Default Need to hang new interior doors

I will replace 2 or 3 interior doors after closing. I like glass doors for some rooms. Do you have an excellent carpenter that will transfer the hardware to the new doors and paint the new doors too. I will donate the three 8 ft doors to habitat for humanity or any other construction rehab charity. Suggestions on carpenters and charities welcome.

Do you mean 80" doors? Most doors are 6'8" or 80".

I would be concerned about the weight and the possible need for better hardware and hinges. I think the glass needs to tempered glass for safety.

The door company does use safety or tempered glass. I didn't think about the weight. I had these doors in home I sold last month, 23 years with no issues. I hope they don't give me problems in the new house.
