Need new doors...Whats a good price?

Question

I live in my duplex and it has wooden exterior doors that are close to 20 years old along with storm doors that need replacing pretty bad especially with winter in Wisconsin upon us soon. My door sizes are standard. I received several quotes and I am leaning towards some steel doors form Provia. So for 2 exterior doors and 2 storm doors with installation and a pretty good warranty for $5600. I was wondering how this price looks for people who have gotten similar services done.

I have always and will continue to use Mastercraft doors from Menards, Steel Pre Hung doors start at about $100 no window and about $150 with a window, and storms about the same, replacing the ext doors and installing storms shouldnt be more than 600 for both openings, so like @Marcus Auerbach said you should easily be able to have the job done at or below $1500

Marcus Auerbach · Answer

@Quantell Booker that is way to much money for a duplex. I would recommend fiberglass doors over steel, they don't ding up up like the metal does. Menards has good fibergalss doors; pair it up with a quality strom door from Larson (not their cheapest). You should be able to do the whole thing for under $1500 installed.

Im actually bringing my two duplex doors to a dip tank this weekend. They will dip them and strip off all the old paint, then I can paint them how I want them. These doors are original from the 50's, so they are solid wood and have a ton of detail in them. This will cost me around $625, rather than buy new cheap doors for $600 and have to re-hang them completely.
