No Shims, No Holes, No Mess
The Ultimate Bracket is fabricated using 22-gauge galvanized steel, designed to be fastened to the door jamb for an easy and efficient installation. Only 3 tools are needed: a level, a tape measure, and a drill.
Professional Installation
Our bracket is made to secure the jamb to both sides of the wall to ensure a strong, quality, and professional installation, whether you are dealing with solid or hollow core doors. Twisted framing is no longer an issue.
Flexible
We’ve designed The Ultimate Bracket for standard 2”x4” walls, along with drywall for a width of 4.5”, but we have also made sure that the bracket can be modified for 2”x3” and 2”x6” walls. It’s just one more reason to add it to your toolkit.

Step-by-Step Interior Door Installation with The Ultimate Door and Window Bracket
To learn how to properly install a door, watch the videos or follow the written steps below:
Steps To A Professional Door Installation In 4 Minutes
Step 1: Draw Your Line
On the visible hinge side of the opening, using a level, draw a vertical plumb line on the drywall 3/4" from the rough opening from top to bottom.
Step 2: Attach Brackets To Your Jamb
On the hinge side, install three brackets to the jamb, one at each hinge using three mounting holes and 1/2" screws. Use the two vertical holes on each side to align and center the bracket to the jamb.
Next, install the other three brackets on the opposite side. Install the top bracket four inches down and the bottom bracket four inches up. Install the center bracket two inches above the door latch.
Step 3: Place Your Door
Place spacers on the floor as needed to represent the thickness of a finished floor. (The bottom of the door should be approximately 1/2 inch from your finished floor.) Working with the face of the door, bend all six tabs and place the door in the opening. Open the door and bend all six tabs on the other side.
Step 4: Secure To The Wall
Starting at the top hinge, fasten the bracket using the adjustable slot with a two-inch screw, lining up the notches on the 3/4-inch plumb/level line on the wall.
Working your way down, install the other two brackets on the plumb/level line. Drive the screws flush with the drywall. Your door is now level.
Continuing on the latch side, making sure to leave an equal space between the top and side of the door and jamb, fasten the three remaining brackets with two-inch screws.
Step 5: Secure To The Other Side Of The Wall
Continue on the other side of the door. Make sure the bottom of the jamb is square with the wall and fasten this side with two-inch screws.
Measure the top of the opening and verify that the same measurement is at the bottom. Fasten the three remaining brackets.
Tip: Remove the center screw in the top hinge and replace it with a longer screw to secure it to the wall framing.
You are now ready to install the trim!
