Hey Gina, so that's kind of hard to say but it's not super involved to install the Gorilla Lift part # GL1. The hardest part is just drilling into the top of the railing of your trailer to mount the unit. I attached a link to an install video for this for you to check out. You might send it to who you are wanting to install it and see if they can give you an estimate based on that.
