Does anyone know of anyone that can install these, and if so, how much it usually costs?

You will never be any good at diy if you never try.
Watch a few youtube videos and then get the power tools and chisels out.
You then get the satisfaction of doing the job and the saving of a days money for the chippie.1 -

I hung 18 doors in my house a couple of years back. I made it a tad easier by making up router jigs for the hinges, locks and striker plates. Take your time and remember your CSE woodworking from 30 odd years ago and most should be OK.Baldybonce said:

DIY is good fun but I really suggest you don't start by trying to hang two doors.0
