    £150 - £200. Hopefully the doors are not fire doors - as that might require two people!

    Round door knobs will certainly be more difficult for young children because it's necessary to grip and twist to open them, rather than just pressing down on a lever handle.
    You say doors to be removed and rehung, but then mention new doors.  There is more work involved in hanging a new door than in rehanging the existing one, so hanging a new door will cost more.
