common Request |

A simple four-step process, built for busy Dublin schedules
Free Home Measure
A fitter visits, measures every opening and talks through finish, glazing and hardware — no obligation to book.
Supply From Our Stock
We supply doors, frames and hardware ourselves rather than outsourcing, so lead times stay predictable.
Fit In One Visit
Our own trained fitters hang every door on the agreed date, checking level, swing and closing action.
Clean-Up Before We Leave
Old doors, packaging and offcuts go with us, so your hallway isn’t left full of sawdust.
What actually moves your quote
- Door count — fitting five doors in one visit is more efficient per door than a single replacement.
- Frame condition — a square, sound frame can often be rehung into; a warped or damaged one needs full replacement.
- Finish & glazing — pre-finished oak and glazed panels sit above standard white primed flush doors.
- Access — apartment deliveries, parking restrictions and lift access all affect scheduling.
Labour costs are climbing. Dublin’s average hourly construction labour cost reached €34.22 in Q2 2025, up from €30.85 a year earlier, according to CSO Housing Hub data. Booking your fitting date early in the year tends to protect you from tighter scheduling later in peak season.
Different housing stock, different door issues
Period Homes With Uneven Frames
Older properties in Ranelagh, Drumcondra and Dun Laoghaire have often settled, leaving frames slightly out of square. We check and adjust the frame first, rather than forcing a straight door into a crooked opening.
Apartments With Humidity & Wear
Bathroom and utility doors in newer apartments often swell slightly with humidity. We recommend moisture-resistant finishes for these rooms during your free measure visit.
Builder-Grade New Build Doors
Many new owners find developer-fitted doors feel thin and inconsistent next to the rest of the finish. With apartments at over 70% of 2025 completions, this is now one of our most common upgrade requests.
Why specialists, and why bundle the whole house
Room by room
- Several separate visits over weeks or months
- More disruption to the household overall
- Useful if only one door needs replacing
Full house package
- One measure visit, one fitting day for most 3–4 bed homes
- More cost-effective per door than fitting one at a time
- The route most new build owners choose after handover
A general carpenter suits one-off jobs like a shelf or a skirting repair, but doors need to be measured, ordered and hung as one continuous process. A specialist door supplier carries stock relationships a general tradesperson doesn’t, which shortens your wait during Dublin’s current busy period.
Recent internal door installs across Meath & Dublin
A few of our own photos from recent supply-and-fit visits — every install carried out by our own fitting team, not a subcontractor.
Thousands of doors, thousands of five-star reviews
Three doors fitted in one visit, finished cleanly and the crew tidied up completely before leaving — a install she'd happily recommend to anyone.
Five doors installed in a day, with a finish that came in well ahead of what she'd expected going in.
High-quality doors fitted with no mess left behind, and a job the whole team was glad to recommend.
Measure before you order, not after
Irish internal doors follow a small set of standard heights and widths, but period Dublin homes and converted apartments regularly fall outside those norms. Our fitters measure every opening individually during your free visit, which avoids costly reordering later in the project.
A little upkeep in Dublin’s damp climate
Wipe pre-finished oak and white doors with a soft, slightly damp cloth rather than harsh cleaning products, which can dull factory finishes. Check hinges and handles every few months in high-traffic households, since daily use loosens fixings faster than most people expect.
Straight answers before you book
Do you fit doors in Dublin apartments with lift or parking restrictions?
Yes. We plan deliveries around building management rules and lift booking slots, and confirm access requirements with you before the fitting date.
How soon can door fitters in Dublin start after the free measure?
Most Dublin jobs are scheduled within a few weeks of your free measure visit, faster for single-door repairs and standard stock finishes.
Can you replace only the doors a Dublin developer fitted at handover?
Yes. Many of our Dublin customers are recent apartment or new-build owners upgrading from developer-standard doors to oak, white or glazed finishes shortly after moving in.
Do you supply fire doors for Dublin apartment conversions?
Yes, certified fire doors suited to apartment blocks, attic conversions and rental properties where building regulations require a rated door.
Is the home measuring visit really free for Dublin customers?
Yes, with no obligation to book. A fitter measures every opening and talks through finish and hardware options first.
Do you cover both North and South Dublin?
Yes — Balbriggan, Swords and Malahide in the north, and Blanchardstown, Lucan and Tallaght in the south and west, with Dublin City quotes available on request.
Can you match new doors to an existing Dublin renovation’s finish?
Yes. During your free measure we bring finish samples so you can match new doors to existing flooring, skirting or kitchen tones.
Do you offer trade pricing for Dublin developers and builders?
Yes, we work with developers and self-builders on bulk pricing and phased site scheduling. Get in touch to discuss your project.
