Title: French doors in the bedroom
Post by: jcassity on July 05, 2013, 01:55:20 PM
Well,, these old doors were made by a company i think is still up and running.

doors are stamped on the end saying
"hardwood products corporation"

now the tricky part,, if i cut this wrong,, theres no amount of trim or shims to fix it, it becomes a strutural issue from now on.
