Arizona labor market for garage door
Arizona's labor line is priced from 3 trades, each compared with its US median wage. After weighting by each trade's share of the work, the state comes out at 0.97 times the national level.
Carpenters (47-2031), 60% of the weighting: a median of $28.17 an hour, 3% below the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $23.02 and $33.57 an hour. About 16,230 work in the state. That is 50.1 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
For electricians (47-2111, weighted 20%) the local median is $29.36 an hour, which is 3% below the national $30.38. The middle half of them earn between $23.25 and $37.05 an hour. BLS counts 21,140 of them working in the state, 65.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 48.7), so the local bench is deeper than average.
For general maintenance and repair workers (49-9071, weighted 20%) the local median is $22.90 an hour, which is 4% below the national $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $19.00 and $29.15 an hour. BLS counts 39,000 of them working in the state, 120.4 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 98.4), so the local bench is deeper than average.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($33.57 an hour) would add about $70 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($23.02) would take off about $70. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 3,239,430 jobs across Arizona (May 2025), which is 2.1% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |

| Carpenters (47-2031) | 60% | $23.02 | $28.17 | $33.57 | $29.12 | 0.97 | state |

Basic, standard or premium: Arizona prices

Basic single door, standard steel panels
Standard
$1,550 to $2,700
Insulated double door with windows
Premium
$2,400 to $3,550

If you are planning more than one job in Arizona
Each project weights the trades differently, so Arizona's wage level does not push every price by the same amount. Compared with the US midpoint, concrete driveway is −1% and front door −4%.
| Project | Size | Range | vs. US |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detached garage | 576 sq ft | $27,900 – $55,900 | −4% |
| Concrete driveway | 600 sq ft | $3,600 – $9,150 | −1% |
| Storm door | 1 door | $340 – $910 | −4% |
| Front door | 1 door | $480 – $2,400 | −4% |
| Window replacement | 10 windows | $4,350 – $14,400 | −4% |
| Patio door | 1 door | $580 – $5,800 | −4% |
Why two Arizona quotes can differ
Door size and style
A standard door with 4-5 rectangular panels is $400-$1,400 before installation; add windows and it's $600-$2,500 (HomeGuide).
Opener
A new opener is a separate line at $300-$900 installed.
Labor
Installation labor is about $200-$500, so the door itself is most of the bill.
Permit
Like-for-like replacement often needs no permit. Opening up the wall or adding wiring can.
Extras that change the Arizona total
Add-ons start from national price ranges and are scaled by 0.96 for Arizona, which is the average of the area's wage index (0.97) and goods price index (0.95). The estimator above can add them to your total.
| Add-on | Local range |
|---|---|
| Add a new opener (flat) | $290 – $860 |
Which Arizona city is cheapest for garage door?
1 of the 6 metros sit above the statewide midpoint of $2,100, and the top-to-bottom gap is 5%. Each row prices the default size with that metro's own BLS wages and BEA price levels, so the gap between rows is real local variation rather than a flat markup.
| Metro | Range (1 door) | Midpoint | vs. state |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phoenix, AZ | $680 – $3,550 | $2,100 | +1% |
| Flagstaff, AZ | $670 – $3,550 | $2,100 | level |
| Prescott Valley, AZ | $660 – $3,550 | $2,100 | −1% |
| Tucson, AZ | $640 – $3,450 | $2,050 | −3% |
| Yuma, AZ | $640 – $3,450 | $2,050 | −4% |
| Lake Havasu City, AZ | $630 – $3,400 | $2,000 | −4% |
Arizona seasons and garage door
Weather decides when exterior installation can happen, and Arizona is not uniform. The table uses NOAA's 1991-2020 climate normals from the weather station nearest each metro we cover, and counts the months that are neither cold nor hot enough to complicate the job.
Prescott Valley has the longest comfortable season of the metros we cover in Arizona at 11 months (August through June); Yuma has the shortest at 6 (November through April). Rainfall runs from 3 inches a year in Yuma to 21 inches in Flagstaff.
We do not adjust prices by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. Timing is still worth raising when you collect bids.
| Metro | Jan avg low °F | Jul avg high °F | Precip (in/yr) | Comfortable months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Phoenix | 44 | 104 | 9 | 7: October through April |
| Tucson | 41 | 100 | 11 | 7: October through April |
| Prescott Valley | 26 | 90 | 13 | 11: August through June |
| Yuma | 48 | 107 | 3 | 6: November through April |
| Flagstaff | 18 | 82 | 21 | 10: February through November |
| Lake Havasu City | 43 | 109 | 4 | 7: October through April |
