Changing door locks
I am trading my 1/2 doors for full doors, how hard will it be to change out the door locks? That is if they aren't electric door locks?

no need to re-key the locks if (I assume) you are just swapping the cylinders from one rig to another. If you take them out to re-key you might as well just swap them.
The cylinders are held in by C -type retaining clips. They are easy to remove but the latch assembly will be in the way.

that will take you to the instructions for assembling a 1/2 door kit.
Just reverse steps 14-15 to drop the presenter/latch assembly out of the way, pull the cylinders and swap them.
