§ Why doors pros in Oklahoma City use Estimate.Pro
THE BID ENGINE.
## Door Estimating in Oklahoma City Takes More Than a Price Sheet
Oklahoma City's construction market runs hard. New residential builds in Moore, Yukon, and Edmond keep door contractors juggling multiple bids at once. Commercial retrofits downtown and in Bricktown add a different layer — steel hollow-metal frames, fire-rated assemblies, ADA-compliant hardware packages. If you're quoting both sides of that market, you know one flat rate sheet won't cover it.
Estimate.Pro is built for door contractors who need accurate, sendable bids fast — median time from walkthrough to bid is 8 minutes.

## What Makes Door Estimating Different in OKC
**Wind and weather load requirements matter here.** Oklahoma sits in Tornado Alley. Oklahoma City enforces the 2021 International Building Code with local amendments, and that means door contractors need to account for wind-borne debris resistance ratings on exterior doors, especially on new construction. A bid that ignores impact-rated or wind-load-rated door specs will get flagged at permit or, worse, after installation.
**Permit fees add up on commercial work.** Oklahoma City Building Safety Division charges plan review and permit fees based on valuation. A commercial door replacement or new-construction door package on a mid-size project can carry permit costs that eat into margin if you didn't line-item them at the bid stage.
**Labor rates in the OKC metro have moved.** Carpenter and door installation labor in the Oklahoma City metro runs higher than it did three years ago. If you're still pulling rates from memory or an old spreadsheet, you're either leaving money on the table or losing bids you should have won.

## How Estimate.Pro Works for Door Contractors
**Walkthrough → AI scope-of-work → priced estimate.**
You walk the job. You use the app to capture openings, frame conditions, hardware requirements, and any fire-rating or ADA notes. The AI scope generator turns that into a structured line-item list. You confirm, adjust, and send.
**AR Measurement on Supported Devices**
For rough opening dimensions, Estimate.Pro's ONNX-assisted AR measurement tool gives you live measurements on supported devices. For camera or photo inputs, dimensions are flagged as estimates — no false precision.
**Saved Material Cost Workspace**
Door pricing swings with supply chain. Your saved material cost workspace lets you update door unit costs, frame costs, and hardware packages in one place. Every future bid pulls from current numbers, not whatever you typed last quarter.
**Pre-Built Door Scope Items**
Estimate.Pro includes scope templates covering:
- Residential exterior and interior door installation
- Hollow-metal commercial door and frame assemblies
- Fire-rated door assemblies (per IBC and NFPA 80 requirements)
- ADA-compliant hardware and closer packages
- Storefront and aluminum door systems
- Overhead and specialty door rough-in coordination
You edit to match your job. You don't start from scratch on every bid.
