A couple of suggestions. I always pre-drill with a countersink bit any screws I put through. The chance of cracking is too high (especially with MDF jambs) even with skinny screws, and I prefer not to risk bridging and to have the screw head guaranteed be below the surface without bulging up the surface. (for when it comes time to finish) I try to have the shims from both sides so I don't create an angle that when the screw goes in could cause the jamb to pull in a bit on the unsupported side. You may notice at the bottom edge below the bottom hinge the jamb curls in a bit towards the door (9/10 prehung doors seem to suffer from this) I'll do a predrill and countersink about one inch from the bottom and put a screw there. The screw allows fine tuning to be able to pull in that bottom leg so that the gap is consistent top to bottom)
@thejohnhend Жыл бұрын
Yes I always like to run shims as intended, one going each direction so your shim is parallel/square to the jamb. The molding will support the cavity if you don’t but if you run screws into the jambs first they’ll pull the jamb out of square.

Put the door in the hole and (one guy on each side of the door) pushed it all the way to the left and marked, pushed to opposite side and marked. Then it's easy to center the door in the hole based on your marks. You plumb and shoot the trim on the hinge side. Level the top, plumb the other side and shoot away. Guy on the other side puts the shims in. We had it down to a science and knocked all the doors out quick. Very fast and solid install

You centered the door frame flush with the drywall by starting at the top but if the wall is off plumb by more than 1/4 of an inch, the door frame is going to be 1/4 inch out on 1 side and 1/4 indented on the other side

For hollow core doors I like to case one side & set the door by plumbing at the hinges & nailing through the casing into the framing. This is enough for a good initial set on a hollow core door & allows the casing to act as a depth stop. It also makes it really easy to check your gaps & make adjustments if needed. Once the door is initially set, you can open the door and go to the uncased side to add shims before nailing the jambs & casing the other side.

The only places I would differ is centering the hinge jam to the drywall instead of plumb. I'm a little OCD about doors swinging (even a little) under their own weight. I'd rather trim a jam if it's proud of the drywall if needed or cut jam extensions if they're to shy. But I know this isn't optimal for production work. The other thing I would do differently is the 3" screw. I shim the top right at the center screw of the top hinge and use a 3" screw the same color as the hardware through the center screw hole.

Several things: Start by making a 14" 'Eye shaped' block. 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" with a 6 1/2" taper both sides(1" flat spot on centre). Tapered to 1/4" one side(for finished floors) and 5/8" the other(for unfinished floors). Sand round the taper as to make a rocking block that performs smoothly. leave the two flat faces. This tool is now your DOOR PEDAL. Installation: Do all pre-measurements/plumb checks. Pre-stand your door in place on SPACER. Remove strike lock screw. Open door 90*. Place DOOR PEDAL under door ON CENTER. Angle door into finished position. While using the DOOR PEDAL(you will get the hang of it right quick). Set shims and screw upper HINGE SIDE. Hold level on inside of door to check for PLUMB, then check jamb for plumb. Set shims and screw bottom. Then do the same process. But check your door swing as well. It looked like YOUR INSTALL had a lazy close. I could be wrong. But would suspect by the way you shimmed, you have a trapezoidal/rhombic door opening. Proper shimming would solve this. As well, over time, the slight twist will effect the reveal. Especially on bathroom doors. the difference in a 10 year install and a 40 year install. DO NOT: Kick the door. You have a hammer and a block. Lean door against finished wall. LEAVE IT UNTIL YOU USE IT. Pre-nail shims. WASTE/REDUNDANT. Post-nail door. WASTE/REDUNDANT. Waste time dragging around a compressor from floor to floor. adding time-used to tools you don't need. WASTE. All presents you as more professional. Aaaaaand the painter won't hate you. Probably falls on deaf ears, but good luck. Tyler- Finish/Deficiency carpenter 20 years.

This is fine altogether but as a suggestion...before anything else, remove the door completely from the jamb. Then proceed with plumbing the hinge side after checking floor level and making adjustment to height. Next, use 2 foot level to check upper jamp and secure it to the header opening. Lastly, measure the opening of the jamb at the very top and work your way down the lock set side of the jamb ensuring the same width of the opening. Finally, reinstall door to jamb. This is how I've hanged doors for many years and it's always a perfect install while I never have to fight the weight or bulk of the door itself.

Pretty close to the way I use to do it but I never used a level b/c all I did was replacement. Had to balance between the paint lines. I would prep all the doors, bottom blocks and the latch keeper. Then put the door in the hole and pop a 16ga. up through the head. That holds it. Shim below the bottom hinge and shoot below it. That way you can pull the shim out if needed. Next it was a 16ga. with pressure @ the top hinge to suck it over. I would shim at the head on both sides, strong enough to hold it in place, balanced between the paint lines. The latch leg could go up or down, as could the hinge leg. Closing the door and temping the bottom of the latch leg. Paint line check... margin @ the head check. Margin check @ the top hinge to latch. Margin check @ the bottom hinge to latch leg. Check door hitting solid on the latch jamb. Nail the head and bottom shims. Always shim behind the bottom hinge shim. That's where the compression happens. Leave the top hinge free. If needed you can come back with a 2 1/2'' hinge screw. Then shim and nail at the latch. Did that for about 20 years. Never went to Door School. That's what worked for me. Got it down to 7 to 8 minutes after the prep. So that equal to your 10 minutes. But I was 47 when I started and gave it up around 67. Keep it up young man ;)
