Place a door can be an easy task but if we add all the pieces, the thing is a bit more complicated. klkinhome help you to accomplish this task. From making a hole to mount a hinge or replace the door itself, these are some of the indications you'll find this free course related to the doors.

Types of locks
Prior to the placement of hinges, see what types are in the market:
Direction of opening: when we pick a lock regardless of whether the door opens to the right (right hand) or left (left foot). Depending on where you open the door to install a lock latch turned to one side or another.
Lock in sight: there are cases where it is possible to install a recessed lock
because the door is not thick enough to house (doors thinner than 40 mm). Then place a lock latch apparent turn around or fixed.
Cylinder lock: In the case of exterior doors will place
a cylinder lock as they are safer. This type of cylinder locks have a "bowler" placed in fixed housing, but can be replaced without replacing the entire lock.
Recessed lock: This type of lock is designed to be
installed on interior doors. With the handle or pommel we activate the latch turned to the door. Optionally you can set up a fixed latch for added security, which opened and closed with a key.
The lock-wall (I)
Let's see how we put a lock recessed.
How high place?: Before making any holes take place far from where the lock.
Normally the handle or knob is 1.05 m above ground. Will place the lock against one side of the door and the corresponding height. With a pencil mark the top and bottom margin and with a square pass beyond these measures to the door edge.
The shaft clamp: with the help of a gage mark the center of the edge of the door.
Will place the lock on the route, which will focus on height and mark its outline. We already have as we deal with the lock.
The drilling: with the drill and a spade bit with a diameter similar to the width of the lock will make several holes along the space they occupy. The depth of the holes that you previously made, delimit the depth of the drill guide.
Finishing: Once the hole remove residue with a completely flat chisel recessed leaving the lock without difficulty. As you go "cleaning" we'll see how much we cut to keep us dancing the lock.
The head: when we have placed the lock, mark the outline of the head to lower it later with a chisel and it is fully embedded in the door edge.
