Hi,

I think I have seen plastic wedges you can buy to fit behind door
frames to make them plumb. What are they called so that I might buy
some?

Dave,

Bloody expensive items when all you need is a bit of wood and saw to
make your own (and you as a power-tool freak can even use a circular
saw to make 'em) - and absolutely useless when the opening is far
bigger than frame!

You miss the point matey. The SF ones are slotted so they drop over the
fixing and stay in place whatever you are doing - and you can stack them, so
if you had a 23mm gap you could use 3x6 & 1x5 and get things exactly right.

Wow!

A wooden wedge would give you total control, as a real craftsman, over
any adjustments, Imperial (preferably) or metric

Who realistically wants their house to be held together by bits of
metrically specced kit?
