The frames were set correctly, then terrazzo floors were installed instead of vinyl tile.

On this door, I’m going to measure up 2-1/8″, which is not unheard of in houses where the flooring and framing aren’t planned well.

how to cut a prehung interior door to a custom height


Buy a stock door instead and make it fit..

Now run your saw up the plywood and you wil wind up cutting off some of the 1/4" plywood. In most cases, you will need to remove about half of an inch of the stop on each side of the door frame to accommodate the height of the threshold.Transfer the measurement to the door stops on each side of the frame. ......especially if ya have a truck load of doors sitting there waiting to be cut down.

fills the whole jamb to spot any bows too.
