What is a "bilco" door?

The "Bilco" door company made most of those metal 'bulkhead' type outside entry basement doors...the slanted ones...
They are very common in new England, not sure about the rest of the country
We tend to call them "Bilco" doors
Like calling facial tissues "Kleenex" or cotton swabs "Q-Tips" I guess

In answer to the OP, I've got to assume you are asking what you should charge to paint Bilco doors
Unfortunately only you know your expenses, overhead, and production rates, and someone else's numbers won't work for you
There's no 'standard' or 'going rate'
Call three different companies and you'll get three different prices
If you offer red carpet service you should charge more, if you're a Crackhead With A Brush Part-time Paint Company you should charge less

You should know your production rates for a Bilco door
If you don't because you haven't done one, you really, really should be able to get a coat in in under an hour (much less actually)

I'm a little high on Bilco doors alone because quite frankly the set-up-prep-and breakdown/clean-up takes way longer than painting the door, hardly worth it to drive out to the house for such a small job...especially if it needs two coats

R- painterof didn't mean you'll find the universal price everyone charges for a Bilco door if you search, he meant do a search on what to charge, estimating, and/or bidding and you'll find the info you need

This post sums it up pretty well:

But you'll find many others along the same lines
