I love the critics and their detailed opinions. Doors can be hung many different ways. Nice job.

[brettcallahan]

I can't believe this video only has 97 views almost a month later. Great straight forward, informative video without any extra crap. I learned a few good tricks from this that I never knew. Keep making more helpful vids like this. Thanks!!!

That hack helped tremendously. I finish nailed the shims in place after I taped them in position. Thank you thank you

[yoshiodelvillar]

Thank you for sharing what you know, very helpful.

Thank you, I’m about to hang some prehung french doors in front of my office opening. I a little worried 😧 because I’ve never done anything like this before, but to pay 💰 someone would cost me more than the doors 😢. The shim trick is just what I needed to see. Thanks for sharing and I will follow up next week to let you know how it went. 😊

This video was so helpful. We successfully hung our prehung double doors using it!

[fbanda]

Love all the snooty professionals that know everything. If it works and looks good who cares god damn! I love the simplistic KISS approach.

The doors I am installing already has trim attached. One side pulls off. Makes it easy.

[allenr]

The two things that would get me thrown off the job would be #1 lifting up the jamb off the floor. You set your low side and cut your high side even if you have to cut the door also.#2 using screws in the finished face. You take the door stop off and put the screws behind it and/or you take the screws out of the hinge and put them behind those. And # 3 is what i do which is glue all my miters and PL the back of my casing..

Ty I’m trying to convince my wife we can do this ourselves 👊🏽

[MarkandSandieInMotion]

Some good pointers. You have a tough group of viewers, lol.

[armandoortiz]

In the end after doors are in, will you be able to see the 3 in. SPAX screw heads....? becuase i've never seen screw heads showing in a door jamb....

[NakdTalk]

Bros a fuckn nerd. Thanks for the refresher buddy ❣️

[agent]

Do you just take out the shims on the bottom after fastening the sides in. Is it okay to float at that point?

[Rainingsandstone]

So the walkway I'm installing doors too was cut large 1inch on top and 2inch on the sides after removing trim. The trim is 1/2inch thich and already flush (held by shims) haha. My question is besides the look of the doorway do I absolutely want to remove the trim and if so -- is 2 inches to much to use shims or can I also cut 2x4's to do essentially the same!? Anyone that sees this thank you in advance.

[rangerlump]

Noob Question: My opening is 76". Because most prehung doors come in 72'. Can I make up that difference by adding an extra vertical 2x4 on each side of the door frame assembly?

[stephendudash]

Your doors were still hitting when you went to close them. What did you do to make them close easily?

[patrickkelly]

Do you have a video for installing the door hardware (doorknob) for doors like this.

[tiersolutions]

Next time will you show people exactly what to do to change each reveal? Thank you for the video

[phaserider]

Does that door actually function well or does it still rub in the center?
