Metal frames in blocks, crooked walls in tenements
In Widzew and Bałuty many blocks have interior doors hung on steel frames set into the wall. A new wooden frame can go over the old one like a cover, or the old one can be chiselled out. Chiselling it out means more work, dust and replastering, but you get a wider opening. Say in the job which option you want, or ask for a quote on both.
In the city-centre tenements, renovated one by one, the walls are crooked and the floors are rarely level. The installer then has to set the frame plumb despite the crooked wall, and sometimes trim the door so it doesn't scrape the new floor. Measure the height difference between the two sides of the threshold. It's a useful clue for the installer, because it decides whether packers will do or the frame has to be cut down.

Questions about door installation in Łódź
Chisel out the metal frame or leave it?
A cover frame is quicker and cleaner, but it narrows the doorway. Chiselling out gives the full opening and a new look, at the cost of dust and plaster repairs. Ask the installers to quote for both.
After the new floor went down, the door scrapes the panels. What can I do?
Trimming the door, which is in the price list, is enough. The installer takes the door off, cuts the bottom and seals the edge.
How should I think about door installation prices in Łódź?
The price list ranges are for Warsaw, so in Łódź treat them as a rough guide. The installer's offer is what counts, with travel included or added.
Who buys the doors and handles?
Usually you, and the installer prices only the labour. If you want them to buy everything, say so in the job and agree on the model.
