• Mark Hinge Position:
  • Close the door and mark the hinge placement on the door edge. Typically, hinges are positioned 5 to 10 inches from the top and bottom edges of the door.
  • Mark the corresponding positions on the door frame.
• Outline the Hinge:
  • Hold the butt hinge in place on the door’s edge and trace around it using a pencil or marker.
  • Repeat this process on the door frame.
• Chisel the Mortise:
  • Use a utility knife to score the outline for precision.
  • Using a chisel and hammer, carefully chisel out the traced area to create a recess (mortise) that is the depth of the hinge leaf. The hinge should sit flush with the door surface.
  • Repeat this process on the door frame.
• Drill Pilot Holes:
  • Place the hinge into the mortise and mark the screw holes.
  • Use a drill to create small pilot holes for the screws. This helps prevent the wood from splitting and makes it easier to screw in the hinge.
• Attach the Hinge to the Door:
  • Align the hinge in the mortise and secure it using screws. Tighten the screws with a screwdriver, making sure the hinge sits flush with the door surface.
• Attach the Hinge to the Door Frame:
  • Position the door against the frame so that the hinge knuckles align with the frame’s mortise.
  • Secure the hinge to the frame with screws, ensuring the door hangs correctly and moves smoothly.
• Test the Door:
  • Open and close the door several times to check the movement. Make sure the door swings freely without rubbing or sticking.
  • If needed, adjust the screws to correct any misalignment.
