The short answer

Door configurator software lets your buyers and dealers size, configure and price a door in 3D on their own, choosing only doors your shop can build. SBFS sets it up on your door rules and price list, with production files and a dealer portal around it. Quotes that took Door Builder's sales team about two and a half weeks now take a dealer four minutes, dealers reorder on their own, and the cart applies residential or commercial pricing at checkout. A door configurator is priced from a $4,000 one-time Pilot on your own site to $50,000 and up for the full channel, with a monthly fee on each build tier.

Loading the configurator

01— The problem

Quoting doors by hand

Quoting doors by hand is slow because doors are configured, not stocked: species, size, glazing, hardware and sidelites multiply into thousands of combinations. A rep matches each request to what the shop can build, prices it by hand and emails it back. Dealers wait on that loop for every quote and every reorder. When a door that cannot be built gets quoted, production sends it back.

02— What it does

What door configurator software does

It lets buyers and dealers size, configure and price a door themselves, only in combinations your shop can build, and hands production the files to make it. Each item below is something the demo above or the Door Builder build already does.

In this demo

Panel style

Flush, or a 1-, 2-, 3- or 5-panel Shaker, rebuilt as you pick.

Species

White oak, walnut, maple or paint-grade primed, each with its own price.

Door size

Width and height sliders that resize the door as you drag them.

Glass and hardware

A clear or frosted lite, a black or brass lever or a nickel knob, hung left or right.

AI mode

Describe what you want in plain words and the assistant sets the options for you, inside the same rules.

Live price

The estimate updates with every change and lists what each option adds. The prices in this demo are samples; yours come from your own price list.

For a door manufacturer

Sizes

Width and height are inputs, not a fixed list. The demo takes any leaf from 24 to 42 in wide and 78 to 96 in tall, and its spec sheet prints the rough opening for that size.

Shop rules

Combinations the shop cannot build are blocked as the buyer picks, with the reason shown: in the demo, a 5-panel door cannot take a glass lite. Door Builder's rules follow how its shop floor routes each door.

Pricing

The price updates with every change and lists what each option adds. Door Builder's cart applies residential or commercial pricing at checkout.

Production files

Every configuration in the demo downloads as drawings (PDF) and as cut files for the shop in SVG, DXF or G-code.

Dealer quoting

Dealers sign in to configure, quote and reorder on their own, and each one sees only its own orders. That is the portal SBFS built for Door Builder's dealer network.

Door Builder

Quotes that took Door Builder's sales team about two and a half weeks now take a dealer four minutes. Dealers design, price and order doors on their own, residential and commercial pricing applies by itself, and every order that comes in is a door the shop can actually build.

04— Fit

When a SaaS configurator fits better

A SaaS configurator fits better when you sell a fixed range of doors with light options through an online store: Zakeke connects to your store and says 3D goes live "in weeks", and it costs less to start than a custom build.

If you sell windows and doors through dealers and want packaged quoting software, look at the industry CPQ suites first. Paradigm says "Paradigm exclusively serves the building industry" and that "Our software simplifies the process of configuring, selling, and producing complex products like yours." (myparadigm.com, read November 9, 2026). Soft Tech V6, now part of Cyncly, is aimed at window and door fabrication: its page is titled "Soft Tech V6: Optimize fenestration production" (cyncly.com, read November 9, 2026). Configure One is CPQ for manufacturers in general: "Configure One is built for the reality of mid-market manufacturing" (configureone.com, read November 9, 2026). They fit when your dealers already quote inside one of them or your catalog matches its data model.

If your door rules already live in a Grasshopper model and your team can build around it, ShapeDiver may be all you need. If they live in SOLIDWORKS, DriveWorks is the closer fit: it says it can "Automatically create order-specific SOLIDWORKS® parts, assemblies, and drawings" (driveworks.co.uk, read November 2, 2026).

A custom build is worth it when the rules, dealer pricing and the link to production are the hard part, as they were at Door Builder. If a template covers your catalog, we say so in Diagnose.

05— Investment and timeline

What it costs and how long it takes.

The Pilot is one fee, credited in full to the build if you continue. Each build tier is a one-time setup plus a monthly fee for running and improving it, with Diagnose included and ending in a quote inside your tier.

Pilot

$4,000 one-time

Your own product live in a working 3D configurator on your own site, priced, with the full fee credited to the build if you continue.

Parametric

$20,000–$40,000 setup · $500–$1,500 a month

Any size the buyer types in, your fabrication rules, files for production, and a connection to your online store or ERP.

Build

Weeks 2–5

A first working version at a private link, with a new demo to review every Friday.

06— FAQ

Questions about door configurators.

Straight answers. If your question is not below, ask it on the call.

We publish our prices, from a $4,000 one-time Pilot on your own site to $50,000 and up for the full channel, with a monthly fee on each build tier; every tier and what moves the price within it is at sbfs.co/pricing.

Paradigm and Soft Tech V6 are packaged quoting and production software for the window and door industry, and a good fit when your dealers already quote inside them. SBFS builds the configurator around your own door rules and price list instead: buyers and dealers see the door in 3D on your site, and you own the code. If packaged software covers your range, we say so in Diagnose.

Yes. For Door Builder we built a B2B dealer portal where dealers sign in to configure, quote and reorder on their own, each account scoped to its own orders.

Yes. That is the demo we offer: book a call, tell us about one product you sell today, and we show it configured in 3D with your options. If it is a fit, Diagnose, about a week and included, ends with a spec and a quote inside your tier.

You do: all of the source code, the platform framework included, and the data, with no license or per-seat fee. The repository can live in your GitHub or GitLab.
