Default Cheap or expensive?

My total costs for both pairs was a bit over $550. Of that, $275 was
for
lumber (rough); the next biggest cost - about $90 -was for screening
materials (7/16 x 1" aluminum channel material (set into dados in
rails &
stiles), the rest was for hinges, locks, surface bolts, some ply for
a
bending jig, door closers, weather strip material, paint, etc.

Based on your descriptions, my guess is you are looking at
$1,500/panel,
$6,000 for the job, for custom fit and hanging of those door panels.

Might get a break and get the job done for $5,000, but I doubt it.

Phew! I sure am glad I had a shop built when we built the house
