Evening All,
I spent the afternoon at my Mum's trying to fix the internal doors. Whoever installed the door handles didn't line up the striker plates and none of the door latch. Most of the doors were only a few mm out so they weren't too bad but a couple are 10 - 15mm out.
How should I repair the door jamb once i have moved the plate? Will bulders big work or do I need to cut out a section of jamb and repalce it with wood. Pretty much all the doors need to resists is a cat looking for food.
thanks for your assistance,
Mick
