Key takeaways

  • Vinyl sliders are the value option; mirror adds roughly 15%, with glass and timber at the top.

Replacing wardrobe doors in Adelaide costs between $600 and $1,600 per opening, supply-and-installed and GST inclusive. Plain vinyl sliders sit at the bottom, mirror in the middle, and glass or timber at the top. Because a door swap keeps the existing carcass and interior, it is usually 60% to 80% cheaper than rebuilding the whole robe, which makes it the best-value wardrobe upgrade there is. This guide gives the real Adelaide bands and what moves the number.

These are indicative supply-and-install ranges, priced per opening:

  • Vinyl sliding doors (value option, single or double opening): $600 to $1,000.
  • Mirror sliding doors (most popular, makes rooms feel larger): $800 to $1,600.
  • Glass or timber sliding doors (premium finishes): $1,200 to $1,600+.
  • Hinged door replacement (per set, simpler hardware): $500 to $1,200.

What drives the cost of new doors

Finish

Vinyl is the value choice. Mirror adds roughly 15% over vinyl and makes a small room feel larger, which is why it is the most-requested finish in Adelaide bedrooms. Glass and timber sit at the top. If you are torn on finish, the door style selector narrows it down.

Opening width and panel count

Wider openings need more or larger panels, so a 3.6m triple opening costs more than a 1.8m single. Standard opening sizes are cheaper than a custom-cut span.

Sliding vs hinged

Sliding tracks add hardware cost but save floor space. Hinged sets are simpler and often cheaper. Which suits your room is a real decision, covered in sliding vs hinged wardrobe doors.

Track and carcass condition

If the existing bottom track is worn or the opening is out of square, common in older Prospect and Norwood homes, the installer may need to re-square or re-track the opening, which adds to the figure. A good measure flags this upfront.

Why a door swap beats a rebuild

If the carcass, shelving and rails are sound, there is no reason to pay for a new robe. New doors modernise the room, fix jammed or sagging fronts and cost a fraction of a full built-in. A whole new robe runs from $1,200 to $8,000 or more, so a door-only refresh at $600 to $1,600 is the clear value move when the bones are good.
