Interior doors

Today we learnt how to hang interior doors including wardrobes we started by finding the high side of the door opening and then packed up the hinge side to make sure it was high, the opening hinge side was then packed out, the door was then hung from this side, the gap around the door was then checked for winding and to make sure it is even, once we were happy the other side was packed and nailed off.
