If you want to see how I install exterior doors then make sure to subscribe and ring the notification bell. That video is coming up in April. Cheers!
What about installing a prehung door in an opening that is all sheetrocked and no studs behind the jambs? Are screws and anchors enough and a few toggle bolts?
You are the best !! Thank you for all your videos !
Sweet! Next you really need to do one on replacing basement windows! Ok. I really you to do one replacing basement windows!!! Please! I'm begging you!
Watched for door hanging fun. Stayed for the lesson in healthcare! thanks
How bout that big gap on top of first installed door? Door trim will not cover?
This man's dad energy is off the charts and I love it.
I like how he works like a real handyman and shares his subtle frustrations while working. Makes it more entertaining.
At least he's honest about it.
You are unbelievable! Every time I have a job at home, you come out with a video with the exact thing. Thank you very much for the great work you do.
Cheers Darius, I suggest you buy an old 1880 home. that is coming up in April.Cheers!
Great video, Jeff! Very informative for DIYers. I'm a custom home builder in Colorado and your first method is the most similar to what we do when installing doors. It's always easiest with two people, but one person can do it - we leave the door and jamb together and check our gaps around the door and shim accordingly. We can check for plumb/level and make sure our gaps around the door look nice at the same time. Leaving the door on also lets us know instantly if it has the tendency to open or close by itself so we can adjust before nailing in completely. We use 2-1/2" finish nails with about 8 on each side (bottom, two in the middle, one at the top; one on each side of the door stop) and I find that filling the holes with lightweight spackle and a 1" putty knife leaves the best results for touch-up paint. Just thought I would share! :)
He is good and entertaining. Great at explaining not only how... but why. He should be on TV
30:41 - I'm definitely using the 'old fashoned' way for my first door hanging project:
1:48 Remove pins and set door aside;
4:15 Shim jamb to accommodate floor level;
5:46 Shim, plumb, and flush hinge side of jamb
9:30 Reinstall the hinge pins
9:58 Shim, plumb, and flush to fit strike side
I can do that, thank you very much.
My wife and I own a house built in the late 70s that was never updated. Going through the process of updating the whole house and building an extension. Have been using your videos to do the work my self. You have saved me a ton of money on hiring some one else to do the work. Thank you!
Cheers Brandon, glad to help. !
I appreciate the tips and the detail in this video showing "3 ways for installing a pre-hung exterior door." i really struggled through parts of the process, in particular trying to get the door hung and aligned properly. I must say though after listening to your "less than a ringing endorsement" of the the little metal shim brackets I was put off trying them. Fortunately I hit such a dead end in trying the traditional approaches that I went out and bought a package of those brackets. Saved my life. it finally dawned on me that i am a beginner, even though I know my way around tools and making/fixing things I had never attempted this task. In short, those little brackets are life-savers for beginners. Thanks for your video.
I have to thank Jeff and Home RenoVision extensively for all of these videos. I’ve remodeled my entire second floor from demo to paint watching these videos and added a second bathroom.
Way to go Justin. please send us pics to our Instagram so we can help to inspire others. Cheers!
i have no immediate plans to hang a door, but this was an absolute joy to watch
Absolutely the best home reno host. You talk like an actual human being, you have a sense of humor, an opinion on things, and you actually show the mistakes, which everyone in the real world is going to encounter. It's good to learn how to deal with them.
I know this video is a few years old, but I thought I would comment anyway. I'm finishing my basement myself and I've never hung doors before. I watched this a few times before purchasing said doors (32", 34", and 36"). Watched it again this morning before tackling my project. I used the first method and I have to say it was sooooo much easier than I thought it was going to be. Stopping to measure frequently was key. Thank you so very much for your channel!
You are by far one of the best channels for simple, detailed, and practical steps for tackling home projects. Thanks for taking the time to produce your content! For those whose heads aren't in this stuff every day, your videos have good reminders for things to avoid or easier ways to solve for X!
Discovered your videos a few months ago in 2018.
I cannot say thank you enough for your videos. I'm an insurance adjuster for property and I'm not the most construction savvy.
Your videos have helped me make much more informed decisions and I'm able to hold my own with some contractors so they don't take advantage of anyone.
Wish you would upload more, there's so much value in your content. Thanks again!!!
I've just started a handyman business recently and I find myself constantly coming back to your videos for more tips! Thank you for all your videos. You've helped me get out of a few situations I've gotten myself into 😊
how is that business working out for you?
if you don't mind sharing.
@@666miguel99 Cant speak for his business but there is no doubt that somebody could study this channel and begin to learn skills that could generate a significant income. You couldn't study some of these videos and then go try and do the job at a multi million dollar home however there is plenty of work for less skilled people to do at a lower cost while they really build skills. Repairing rental property's is a great way to start out where nobody really gives a fuck so long as it works and doesn't look completely terrible.
Excellent video. I'm a 69 year old, retired Mechanical Engineer, DIY homeowner, and I learned numerous tips, tricks and good information that I hadn't known before from this video. Thank you kindly. Also liked your room soundproofing video. Subscribed to your channel today.
I would like to thank you. I'm about to hang a door and I have never done this before but I'm confident I can do it know. I am a guy who tends to do things myself so I'm somewhat knowledgeable. I was a maintenance Tech for several years doing this and a little bit of everything. but this is my home and the wife is a tough boss. so thank you again.
stay safe and keep these videos coming.
Cheers Joseph, way to keep making your wife the priority. We have been married 31 years now and that is my secret as well.
I fell in love with you when you explained the reason for putting the shim in the middle of the door frame "because I'm old and this is comfortable." I am forever a fan of your skill, realness, and ability to laugh at yourself. Can't wait to Reno my investment properties with what I learn from you
Buckle up Kisha, we are just getting started. Cheers!
I've had great success hanging interior doors with 16 gauge brads, through the door stop. The same way you installed the door with the screws, only using 16 gauge. Great video.
Hey From Vancouver Island.. Love these videos! Entertaining/funny.. I'm a contractor / Jack of All, and they come in so handy when I have to jump from one "trade" to the other... The tricks and tips are what I need reminding of. I'm hanging a door right this minute for a client, and it's been a while since I did my last, so I just watched this on my phone just before I installed it. I'm sure I just saved my customer an hour's worth of labour with your tips. You help make peoples lives "so much easier" ! Thank you.
I am so excited that I found your channel. I am trying to widen my son's bathroom and bedroom doors to a 36 inches to make room for his wheelchair. I seriously learned a lot from you. Thank you
Jeff you are the absolute best! I've never hung a door but have basic carpentry skills. I have now installed six doors using this method (the first one in the video). The first door took me the better part of a day trying different things until I watched this one and trusted the process. The most important thing I learned from the video that made it all "click" was get the hinge side plumb square and level, then just make the latch side "look pretty".
Cheers from California!
I prefer, the easiest, shims!!!! Granted I worked in that area prolly 30 yrs ago, and it is still the best way to go IMHO.
You are also thanked from me for having a AWESOME YT channel. TY TY TY
Cheers!
I love the stories, laughing, and veteran tips. You clearly enjoy this work and it makes me more enthusiastic about taking on these sorts of projects.
Just discovered your videos while staying at home sheltering place because of Covid-19. Best time to get all of my home projects done!! Thank you for all these wonderful educational tips and tricks!!
Hey Jeff, just wanted to say thanks to you and a few other woodworking/DIY TH-camrs for inspiring me to make a start on my own stuff. So last week I ordered some wood glue, some spreaders and a band clamp to help fix some chairs we bought that have come apart at the back joints. They were never glued originally so didn't last long, but they're nice chairs. Chair #2 is currently sitting all clamped up waiting for the glue to dry!
I'm so glad I found this channel. I own a house that was built in 1980 and the only things that have been updated are the kitchen countertops (they tiled it 🙄) and laminate floors (they left no gap around the walls causing it to bow in multiple places 🙄) I feel like I'll be able to redo the entire house with what I've learned from you. 👍👊
You can do It, I can help!
On the bright side at least you're not living in one of those flipped homes where it's done super cheap and against code.
My 1st home was 1994, second 1998, third 2009 and now 1978....ugh the shortcuts.
As a retired safety trainer and aircraft technician I'm very impressed by the instructor. Well done. Thanks
I worked with an old chippy who would take one screw out of each hinge and replace it with a long screw to secure to the stud. Good tip
That works great!
industry standerd, most doors today come with three screws in a bag stapled to the jamb
My step dad said that was an easier way to do it to. I tried to install a door....unfortunately it was before i saw this video. 😞
@Joe T I order hinge screws from Amazon. They have every color in 2 1/4 or 3" they match the small hinge screws perfectly. I put a long screw in each hinge and 1 behind the strike plate.
rick van
Did you mean industry Stan Turd?
I bought a spec. house from the original owners and they had a laundry room added out into the garage. The builders put on the new EXTERIOR door with the brad nail method. After a few years the door, frame and all, was rocking in the wall. I went back and did it right! Great video.
Love that you admit your errors and trials that the DIY guy goes through too. The content is great and "real world" , not made for TV...
I prefer the idea of being in touch with our vewiers anyway. cheers!
Where was you tube when i bought my 1921 house where absolutely nothing was plumb, square or level!Thanks for these realistic videos. Now get to enjoying my weekend!! Ha
Thanks. I’m installing my first door and I have all day thanks to Covid. I’m going to do the shim and screw method!
Three quarters done install only to discover that in a 36 inch span my floor rises by 1 inch... thank you for saving me from terrible embarassment by showing to install the drywall on the new build first, I never would have thought to do that!! I also like the way things don't go exactly smoothly for you all the time, just like they never do for me... thank you.
This is a great video; wouldn’t expect anything less from Jeff. I’d recommend the first method for beginners where you remove the door slab from the frame to install the hinge side of the frame first with screws before replacing the the slab and completing the job; first time plumb and level despite an uneven floor and framing that isn’t level. I’d add an explanation and tutorial on trimming one side of the frame to ensure both sides of the frame sit flush despite an uneven floor.
Best video ever thanks Jeff. My wife and I are back yard carpenters and your video really helped us a lot. thanks again.
this is great. I teach a high school skilled trades class and would love to be able to use this for my students to use as a reference. I teach the first method of installing but they forget most of it by the time they hang the doors in their project
Ha I remember trade classes in highschool. Best part of the day for me, but holy moly there were special dudes and dudettes in my class. Though I grew up in a family of tradesmen so maybe I had an unfair advantage
Great video
I'm a mechanic I need to replace a garage door .I've temporary made a door , works for now . Now I can buy a prehung door , I will use the shim method thanks 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I'm about to become a first time home buyer. Really enjoying your videos and can't wait to jump into some projects!😁
Watching your video helped me to install an interior door very fast. It is now up, square, and opens and closes very nicely. Thanks
I wish you could release an episode a day! This is so much better than This Old House :)
He's taken the spot of this old House for me.
Perhaps one day down the road we could add another episode per week. It is a lot more work than people realize. Cheers!
TOH leaves allot out to make video quick.
You are officially the best DIY TH-camr there is. The way you present is perfect. Question: Do you have a video of how to hang a "not pre hungdoor" I cant find one anywhere on youtube. Please if you do not please do one. It would be so helpful to so many. especially the way you would make it seem so easy and clear to follow.
This is the most detailed explanation of how to install a door I've seen, thank you!
You should look further.
I enjoy watching all these videos. You are relatable & forgiving.....Great attitude!!! Thanks for the learning/teaching experience...
Thanks for this, Jeff. I've been curious about the "easy" system, and appreciated the comparison of techniques.
I tried the easy way before watching the video and I agree...it's more of a pain than it's worth.
I saw your small tricks. And now I understand why one of my door got small issue and how to fix it. Thank you!
It all hinges on your own preferences, I think I got a handle on on this now and I have an opening in my weekend schedule to get it done without getting in a jam and have enough time for ajar to two.
Oh make me gag with the jokes. LOL
Saw a door open to be punny? Haha!
Don't leave us hanging, were you able to swing it or not? Sounded like an open and shut case to me...
I criticized some of his videos in the past but now I just shut my mouth and soaking in all good stuffs.😊
Man, I totally appreciate your videos. I don't know if I've ever seen someone so...informatively annoyed(?)...it's amazing. I live in a "fixer-upper" so I totally get having to fix other people's mistakes. Please don't change!
Love this channel... detailed yet simple.. Appreciate you guys doing it!
Thanks Kris, glad to help!
I could never get bored watching all your DIY videos. I've learned a lot and I saved money. Awesome!
It's great to see all three methods on the same video.
Thought it might be helpful for folks to have options. Cheers!
I watch your videos all the time and find them quite inspirational for DIY. We’ve even attempted a couple projects on our own from watching your videos.
Would love to hear how it went and see pictures. We might share on social media to help inspire.
Home RenoVision DIY we hired a contractor to do our drywalling but we realized he wasn’t doing a great job because of your videos. Your job looks flawless and his didn’t, so we couldn’t live with the imperfections and fixed it on our own lol. I don’t think he noticed but we’re happier. We are going to lay our own laminate and your videos are so informative I think we can do it. I love watching your videos even for projects we don’t plan to attempt. You’re pretty addicting to watch lol. I hope you put some videos up on how to do wall casing, moulding or batten whatever it’s called. 🤞🤞
Greatly appreciate the video - have a pre-hung door in my future and the future looks bright!!!
My wife saw me watching your video, and she said your actually quit intresting. Lol thanks for the information!
For the second option, especially for DIY, it has the additional advantage of not having screw or brad nails holes that you have to patch and let dry (and you should use painters putty or hard spackle and not caulk if you care about having a great finish as of course it will not give you a smooth surface when it dries and shrinks.).
I like that you didn't edit out the little issues you encountered and you showed how you troubleshooter as needed.
Gary! I’m happy to announce you have moved up 2 spots on my list of “favorite Canadians.” You are now ahead of Ryan Gosling and are trailing Mike Myers. You left Avril Lavigne in the dust!
What about red green?
LOL, I love Avril! I am honored to be on the list at all. Cheers!
Check out ave. He’s probably my fav Canadian
I completely get your comment "it's a great learning opportunity", and as a DIY'R, taking my time to get it right. NONE of the door jambs in the house are square, plumb, or fully vertical. Even the folding closet doors have had to have sawing, planing because the frames are screwed up as all the door jambs. Nuff complaining...thank you for great video as I convert a bedroom doorway from bifold to split-jamb! E-HA!
Yes like the first installed of door it's best way to do it
I been working in tile and marble 15 years and some time I put doors on and to be honest I been using your last technic but I use shingles to b sure it will be stady but I'm glad I'm not the only one
Cudos I like your way to teach
Method #1 worked great for me. BTW, you can wait 3-4 hours or more in a US emergency room for non life-threatening cuts, too. And pay enough that you could have bought the doors and hired a master carpenter to install them all for you!
Jeff... Thank you so much for this video!! I put in one new door today and will be putting another in tonight/tomorrow. Also, thanks for the tip when removing a toilet... To slide a heavy trash bag over the bottom... Really keeps the mess down. Another helpful tip when removing a toilet... Use a shop vac to suck all the water out before removing. 👍👍
When installing a door with the metal brackets, you reset door to allow for the thickness of the drywall and you don't have to install dry wall strips before installing door.
Jeff might want to read the manufacturer's instructions. You also strike a plumb line 1/2 an inch from the rough opening on the hinge side so you can line up the creases on the face of the clips and ensure the hinge side is plumb. And checking for an even gap should be done on the opposite side, where you can actually see the gap. I think Jeff decided he didn't like this system before he tried it.
Really appreciate the way you show the issues as you run into them, as well as how you resolve them.
I love to dive into new territory. It is a great way for us all to learn together. Cheers!
When installing with the clips on an unlocked wall, you need to inset the clips the thickness of the drywall.
man you guys are on the ball....wife and I were just talking about wanting to replace doors in the house with nicer ones.
Sometimes the best plan is to change just the door and leave the jamb and trims alone. Cheers!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY tell that to my gf please.
Ha Ha, just south of you, we pay an arm and a leg and then also get to wait 5 hours in emergency; and to top it off we have to fight to get our insurance to cover it! Great video! How often can you get the door jamb flush with the finished wall?
I was about to comment the same. Also, your insurance always wants to send you more paperwork to fill out to see if they can make someone else pay for it. "was this the result of a car accident, on someone's property, or as a result of a crime?" No, idiots, it was an infection. I got it when I missed a staple after removing some old carpet.
...and expect a separate bill from every department on and off the hospital grounds. Many have been known to be completely made-up. They milk insurance and insurance milks the rest of us.
Wish this video was available 3 years ago and that I was able to watch it PRIOR to installing my front entree door on my trailer. I made one mistake..., I only shimmed from one side instead of both. Now my door is twisted after three years. Good advise and tutelage! Most appreciated. However, the first method seems to be the best and IF the final two methods were used in my home...., I wouldn't allow the guy to mow my grass. LOL
I'm old school & like the shims & screws.... It's also how was taught, so I'm pretty good & fast.
Oh, could def tell you didn't like the clips, & when I saw all those screws, I don't blame you😉
Cheers, A👍🏻
From the moment I opened the bag and saw the handful of philips screws. I just about said to Max "screw this application"!
I prefer the clips in finish work only because it saves more time on the part of the work I hate doing on doors... filling holes and sanding. New construction though it messes with drywall guys too hard to be worth using.
I feel bad for all you guys still shimming and struggling. There’s something to be said about “old school” methods being tried and true, but you really gave ZERO effort on the clips and it’s unfortunate you were intimidated by a small bag of screws. It does make me angry that this video has turned so many off to using the clips because of your failure to read the worlds shortest instruction manual for a building product ever. I had come to expect more from your videos and have enjoyed most of what you produce.
As a full time home remodeler I always find it frustrating and sad that SO MANY in the field are so stubborn with new innovation. Granted, many products come along that are a waste of time, but I am always on the lookout for new innovation and will try out new products and tools constantly. Those irritating clips are the greatest innovation in door installation in the past 50 years. Period. I have converted so many stubborn builders to using the clips by simply using them on site. They see me using them and at first they are always shaking their heads and openly express their disapproval of the product. Then, when I am on my 10th door and they are still on their second, they start asking questions, because in their minds, either I’m a wizard at installing doors or there is something to using those clips.
Why in gods name would you try installing a door without the drywall installed, especially for a demonstration of a product that assumes the drywall will be in place? (as it should be!). In every construction site I’ve ever been on, whether a renovation or new construction, I’ve never seen doors installed before drywall. Doors go up when trim goes up. If I walk in to a site and the doors are up before drywall I’m walking right out of there. It’s honestly a shame this video continues to put so many off of using a product that would benefit them so, so much because you decided it was worthless as soon as you opened the bag.
Rebuilding, still, from the flood from Florence. Put one of my doors up with the "plumb and shoot" method, still doing fine, plumb and no problems. Some friends did the long method and now the door they hung (a week later) is not square (was when they hung it) and rubbing at top right hand corner (wasn't when they hung it). Gonna plumb it shoot a few nails in it, should do the trick. Thank you so much for doing this video and sharing your knowledge!
Cheers , that is awesome news. well done! It is time to get handy again!
Always learning from you. Keep up the great work and videos.
"watch out for spinning shims, it's actually pretty dangerous" (spoken with a chuckle) hahah :). Seriously though, this video was so perfect for my project!
4:20
"Why am I talking about it?! Let's just show it"
Why don't more youtube tutorial people think like that?!?!
Also, hello fellow Canadian.
this comment spoke to me at a deep level.
Did you just read my mind thanks for the video! You've made me so much more confident in my house renovation!
The one good thing about the bracket method is that there are no screw or nail holes to calk or putty. I think I would also add shims behind the hinges and replace one hinge screw each with a long screw into framing.
Nice job Jeff I gotta go hang one in a bit ... thanks for your expertise and tips. I watch your videos all the time, keep ém coming. I am a 40 year D.I.Y.er and always looking for new ways to do things. I love all three ways you demonstrated to hang pre hung doors. Thank you sir.
It's still a 3-6 hour wait at our hospitals in the US... AND we have to pay for it!
The best door hanging instruction I had.
Glad to help. Cheers!
8:07 at least its free though. in U.S. you get your stitches quick, then you wait like 3-4 hours to be released,
then you get a bill for a couple grand.
I was about to say, in some densely populated cities you can still wait a long time at the ER too. Also if you have a heart attack and the ambulance takes you to the nearest hospital you better pray the hospital is on your insurance or else you're getting a $50k bill.
i live in a smallish town and getting my scalp stapled (same area of ER as stitches at the hospital i went to) was almost 6 hours n i was on the "fast track" bc i came in with a head injury. not quick or cheap ):
Medical IS NOT FREE
Where do u think the Dr 's get paid from money tree
TAXES TAXES SOOOOO your still paying, PLUS. You get to wait LONGER to get appts
@@rudypadilla9626 Right. Not free. Like Police, Fire, and Public Education.
Nothing is free!...some one paid...It's kinda silly that this "free" is supposed to come from mid air.
Great info. In the middle of doing this. Glad to know I was going to use twice as many 3in screws and water time.
When he first set the frame to the floor, he never mentioned you need the height of the finished flooring and set it that high off the floor
@DR PHIL do you mean to loose install the door than when flooring is going in you can cut jambs to hight?
This video couldn't have popped at a better time, as some or most of the my door frames got a bit wonky since the house settled (thanks mother nature). Not to mention that the previous owner was also an EXPERT DIYer, who installed different trims/ casings/ baseboards and moldings everywhere (lmfao). Thanks Jeff, greatly appreciate your channel and all the helpful expert tips, tricks, tutorials. I'm in Durham region, approx 4hrs from Ottawa, if you're ever in the area please shoot me a quick message, would love to pick your brain over a pot of coffee.
Cheers!
I see what ya did there with the plug that was holding the door shut in the frame... removed it off camera after it was first preventing the door from going in the hole. Love your videos! They're the best! @darius patel I totally agree with you on his videos and things I'm doing around the house.
Cheers Mikie!
Lol Yeah I wonder if he redid it and put the studs back.😂😂 love the video!!
I was laughing so hard, I caught cramps. I saw exactly what you saw, lmao! Love the vids though!
Good explanation, don’t forget to lifting door frame up, because you need space for floor and gap between floor and door half inch. Otherwise you will need undercut door.
Solid like for you video!
I see u getting ur own show on hgtv soooooon. 👌🏾
Who'd ever think us Americans could learn something from those Canadians!! Ha ha! Great job and I picked up a few new tips.
thanks again Jeff. Great work as usual
One of the best DIY videos that I've seen on any topic matter. He is clear and to the point. As a DIY person, I can easily replicate his technique.
Use multitool to cut shims, fast, clean cutting and Safer!
“It’s about getting it done and enjoying the rest of your weekend” HAHA love this guy
I was looking for this comment xD
Do a video how to install an exterior door
Isn't that the same only outside.
@@superiorbeing95 similar, but with details on the sill plate, load bearing headers and weather proofing.
Superior Being yes, just with insulation and potentially more screws for safety (prevent break-ins)
Close but there are a number of weather related things to go over.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY so does that mean you've got one coming!?
Great job man! You are the first person I've subscribed to. I'm renovating my house so I think you'll be helping me out a lot.
Welcome aboard!
Oh you're going to wait several hours at the ER in the US as well --- except here you're going to walk out with a $5k hospital bill.
Exactly. Sigh...
You're not missing anything!
Get a job. Buy insurance.
@Stephen Paid $4,000 for 8 stitches after smashing my finger, after sitting waiting for 3 1/2 hours to get in to the ER Doc. I didn't call an ambulance, I drove myself there, after being told at the walk-in they couldn't do it. So I had that bill on top of the $4,000 ER visit. So yes Stephen people do pay that, and yes i have insurance, and I paid $1,200 after the insurance paid their portion.
@Stephen What hospital do you go to?
Thanks ! Very helpful!
So plumb is vertical and level is horizontal? Just getting the lingo correct ...
