Remove wedges after inserting frame screw?
Hello
I have several interior doors that will eventually go into new partition walls. As an amateur, I plan to use frame screws that I've already purchased, can I remove all wedges then, even those that usually sit between the crossbeam and the top rail? I've never seen a finished installation with frame screws, you see.
Is there any advantage to pre-installing door frames and doors before attaching the sheets, apart from making sure everything is level, of course (so that the door doesn't open by itself, etc.)?
Good evening!

Yes, remove the wedges. You don't need to use any at all. The great thing about karmskruv is that you can always adjust. Assuming the walls are straight. After the first door frame, you've surely understood the finesse. You got this! Take care! Korp-Johan
One tip might be to have a small wedge under the frame on the hinge side, so that you have the opportunity to adjust the other side if the floor has a slight slope (which they tend to have especially in old houses, if someone happens to have one of those..).
