Great job. I’m loving all your videos, very informative and to the point.
That's great to hear, and thanks for watching. I appreciate it.
Thanks for the video, really helpful. What size screws do you typically use for something like this?
You're welcome and thanks for the kind words. The size screws depends on the distance between the frame and the studs. In old homes, that distance tends to be greater and I'll use 3" screws. In the newer homes, the frames are tighter and I use 2" - 2.5". I want to make sure I have at least 1" of screw into the stud. Thanks for watching.
When you moved the hinges up, did your fill the screw holes and drill new ones?
No. I only had to move it up about 1/4" so the hinge covered all the holes. Thanks for watching.
I've just had a builder redo two rooms and the door frames are crooked to a point of being an inch out with a gap at the top and sides, frames are bigger than the doors. Looks like a case for the building commission to get this fixed, guess he's not the perfect builder he thinks he is.
In my experience, I can fix things that are up to 1/2" crooked by shaping the door. If you have crooked framing up to an inch, that's when I would take things apart and reframe them as that's un acceptable but more importantly something extreme is going on with the structure to cause that. For even when I worked in Los Angeles, I never saw anything that far off. Good luck and thanks for watching.
