ABSTRACT:
A door frame construction in which the jambs, threshold, lintel, and trim are of molded construction. The door frame may be molded in one piece and the jambs are provided with clips for attaching the jambs to studs framing the door opening. The clips are adjustably mounted on the jambs so that the door frame may be positioned properly despite misalignment of the studs to which the frame is attached. The jambs also carry clips for attaching the trim to the door frame, and these clips and the clips for mounting the frame on the studs may be formed integrally from a single strip of metal. The side and head trim are preferably formed separately and joined at the job site by means of a special corner construction which allows them to be joined without nails, screws or other external fasteners.
