If your interior doors are looking a bit long in the tooth and you want to give them a bit of an update, you'll love learning the fundamentals in this friendly DIY workshop.
In this practical class, you will learn how to hang a door. You will mark out for hinges, and create the mortises in the door and frame with a chisel and a router. Create the mortise for the latch, fit the door handle and hinges and finally hang the door.
The Great British Woodshop practical series classes are a good follow-on from their Skills Classes where you can take the knowledge you have learned and put it to practical use in a more targeted or focused way.
During the class, you'll learn:
  • Marking out for the hinges in both the frame and the door
  • Creating the mortises in the door and frame with a chisel
  • Create the mortise for the latch
  • Fit the door handle
  • Fit the hinges
  • Hang the door to the frame
Your tutor will pair up the students into groups of two so you have a buddy to help you lift and manoeuvre the door, and youwill also discuss techniques for performing these tasks on your own.
