How to install the interior door?

[headmaster200]

Hello,

I've just finished building my internal wall and I'm going to hang my 9 x 21 door.
Now the door frame is about 9.3 cm deep while the wall was made with 9.5 cm studs + 2 drywall sheets, so it is 12.1 cm wide.

How should I install the door frame? Should I move the frame so that it aligns with the outermost drywall, but then the door frame won't be centered on the stud, although that might not matter?

The door is: http://www.kompanjonen.se/produkter/innerdorr-dooria---8x21-30db-hh-ljusgra and also weighs 42 kg.

The side with hinges you align with the plaster. Next time, buy a 120mm frame instead.

Now TS would have a special fire-rated door. They may not be available in all frame widths.

But it's always the hinges that should be flush with the wall. Otherwise, you can't open the door fully.

Thank you for the answers.

Sorry, but I don't know what "i liv med väggen" means (can't find an explanation online either), does it mean perpendicular to the wall? But then doesn't it also really mean that you place the frame perpendicular to the wall?

In this case, is in life with gips = smooth with gips

Thanks for the answers.

Sorry but I don't know what "in line with the wall" means (can't find an explanation online either), is it perpendicular to the wall? But wouldn't that also mean the door frame is set perpendicular to the wall?

No, it means that the door frame should be at the same level as the wall. If you place a long spirit level across the doorway, the frame should just touch the spirit level.
