BOB SCHMIDT SHOWS YOU HOW TO INSTALL AN INTERIOR DOOR USING A NEW PRODUCT WHICH SIMPLIFIES THE PROCESS FOR THE HOMEOWNER AND NOVICE REMODELER WITH YOUR HOME REMODEL PROJECT. The name of this product has been changed to (The Quick Door Hanger) and may be available at home depot soonI told myself when I started making these videos that I was'nt going to make a video on how to hang a door there's a lot involved in it and it takes experience to learn how to do it properly but I found a new product and I think it'll give you a fighting chance The product that we are going to use to hang this door today is a relatively new product it's called Quick Plumb for Door Hanger it's made by Express Products I'm not sure where they're from but apparently they have a website and I believe they did have a video there and I have actually already watched it this is what they provide you in their package supposedly this is enough for doing two doors although I recommend you go to their site and take a look at the way they recommend doing it first uh... I want to do it a little bit different than their directions to try to help simplify the process for the homeowners and do-it-yourselfers I ran across this product at my wholesaler they were giving them away for free they want carpenters to start trying to use them and see what they think of them I did hang a couple of doors with them and I did like the results but there was still some tweaking and judgment calls that had to be made uh... I kind of went off of what they said and I added to it and changed the way you use them a little bit where I think it'll give you more of a fighting chance as a novice or a home remodeler to be able to to do this. As per their instructions they recommend that you come to about the center of the hinge you line this little clip up with the front edge the lead edge of the door and then with the screws provided put the three screws in making sure that this is kept tightly against the front of the door as you're doing it. Repeat the process with the middle and the bottom hinge As per their instructions repeat the process approximately opposite the hinge side that you've already put on according to their recommendations it's time to hang the door but I've got a little bit of a different way I'd like to see you try it directly opposite the clips you just installed on the hinge side of the door go ahead and install the remaining six clips on the opposite side of the door after you've installed it opposite the one on the hinge side go ahead and take a pair pliers and bend this flange out straight like this repeat with the other five on this side of the door on the hinge side of your door this tab is still going to be bent just the way it was sent at the factory directly opposite enough in all six locations you're going to have a another one where you had bent this flange straight-out according to their instructions measure approximately one-half inch in from your rough opening and put a mark do the same thing on the other three sides coming off of your mark making sure that this is dead level very important go a head and start making a line and make your line go all the way up and down the side of the door now that you have the plumb lines on all four sides of the door both sides it's time to take the door and put it in place take a level and put it on the top of your door as you see this isn't level what we're going to have to do is we're going to have to stick a shim underneath the bottom side of that door to make up for this difference here where it's too low on the hinge side tap the shim underneath the door until the header says level if this gets carpet you could probably just cut this shim off and leave it out underneath here and the carpet will fill the void if this is tile or hardwood what you'll have to do is cut the bottom of the jam off on the opposite side remove this shim and let it come down tight to the floor now that you're headers level it's time to start anchoring the door starting at the top hinge with about the same space on this side as the other side go ahead and run in your first screw with the top hinge screwed see these three little notches here find the little notch and the spot corresponding to it that is closest to it and put a mark now coming down to the one below it making sure that your marking in the same place on the little mark mark it here coming down below it again making sure you mark the same spot as it was up above which is here then what you need to do is line these marks up with that plumb line and put screws in these two holes Now starting on the opposite side of the door same side as the hinge
