Answer 3

It's usually pretty light. Doors vary in width and height, of course.

But, most doors are roughly 80 inches tall. It's the width that usually varies from 24" to 36".

Most hollow core doors are 28" to 32", and they weigh about 20-25 pounds, without the jamb (the wood frame around the door, which adds about 4-8 pounds depending on material composition.

In other words, if you are able bodied, you can hang it yourself, and if it falls on you, unless it's the freakiest accident in the world, it's very hard to get hurt. Now, a solid core door, unless you are a pro, get an extra person to help you for safety and for expense reasons. A solid core, wooden door can weigh 80 pounds or much more depending on circumstances; and they are way too expensive, if wooden, glass etc., to risk damaging.
