and want it hung on the existing framework of old door.

The hinges on the new door are the type where you can just lift the door on or off the hinge on the frame. I have all the hinges.

Here is what I reckon needs to be done is.

Plane a bit off the hinge side of the door to align door.
Refit the hinges to door.
Fit other half of hinges to the frame.
Hang the door and cut out holes for lock and handle tongues.

Can anyone recommend anyone to do the job.

cheers.
