ABSTRACT:
An adjustable door jamb assembly which can be simply and accurately aligned and installed in a door opening. The jamb assemblies are each made up of a fixed section and an adjustable section. Each fixed section has a plurality of snap-in guide clips supported thereon. The clips each have a plate-like body with a leg at each end and an integral cantilever tongue extending generally parallel to, but converging toward, the plate-like body of the clip so that the tongue is deflected away from the plate-like body. A flange on the adjustable section is received between the cantilever tongue and one of the legs. The tongue of each clip frictionally engages the adjustable section holding it in adjusted position on the door jamb.
