To plane a door edge and seal!


WHEN A DOOR STARTS STICKING IN THE DOOR JAMB YOU WILL HAVE TO USE A PLANER. START ON EDGE OF ONE END OF THE DOOR & STOP ABOUT TWO INCHES FROM OTHER END. START OVER FROM OTHER END & DO THE SAME UNTIL THE DOOR FITS. IF YOU DON'T DO THIS, YOU WILL TAKE BIG CHUCKS OF WOOD FROM THE ENDS OF THE DOOR.
REMEMBER TO ALWAYS SEAL OR PAINT THE EDGES OF DOOR BEFORE INSTALLATION....OR THE DOOR CAN WARP! SWELLING CAN TAKE PLACE DUE TO HUMIDITY IN THE AIR. SEALING TAKES AWAY THAT POSSIBILITY!

LET ME KNOW HOW THIS WORKS OUT. ROG
