by Fred M
To rebuild door frame . bought this condo and the door had been kicked in.
*Options I considered for this project:
There really wasn't an option here as it has everything to do with security.
*My motivation to do this project:
With a weak frame no matter what kind of locks you use your home wont be secure.

    Buy a product called a StrikeMaster 2. I am a remodeler and have watched demos of 2 martial arts masters try to kick a door in with one of these units for 45 solid minutes. No luck for them, No crook is going to expend that much time and energy.

    my home was built 24 years ago. I am remodling and need to replace bed room doors. Have done one door , but door won't close completly flush with frame, do to house settling. How do I re build frame so door closes flush.
