Many of us make repairs on our own, since hiring workers are quite expensive and not everyone does the work efficiently. So, if during the repair process the question arose about replacing the interior door, you can safely get down to business, our article will help you with this.
First you should dismantle the old door. It is worth doing it as accurately as possible, since your old door can be sold on any free ads website. When the doorway is released from the box of the old door, you need to make sure that there are no extensions around the perimeter, which are used to reduce the doorway (for example, the door box is much width of the opening itself). If any, they also need to be removed.
The second stage is the measurement of the dimensions of the doorway. It is necessary to measure the width, the height of the doorway and the thickness of the wall itself, since the installation of a doorprise may be needed.
Then we go to the store and choose the right door suitable for the price, texture, color and size. If the depth of the box is less than the wall thickness, you need to buy a door additional. When placing an order, ask for a specialist to collect the box (this service is paid, but thanks to it there will be no cracks in the joints). Also in the store buy a couple of cylinders of the mounting foam.
The next step will be the installation of the door frame. The collected box must be placed in the doorway, and from the inside it is horizontally. Then the seams between the box and the wall are disconnected by mounting foam and left for a day. The foam bursts off the box, and if you do not previously praise from the inside, then in the future the door leaf may not enter the box.
After a day, remove the spacers and cut the grooves under the door loops and the lock with a chisel. Then the loops are screwed and the door leaf is hung on them. If it is necessary to install the preference, then for starters it is cut off the desired width (this can be done with an electric jigsaw with a special wood file, since you will have to cut along), and then installed on the sealant in the door box. At the end, the door lock is installed and the platbands are nailed with “finish” cloves.
That’s all, with simple actions, you saved about three thousand rubles of the family budget, which usually costs the services of the door installer. Successful repairs!
