Im a professional is not that simple. This was not very detailed and left too much out. How was the outside sealed to the flashing to keep it from leaking. How was the jamb secured to the studs. What about the cross sight of the door.

For security: many 'experts" forget one thing: the weakest parts of the door structure are the tiny screws on the strike plate(s) and the door hinges. It's fairly easy an average-sized burglar to kick in a deadbolted door- the metal bolt simply shatters the lightweight wood of the door jamb when kicked in. Also, the door can be kicked in or pried loose from the hinge side. Drive LONG SCREWS (at least 2 1/2") into the strikeplate and hinges to penetrate the door studs and secure the door.

Good intro to this product. Will review this video before I replace door on my home.

[walios1]

Of all the videos that I have seen for pre hung door installations this one is the most detailed. Highly recommended for newbies and first timers. The best one so far.

@walios1 yeah the home depot one is shit.

[chrisbc29]

@walios1 check out the one from "ask the builder" he actually does things like flashes the opening...
