Installing a Prehung Door
A door is a precision instrument. It should consistently snap into its latch, clear its jamb, and swing effortlessly on its hinges. The fine tolerances needed to achieve this kind of performance help explain why hanging a door is considered a true measure of carpentry skill.

While a pump doesn't cure the disease, it goes a long way toward treating the symptoms. I completed this project over a period of a month.
