hanging doors where carpeting is installed
Hello,
Installing a set of trackless bifolds in an opening that currently has carpeting. I could pull back the carpeting easily enough but I'd rather not if possible. Looking ahead I can imagine shimming the doors into the jamb could be a problem w/a carpet surface. I'm thinking of laying down some 1/8 masonite to give the shims something a little firmer to wedge against. Could perhaps then wedge the top flush up against the head jamb rather than shooting for an 1/8 in gap... Anyone who's dealt w/this before care to share some technique? The books I've got don't get into little details like this. thanks in advance ml |
