4. Once the door is in situ, you will be shown how to make any necessary adjustments by using a carpenter plane. When this is completed, and you have successfully hung your door, you will then move onto fitting your door furniture. This will once again be demonstrated, and you will practice this process until mastered and are able to do it yourself, on your own doors.

5. Moreover, as part of the previous job, you will also fit an architrave around your door frame to finish the job off and produce a truly professional look
