You should have bought a "split jamb" door. Your thinking is correct, remove
casing on one side only. Leave the door in the jamb, to check your margin(
even distance between door and jamb). this operation requires 2 people.

Bought pre-hung door with frame (obviously) and trim already installed.

The only way I can see to install this door is to remove the trim from
both
sides and, after installing the door and frame, reinstalling the trim.

Is this correct? If so, what reason is there for installing the trim onto
the
frame?

I need to install the shims on all sides of the frame, so I can't see how
to
install the shims with only one side of the trim removed...

Ideas?

Thanks,
