There are several factors that contribute to the high cost of mobile home doors:

  1. Custom sizing: Mobile homes often have non-standard door sizes, requiring doors to be custom made to fit the specific dimensions of the home. This customization process can increase the cost of the door.
  2. Quality materials: Mobile home doors are typically made with high-quality materials such as steel or fiberglass to ensure durability and security. These materials can be more expensive than traditional wood doors.
  3. Energy efficiency: Many mobile home doors are designed to be energy-efficient, with features such as insulated cores and weather-stripping to help reduce energy costs. These added features can increase the cost of the door.
  4. Installation costs: Installing a mobile home door can also be more complicated than installing a traditional door, as it may require additional framing or modifications to the existing structure. This can add to the overall cost of the door.


Overall, the combination of custom sizing, quality materials, energy efficiency, and installation costs all contribute to the higher price of mobile home doors compared to standard doors.
