Several years ago I watched a master carpenter hang a replacement door. This was not a pre hung door. He whipped out his tape measure, measured everything for a few minutes and never wrote down a thing. He grabbed the solid core door and put it on the saw horses and proceeded to cut the door down with his skill saw. He whipped out his hole saw, cut the knob hole and the dead bolt hole. Chiseled out the hinge cuts and attached all the hardware. He put it on the hinge pins and it swung shut with a nice click. He said, “That went smooth” and started cleaning up. He was done in no time.

He was a real master.

We recently replaced our front door. My only part in that was to pick it up at the lumber yard. I was smart enough to hire a pro. The guy had a helper and they removed the old door and frame, even the sill. They were very good and the new door is square, solid and the locks work smooth, just like they are supposed to. I was mowing my yard so I did not bother them by watching every step. It is great to hire a pro that really is a PRO, not a wanna-be.
