Don't know what vehicle you have but most interior door handles can be changed in under 15 minutes. So, the labor charge should be 1/4 hour.
depends on what type of door interior or exterior? Interior door for the slab go from $20 to $100 and an exterior door go from $80 and up.
The force exerted on a door handle depends on the weight of the door, the distance from the handle to the hinge, and how much force is applied to open or close the door. It can range from a few pounds to several tens of pounds.
The door handle is held on by one Phillips screw. Remove it. Slide the door handle forward about 1/2 inch to release it. It will still be connected to the rod that opens the door. Behind the doorhandle where the handle connects to the rod is a white plastic retainer attached to the handle and clamped around the rod. Take a screwdriver and pry (it doesn't take much force) the white plastic retainer away from the handle. It will pop off of the rod and remain connected to the door handle. Lift the rod up. Installation is the reverse and easier once you see how it's made.

Changing the door handle isn't very difficult. Which is good considering the cheap plastic they made them out of. The standard procedure pretty much applies; 1) Remove the interior door trim panel 2) Disconnect the linkage attached do the door handle 3)Change the door handle 4)Re-assemble I don't remember the details of what scews / bolts have to be removed, but the whole job is pretty simple. The only variation is for whether it is an inside or outside handle, and really that only changes the linkage that you remove. I have changed both an inside and outside handle, on opposite doors of course... Didnt take me long at all.
To remove the interior door panel you first want to unscrew and remove the interior door handle, hand hold, and mirror adjustment cover. Then you also need to remove the power door lock switch which you can pop out with a flat blade screwdriver. Once everything has been removed, you want to carefully pop the plastic inserts. The interior panel is pretty much completely held on by those little plastic "push pins." To remove the exterior door panel you must first remove the exterior door handle. To do this you have to remove these little plastic pins on the underside. Once they are removed, you lift up on the handle and slide it left or right to remove. Once this is done you must also loosen the mirror by taking off the inside cover and there should be three nuts that need to be loosened. Then you must locate and remove all of the torx-head screws that attach the door panel to the door.
The problem is that the plastic piece that attaches to the handle has broken. This part can be diffiult to find. I took off the interior door panel (be careful not to break clips) I used two bolts that fit the pull rod, 1- 3/16" eye bolt between them, placing the eye bolt through the door handle then a washer, a locking washer and nut to attach it to the handle Make sure not to tighten too much and the handle works great

In the centre of the door panel is a 400mm grey plastic moulding. In the top of this is the bit of the door panel you actually stick your hand in to pull the door shut. Pry this piece out with a flat-blade screwdriver, butterknife, etc. Behind that there are 2 screws. Remove these. Go round the whole of the interior panel and pull the plastic studs out. If you want to remove the top part of the panel, containing the interior door handle: * On the interior door handle there is a screw. Remove it. * Push the interior door handle towards the front of the car and pull out slightly. * Unclip the rod from the interior door handle. Don't just try to pull it out. * At the front centre of the top section, visible from inside the car, is a plastic fastener. At the bottom rear is another, concealed under the lower panel. Unscrew these (you may need to hold the outer part to prevent it from rotating as you unscrew the inner), then pop them out. At this point the lower panel is attached by the window winder. I couldn't figure out how to remove the window winder, but the whole panel can rotate around it, giving you access to the insides of the door. If you need access to the inside of the door: * Carefully peel back the vapour barrier on the door. The black paste is sticky and will reseal later, but try to not get too much of it on the door panel. If you need to remove the door handle: * Ensure the window is wound all the way up. * Remove two bolts securing the rear window guide rail. Now this guide can be flexed a little out of the way. * There is a silver metal part approximately 100mm tall securing the door handle and lock assembly. Optionally remove the bolt at the bottom. * At the top of this piece are two nuts, securing the door handle. The front one of these is easily removed. * The rear one is trickier, and must be accessed from the front side with a spanner (or wrench or pliers). To see what you are doing as you get tools onto this nut, there is a small access hole on the interior door panel covered by a plastic stick-on cover. Peel this cover off. * Pull the exterior door handle out. * Disconnect the rod on the exterior door handle. If you need to remove the lock: * Inside the door panel is a gold-colored retaining clip. Pull this forward to remove it. * Disconnect the rod from the lock. * Take the lock out from the outside of the door.

Open the driver's door and read the label on the door sill. It will say things like how much it weighs, when it was manufactured, and what year model it is.
it is easier to open a door using the handle, opening from the hinges is much more difficult... FACT
