    These were around 50 years ago. No need for two, one will hold a door just fine. Better to use 90mm timber on edge as it brings the door edge up to a more convenient height for fitting hinges or planing the edge.
    A sash clamp will do the same job.

    My carpenter father-in-law showed me that trick over 40 years ago when fitting out an extension. I still have the wedge and threw out the main piece only a couple of years ago.
