What's Included in a Division 08 Door Takeoff Report
A typical commercial project with 3 to 5 floors can involve 180 to 400+ individual door openings. Each one carries specific fire rating, frame type, hardware set, and ADA compliance requirements. Our Division 08 takeoff report organizes every opening into a structured Excel file so your estimating team can price directly without re-counting.
Each report includes:
- Door schedule reconciliation - counts verified against both floor plans and the architectural door schedule. Conflicts flagged with notes.
- Opening-by-opening breakdown - door type, leaf size, swing direction, frame material, and fire rating per opening.
- Hardware itemization - hinge counts, closer types, lockset models, and panic device quantities organized by hardware set number.
- Level-by-level summary tab - useful for phased projects or multi-tenant buildings where floor-by-floor pricing is needed.
- Assumption log - every judgment call documented so your estimator knows what was counted and why.

Frequently Asked Questions About Door Takeoff Services
Do you quantify hardware sets separately?
Do you reconcile with architectural door schedules?
Do you separate fire-rated doors?
Do you include glazing or curtain wall takeoffs?
What format do you deliver in?
Structured Excel reports, ready for pricing and review.
How do you handle doors missing from the schedule but shown on plans?
If a door appears on a floor plan but is absent from the door schedule, we count it from the plan and flag it in the assumption log. This gives your estimator full visibility into schedule gaps before bid submission.
Can you break out openings by fire-rating category?
Yes. The report separates 20-minute, 45-minute, 60-minute, and 90-minute rated doors into clearly labeled rows. This is particularly useful for projects where rated doors require different hardware or frame specifications.
Do you cover storefront doors and aluminum entrances?
We count hollow metal, wood, and standard aluminum-framed doors under Division 08. Full storefront systems and curtain wall assemblies are excluded- those fall under glazing subcontractors and require a separate scope.
