Step 18 Install Doors & Hardware
4. Before you fasten the hinges to the door
trim, temporarily prop the doors in the
opening. Leave a space at the top of the
doors and between the doors and the
side trim to allow room for the doors to
expand when they absorb moisture.
If your door opening is out of square,
the space around the doors will not be
even. You can remove and reposition
the side trim to make allowances for
this. The side trim does
not have to be
flush with the frame of the door opening.
You can move the trim in or out to make
the door spacing equal.
