    First get the hinge side of the frame level and in the position you want it. Screw it into the wall using full threaded screws. If you don’t use full threaded screws, the screws will pull on the frame and make it not-level.

    Then put the door on the frame, and close it almost completely and adjust the side of the frame opposite of the hinges to make it fit the door. A good trick is to close the door until there’s only just a tiny sliver of a gap, then make the gap equal by adjusting the frame.

    Congratz, you just installed a door in about 10 minutes!

    This is how I’ve installed hundreds of doors as a carpenter.
