I am just starting framing out a new stud wall which will house a set of double doors. Is it preferred to plasterboard first to the edge of the stud work and then fit the door lining or can l fit the lining first?
The reason l ask is because l wanted to leave the stud wall open to run cables which won't be done for a bit but l would like to hang the doors.
Also, because l want to hang the doors without having to trim them down, and can build the opening to suit, how much additional space should l leave to allow the same gap down the sides and along the top, and also a gap down the middle of the doors? A couple of mm?
Is it possible to hang one door, then build the studs, header and lining for the other side after to get a better fit?
Thanks for any advice.
