Abstract
The invention provides door frame assembly, suitable for hanging a door panel in a number of different positions. The invention is characterised such that a side wall of the frame is routered on front and rear faces, either face adapted to receive one plate of a door hinge. In addition one edge of the door panel is routered across the entire length of the edge to receive a second plate of said hinge, wherein the outer edge of the second plate comprises a bull nosed edge. The advantage of the door frame assembly according to the invention is the routering both sides of the panel allows it to be reversed depending on which way one wishes to hang the door. As the door panel edge is routered across the entire edge allows the hinge to hang the door in the frame in either direction.
