This video is really good. I'm remodeling a rental property and replaced 3 bedroom doors. The painter said he could hang the doors but after 3 attempts (and many nail holes/frame damage) I had the young man watch the video with me and we hung the door together. We both learned how to do it and door looks great. I taught him how to educate himself when he doesn't know what the hell he is doing 😂 and you taught him to hang doors. Thanks!

@paydirtmine Год назад

Great job, Hunter Carlson! If I had only watched your video 8 door installations ago. The good thing is that I still have six more installations to go and I will definitely use your method!

@skipmcgrath Год назад

This is a great video, especially if you watch the 5 minute version first. Allot of new guys watch an old pro do something and have no idea how much focus and concentration is involved. The two videos together are great training material for beginners.

@edschultz5718 Год назад

This is exactly how I hang doors at work. Significantly faster than shimming the opening first. Glad I finally found someone doig it in a video.

@gonzalofenix777 Год назад

Exactly this is the best way to do it, I’m doing installation doors in mass production and this the way work best for me

@domo8676 5 месяцев назад

Yes, that's how it's done. I posted your link to several amateur trim carpenter youtube that claim they know what's best.

@roomwithaview4195 Год назад

I really enjoyed this video. I am a retired trim carpenter from Texas. I think that you did a really nice job. I just have 1 comment that you might find useful. When you're hanging the pre-hung unit. After you've gone through setting the hinge side and the header, before nailing off the strike side. Take a 1-3/4 paddle bit slide the shaft between the hinges and gently close the door " not all the way but just enough to slightly bend the hing." Do this to each hing this will help to establish the margin on the hing side of the door. You might also use your pencil for this as well. Thank you

This is by far the best video on installing doors. I just hung 3 doors, first one took about 20 minutes and the others were less than 10. I am not a finish carpenter, I don’t even work in construction but I do a lot of DIY stuff so I’m pretty handy. Thank you for this video, made this process so much easier for me 👍👌🙏🤙 Mahalo!!

Great video. I had three solid core doors to install on a remodel this weekend. Since it was ten years since I last installed an interior door, I hit RU-vid for a refresher. Came across your video....wonderful. I was taught to hang the door while shimming to level in both directions. I was taught sooooooo wrong, and hanging doors was intimidating. This weekend, they went up so easy and smooth with minimal issues. Thank you. Dave

@kalebbrown8130 2 месяца назад

I wanna try this method next time on an interior install. Still were able to address all the issues I thought were gonna be a problem. And plumbing off the hinges makes sense because factory hinges may be set slightly off and that’s what the door hangs from. I’ve never tried this method before, but it looks fun and fast so I’m definitely going to give it a go at some point.

This area in Castle Rock has stunning views that give you almost a 180 view of the Rocky Mountains! So happy to live in a beautiful state! I appreciate all the comments! I do need to integrate more safety like the use of glasses, ear protection, knee pads, mask for dust…there are certain times that I do have all of these present on the job, but not always. Part of it is falling into a routine not using these safety items and always coming out of the job harm free. You are correct, I need to be thankful nothing has happened yet and start using these things more often! Appreciate your time! Thank you for subbing and have a blessed day 😎

@charlespannier5389 Год назад

@huntercarlson5446 2 года назад

Keep the motivation going! This is the easiest door to install because it is light weight, it has a good quality build with the door stop nailed in the right position and I’m working with the easiest style casing…doors from other manufacturers can sometimes take much longer to get installed properly! Some can take me up to an hour to install…hope your pricing is set accordingly! Thanks for watching and have a blessed day 😎

@HousingSucks 3 месяца назад

I just wanted to say thank you very much for making this video and for the very entertaining and impressive sub- 5 minute install! I wish I had seen this video years ago before doing doors in our basement, all of which don’t quite fit right. I just hung a door in our garage and it took a lot of patience but this video was the key to making sense of it all and getting the gaps to be about the same. Thanks again for your help!

You can’t teach someone how to do something in a five-minute video. He made a step-by-step how-to, and you are focused on how long it took to explain instead of focusing on what you learned.

@giseliapereira5914 4 месяца назад

This is the first time I’ve ever seen trim installed before the door was installed. I guess it works something like a door jig. I have two solid wood doors that were cut short for an old opening, I don’t want to throw out the doors so I’m going to try to extend them, so I can reuse them in the new opening. I always seem to take on a challenge. Do you have a video on how to install doors that are not pre hung and do not have the door frame installed? The opening I have is like the one in the video, studs and drywall.

@BZ1340 Год назад

With the advent of thicker casings I assume the reveals change. We are now doing 3/4 thick 4 inch wide casings as the norm. So hinges cant pinch or the door handle latch plate. We also change door gaps depending on season they are installed. Humidity levels from summer to winter temp changes we have swings of plus 30 to minus 30 can swell doors a 1/8 inch we have encountered and their painted on all 6 sides
