In this video we discuss using a Hole Dozer for a lock install. The existing Prehung doors hole sat extremely low on the door, the hole was patched using compound then sanded and painted over.

Be sure to check you States Building? Residential Code on Doorknob Heights, yes there is a such a thing.


"The International Building Code has established doorknob height between 34 and 48 inches above a finished floor. Installers typically drill the hole centered 36 inches above the floor -- if not specifically instructed to do so differently. Exceptions to the rule include doors that provide egress into swimming pools or other water features. In this instance, the doorknob is installed 48 to 54 inches above the floor, specifically to raise the knob out of the reach of small children."
