How do you guys accurately estimate a custom cage? I've heard people saying they charge per point? How much per point?

im not talking about pre bent cages. How are guys quoting CUSTOM CAGES

 

for a fully TIG welded cage i am charging 2250$ that is a 10 point, with gussets and Nascar style door bars. 1 3/4 DOM tubing

 

Price out the total cost of materials. Price out the labor when you actually build your first one. Use that labor time to pick a reasonable price on labor for that particular "point" cage, and price the other ones you do relatively to that base you have. It's easiest to price out a cage by point (6,8,10 etc). For any small custom add-on's or requests it's just as simple as figuring the extra labor time and material cost for whatever it is.

And Toxic, is that the price using chromoly?

 

With nascar style door bars?


Do you work for $20/hr?

 

You don't know what nascar door bars are?

 

This is a nascar style door bar.

 

I like the other side very nice job post more pics

 

Must be for a road racing setup. A lot of them use that as extra protection

 

~200 a point for chrome-moly seems to be the norm. Although 6-8 point bars are usually priced cheaper. So say 13-1400 for an 8-point instead of 1600(at 200 a point).

 

no, my cage pricing is anywhere from 1800-2800$ depending on what it is. . .
