Installation Steps
1. Assemble and place the 3 jambs into the rough opening, tacking each jamb with nail to hold in place.
2. Level and shim the wood jambs, on all 3 sides.
3. Hang the door and perform final tweaks to the jambs. Use the door to check the trueness of the jambs. Be sure to maintain the correct jamb to door spacing on all three sides. Fasten the jambs thoroughly with multiple nails, at proper increments. Cut the protruding lengths of shims off (flush with the jamb).
4. Install doorstop.
5. Measure then cut casing for 3 sides on both sides of the doorway.
6. Nail and glue casing on both doorways.
WHO SHOULD USE U-CHANNEL?
We often find this works best for large volume builders where we are finishing multiple homes or units per day, however, this does also service the contractor and the homeowner well. For our contractors we have heard the feedback on how much easier it is to install, when they can skip all the measuring and fidgeting. This system can essentially be installed all from standing position which the same cannot be said for the traditional route of installing a door.
The feedback from the average homeowner is that yes, it is easier for them to install, especially if you’re not well versed with carpentry. A major plus for the general homeowner is that they can install this U-Channels with minimal tools; eliminating the use of a mitre saw and using nothing more than a hammer, nails, glue, and a level.
