DFH Takeoff
Done in Minutes
Send it your door and hardware schedules the way you'd send them to a colleague. It reads the drawings, asks you the questions it can't answer on its own, and sends back a finished Excel takeoff.
$95 per project · $125 with saved project history and hardware pricing. No subscription.
34 openings. Two things before I price this:
Conflict
The frame column lists HM-1 for interior openings, but the detail callouts show aluminum. Which governs?
Missing
Opening D3.3 (Secure Storage) has no hardware group assigned. Should I carry one?
Hollow metal, per the schedule. Carry a lock set on D3.3 and flag it.
Done. Doors, frames, hardware totals, preps, and 9 open items.
Built by a working DFH estimator, for commercial door, frame and hardware estimators.

What you get
A workbook you can price from, not a pile of data.
Every takeoff comes back the same way. Open Items sits first, on purpose — you see what it wasn't sure about before you look at a single number.
Plus a tab for every door and frame type your project actually contains — hollow metal, wood, aluminum. No aluminum frames, no aluminum frames tab.
