Can someone tell me the best way to do it?

If you do choose to do it yourself, you need to bring it up more than just
clearing for a bedroom door. For proper heating and/or AC airflow, a gap is
absolutely necessary.

Don't recall if it is 1/4" or 1/2". Someone will see this and post I'm
sure.

Depends on the system. Some houses are built with
a cold air return in nearly every room and
certainly in the bedrooms. So the door can be
very tight.

I want the doors in my house to just rub the top
of the carpet (door bottoms are smooth) and I
don't have cold air returns in the bedrooms.
Bedroom doors are normally open in my house.
Works just fine for me.
