So, suppose, the moment has come when youproudly you can tell yourself: the repair of my apartment is almost finished. You have worked on the glory, but remained the last, the final stage. And this, of course, is the installation of doors. 
Types of interior doors.The main thing is to remember the golden rule: the work of the master is afraid, so do not rush to call a specialist. You can do it. It is important just not to deviate from the instructions, to do the work accurately and efficiently, and you will definitely succeed! you should be clearly aware that in such work, every millimeter and attentiveness to every little thing matters. We will proceed from the fact that at the time when the installation of the interior door is made, you already have the walls and floor in a rough version. Everything must be smooth in order for the door installation to be as successful as possible. Work on the walls should be at the level of their readiness for finishing. The material and height of the floors must be determined so that the door frame can be trimmed. If this has not yet been done, then a collision with such a problem as the inability to install interior doors vertically is inevitable, since you simply cannot open them.
How to make the right door choice?
Interior doors can be with glassinserts or integral structure. If the choice of any piece of furniture is reduced to your taste and price, then with the choice of interior doors, things are much more complicated. Not only that the door in its appearance and style should fully fit into the overall interior, but also you need not make a mistake with its quality and functionality! First, check the selected copy for the quality of the coating. The door is not worth seeing if it is a murky shade. This can be clear evidence that the manufacturer tried to hide the mounds on the surface of the door. Therefore, the varnish must be transparent. You should opt for a foreign manufacturer, since Russian very often use not very high-quality materials for the sake of economy. Do not forget to measure the parameters of the door. The maximum difference of 1 mm is permissible. The surface, we recall, should not be a curve, tubercular, or rough. If the design of your interior door provides for the presence of glass, you, of course, need to make sure of the strength of its fastening. I do not think you need noise every time you open the door. Do not forget to study the seams at the joints of the materials. They, as well as the surface, should not have unevennesses. The panel at the door should be made of MDF, and not in any case from chipboard. And remember, the basic rule of buying an interior door: do not need to look cheaper. If the door has a low price, it means that you are trying not only to save, but also the manufacturer on materials and manufacturing quality. Back to contents</a>
Tools required for work
Tools for the installation of interior doors.we're almost ready to start editing. But, as you know, no construction work is possible without the necessary set of tools. So, you need to get started:
- Screwdriver (for screwing screws);
- perforator;
- circular saw;
- chisel;
- level (for measuring the smoothness of the installation);
- drawing accessories (for marking);
- hammer and nails;
- construction foam.
Other small details you can check withrepresentatives of the manufacturer, as some items may be in the kit, or the interior door features imply the presence of other devices in your tool kit. Back to contents</a>
Mounting the interior door with your own hands
To start the installation, firstit is necessary to prepare a doorway. In other words, you need to adjust its dimensions. You need to do this in order that you have the opportunity to adjust the door for a high-quality installation. If the dimensions of the opening are too large for the door, the installation process will cause a lot of problems, or it will not be possible at all. The same applies to the small opening. The formula for calculating its optimal size is as follows: you must add the dimensions of the width of the door leaf, the thickness of the canopy, the calculated location for the mounting foam (approximately 20 mm), and a small margin for free entry of the doorway, which should be no more than 2-3 mm. 
Installation of the interior door. It is important to remember that the opening should not be less than the size calculated by you according to this formula, otherwise you will not be able to put the door in the level. The divergence of the size of the opening with your calculations in the direction of increase is possible by 20-25 mm. Now go directly to the very process of work. Installation is possible in two variations. First: the interior doors are put completely in its usual form, that is, an integral block. The second: in parts, gradually, beginning with the lath and ending with the attachment of the door leaf to it. The choice of mounting method depends on your preferences. But it is necessary to specify the pros and cons of each type of installation. When separate, there is a risk that by installing the door yourself and having no experience in this matter, you will make the gap not quite uniform. Working with a solid door in this regard is easier because of the possibility to take control of the uniformity of the gap, but there are also disadvantages: the full size of the heavy door makes the installation not entirely convenient.

Types of door installation
It does not matter which type of editing you chose, itselfThe work will consist of almost identical steps. The door block or the luggage should be placed in the doorway and locked. To fix, you will need a wedge. They can be made by hand or bought in a store. It is best to take wedges made of solid wood. If your choice fell on a separate installation process, you will need spacers to fix the lath. In the case of the assembled block, you should put the wedge under the bottom of the door, so that the weight of the door leaf does not affect the position of the lath. Once your door is securely in the desired position, you can proceed to fix it with a mounting foam. This mixture will perform all the main work. It is necessary several times to wipe the doorway with a damp cloth to make it damp, actively shake the balloon with mounting foam and fill this mixture with all the free space between the doorway and the box. Once you have accomplished this task, the simplest remains. 
Interior door opening schemes.It is necessary to close the door and insert flat spacers into the gap formed between the box and the canvas. They can be made from regular cardboard. Once you have done this, leave the door in this position until the foam dries. It is undesirable to disturb the door during this period of time. almost over. One very important detail should be clarified: the quality of the work performed will be high only if you put spacers every 210 mm. This will ensure that the polyurethane foam will not have the opportunity to squeeze the canvas in the places of the future installation of the lock and the inset of the door sheds. Therefore, the first step is to place the spacers in these areas. Equally important is the use of the mounting level throughout the entire installation process, before each fixing of any element. This is the only way to ensure the even position of the door leaf in the opening. If it turns out that the thickness of the opening is slightly wider than the door frame, you can correct this defect with the help of "addons". You can buy them together with the door or make them yourself from platbands. Carefulness, consistency, and a responsible approach are a guarantee of an excellent result!
