How are pricing guidelines for millwork shop drawings determined?

         Several factors must be considered when pricing millwork shop drawings, including the complexity of the design, the size of the project, and the materials used. In this brief, we will look at the various factors that influence the cost of millwork shop drawings and offer some tips on how to cut costs when necessary while maintaining high-quality drawings. 

Here are some common factors that affect Millwork Shop Drawing Pricing

The cost of millwork shop drawings can vary widely depending on several factors, including:
  • Complexity of the design: The more intricate the design, the more time and effort required to create the shop drawings, which will increase the cost, same as in any industry.
  • Size of the project: The larger the project, rooms, areas and so on, the more shop drawings that will be required, which will increase the overall cost.
  • Level of detail: The cost is also affected by the level of detail required in the shop drawings. More detailed drawings will take longer to create, increasing the cost. Affordable shop drawings is also a great option if you only need simple drawings like plan views and elevations.
  • Turnaround time: Pricing can be significantly impacted by how quickly millwork shop drawings are produced. In general, quicker turnaround times demand more resources and work, which can raise the cost. However keep in mind, longer turnaround times, may cause your project to be delayed and incur additional costs.
the hardwareHere are two practical ways to reduce the cost of millwork shop drawings:

  • Simplify the design: A simpler design will require less time and effort to create the shop drawings, which will reduce the cost.
  • Work with a reputable millwork fabricator: The cost of the shop drawings may be decreased by using the expertise of a reputable millwork manufacturer to simplify designs and choose materials.

Keeping this in mind, here are some suggestions for communicating effectively with a millwork professional:
  • Provide clear and detailed shop drawings: For efficient communication between the fabricator and the architect or designer, AG CAD Designs can offer clear and detailed shop drawings.
  • Specify the materials and finishes as well as hardware specifications: To avoid any misunderstandings, clearly outline the materials and finishes that must be used in the shop drawings.
  • Provide some detailed assembly or set-up instructions: To ensure that the finished product, when installed on-site, complies with specifications, the fabricator and installers will benefit from detailed assembly instructions that will help them understand the design intent.

     Finally, it should be noted that while millwork shop drawings are essential to the success of a project, doing so can be a bit expensive. However, good communication with the millwork fabricator is crucial for making sure the finished product complies with the requirements and design intent. By using these suggestions, we are confident you can lower the possibility of mistakes and expensive delays and guarantee the success of your final millwork project.​
