Checking the condition of the existing
exterior door frame. The difference between an interior and exterior
door frame is that both frames have a head (the top) but the
exterior frame also has a sill (the bottom) and the exterior door is
fitted between them both. Check the condition of the existing frame.
If there are signs of rotting or if the sill is worn, the new door
could be spoilt without paying attention to its frame. If you are
replacing the door with a natural wood finish, does the frame suit
the door you are going to fit? If the old paint has to be removed
and the condition of the frame is not very good, it could be time to
replace the framework.
Replacing the old exterior door frame.
If you do replace the frame, custom-made pre-treated hardwood frames
are being made at at our studio. Try to choose the door at the same
time or choose a frame to match the door you intend to use. A good
custom-made frame and properly installed will allow the door to fit
perfectly and there should be no need for cutting sections off the
door. Measure the existing brickwork opening dimensions. Decide
whether a custom frame can be made in the size you require.
Otherwise determine the amount of wood needed to construct the frame
yourself. It is extremely important to set the frame squarely, and
even when buying a ready-made frame a small clearance is given to
allow the frame to be set squarely in its position.
When you order a custom door or frame,
it will be a pre-hung frame. Pre-hung doors are made with solid wood
frames. In most cases, you will need to remove the existing door
frame from the rough opening before you install a pre-hung door. The
door frame must be as square as possible, so that the door seals
tightly to the jamb and swings properly. It is a good idea to use
expanding foam caulking to seal the new door frame to the rough
opening and threshold to prevent air from getting around the door
seals and into the house. You should do this before adding the
interior trim. Apply expanding foam carefully, especially with a
wood frame, to avoid having the foam force the frame out of square.
