prehung
Door already framed
Prehung describes a door sold already mounted in its frame, with hinges attached and ready to install as a complete unit.
A prehung door simplifies installation—you set the whole assembly into the rough opening rather than fitting a door slab to an existing frame: We ordered prehung interior doors for the renovation.
