AI-Powered Takeoff and Estimating Tools for Doors and Hardware Contractors
Are your bids opening enough doors for you?
Estimating for doors and hardware projects comes with unique challenges. Our AI-powered digital tools help you streamline your workflow, reduce manual work, and bid faster with confidence.
Products for Every Step of Your Workflow
Doors and hardware bids can stall when you are counting doors, frames, hinges, and hardware sets by hand across dozens of drawings. Our digital tools help you measure faster, reduce missed openings, and submit accurate, competitive bids in minutes instead of days
On-Screen Takeoff®
- Use AI-powered takeoffs to return footprint, net area, linear, and count quantities in seconds, including doors and other openings, so you can review results instead of starting from a blank page.
- Improve accuracy when you count doors, right- and left-hand swings, frames, handles, locks, stops, and hinges directly from digital plans.
- Share digitized plans and takeoff between the office and the field so estimators, PMs, and installers stay aligned on counts and scope.
Quick Bid®
- Turn On-Screen Takeoff quantities into detailed estimates that cover doors, frames, hardware sets, and labor for installation crews.
- Build and reuse pre-built assemblies so a complete hardware set, from hinges to closers, can be added with a single selection.
- Create professional, itemized proposals that clearly show owners and GCs how your doors and hardware package is scoped and priced.
Digital Production Control®
- Give your crews a clear plan each morning that shows how many doors are scheduled for installation, based on your Quick Bid estimate.
- Track daily progress and automatically flag when production falls behind so you can adjust crews or sequencing before the schedule slips.
- Maintain detailed documentation of production, client changes, and approvals that you can reference if questions or disputes come up later.
How Doors and Hardware Contractors Are Using AI-Powered Takeoffs to Save Days of Manual Work
Takeoff Boost™ has unique tools designed for doors and hardware contractors, which cuts takeoff time by up to 95%. See how AI-powered tools can eliminate time-consuming tasks by automating measurements, so doors and hardware professionals can focus on pricing, strategy, and winning more bids.
Net Areas
Automatically segments each room and calculates net area along the inside edge of exterior and interior walls.
Footprint Areas
Detects and measures building footprint along the outside edge of exterior walls.
Ceiling Areas
Finds ceiling areas and splits them into gypsum board (GWB) and acoustical ceiling tile (ACT) or by ceiling type when specified.
Wall Linear Footage
Calculates total wall linear footage for standard walls on architectural floorplans.
Walls by Type
Breaks wall linears out by partition type when those types are labeled on the plan (e.g., different stud/gypsum assemblies).
Wall Surface Area
Generates painting linears for both sides of interior walls, giving painters a fast baseline for surface area quantities.
Existing Wall Detection
Identifies existing walls so you can exclude them from new work and avoid over-counting when bidding remodels, build-outs, or partial renovations.
Windows and Window Types
Finds windows and can classify them by window type based on plan tags and symbols.
Doors and Double Doors
Detects and counts doors and double doors, including location on the plan.
Plumbing and Building Fixtures
Counts toilets, sinks, bathtubs, and other fixtures so trade contractors can skip manual symbol counting.
Right-Click Reassignment
Quickly reassign results to your own Conditions with a right click, so quantities flow into the naming, phasing, and assemblies you already use. Learn more.
Delete Results
Delete unneeded takeoff results without losing the Conditions themselves, keeping your structure clean while you refine results. Learn more.
Edit & Move Conditions
Rename, recolor, move, and group Conditions so results fit your naming and organization standards. Learn more.

Frequently Asked Questions
Door estimating software helps contractors measure quantities and build bids directly from digital plans instead of paper drawings and pocket calculators. With On-Screen Takeoff, you click and drag on plans to measure linear footage, square footage, and item counts, then pass those quantities into Quick Bid and Digital Production Control for pricing and tracking.
On-Screen Takeoff improves accuracy when you count doors, swings, frames, handles, locks, stops, and hinges across a project, and it keeps that information organized by opening type. Combined with Takeoff Boost, you can use AI to return a first pass of area, linear, and count takeoff in seconds, then review and refine the results for each door package.
On-Screen Takeoff captures your roofing quantities and sends them directly into Quick Bid, where you assemble priced estimates, apply your material database, and handle last-minute revisions automatically. No re-entering numbers, no version confusion.
Digital Production Control connects your estimate to the job site, tracking labor production and completed work in real time. It also maintains a clear project record, useful if disputes arise over schedule or scope, and generates the production history you need to bid future roofing work more accurately.
This helps you spot underproduction early, adjust crew size or sequencing, and narrow the gap between estimated and actual productivity on every concrete project.
