Can I hang a new solid wood door in the existing hollow door jamb?
I have to replace a broken hollow door and I saw a 6 panel door at HD for $60. not as smooth a finish as the $170 door but good enough to be painted. I'm considering replaceing all the bedroom doors with the solid wood doors.
HOW WOULD I ALIGN THE HINGES on the new door and the old Jamb????
ps. I had tried to fix the old hollow door by filling the loose hinge holes and redrilling and remounting the hinges. I screwed it up and the door doesnt close right. It binds. I realize I should have repaired one hole in the hinge at a time and used the others to maintan alignment. This door also is cracked so I want to replace it.
Thanks for any info.
