How difficult is it to carry heavy cases?

It is quite heavy so practically speaking how difficult it is to carry from front gate on ground floor to 2nd floor whenever need arise.

Well built cases will always be heavy. I have been using both Aluminum and Steel Full Towers for more than a decade now and box packed these things are heavy and bulky products. What makes it tricky to lift is the size of the boxes these come in. However, the sides of the box should have cut outs to help you lift the package so you should be fine. Will give you a nice workout! The Fractal even though a mid tower is roughly 13-14kgs. Ideally these cases should be kept on a stationary desk, floor after you build your system in them because they become significantly heavier once you put in all your hardware inside. I wouldn't mind carrying a fully loaded case/ chassis once in a while but if it's more than that I would get something smaller and lighter. Also, with a tempered glass side panel the risk of damage is more. I would open the side panel and keep it aside before lugging the case from one floor to another just to be safe then re-attach it when I have successfully moved the case to the desired place.
