-
If necessary, remove the old trim from the door.
-
With a hammer or pry bar, gently but firmly pry the old trim off the wall.
-
Start from the corner, and work along the length of the trim.
-
-
-
Measure the door frame.
-
Measure along the inside of the door frame, from floor to corner.
-
Make sure to record the measurement for future reference.
-
Measure each section of the door (the top, and both sides) in the same way.
-
-
-
Prepare to cut the new trim to fit the door.
-
Using the measurement from the previous step, mark the appropriate length on the trim to be installed.
-
This will mark where the trim lines up against the inside corner of the door.
-
-
-
-
Align the chop saw to make a 45 degree cut.
-
Consult the user's manual as needed to set up the saw correctly.
-
Align the trim on the saw so the mark you made is along the guide of the saw.
-
Again, the user's manual will provide specifics of how this is accomplished.
-
-
-
Align the new trim along the edge of the door. It should be lined up with the door frame.
-
The trim is aligned correctly when the frame is covered completely by the trim.
-
Use a level to ensure it is vertical.
-
-
-
Using trim nails, nail the trim to the wall, starting from the top.
-
Align each nail so it is perpendicular to the surface, and hammer it in with smooth, forceful strikes.
-
Nail along the inner edge as well as the outer edge.
-
The nails should be placed 18 to 24 inches apart along each respective edge.
-
-
-
A small dab of joint compound or spackling will hide the nail holes.
-
Place a small amount of spackling (about the size of a BB) on the tip of a finger.
-
Press the spackling into the nail hole.
-
Wipe across the top of the filled hole with a putty knife or any flat blade to remove excess spackling.
-
Well done! Enjoy your door's new look.

If replacing a single section of old trim bring section of old trim to the store to match pattern and when doing stained wood have the store clerk try to match the stain.
