Default Shaving off door bottom

Wife has fitted a new carpet in a room and now door won't shut as pile

low cost one.

thx



A plane isn't the right tool to trim the bottom of a door, it's fine on
the edges. You need a circular saw and a sawboard

Even a cheap circular saw will work fine with a sawboard.
