I am replacing my front door with a new Rationel wooden door and frame. The frame has fited into the existing opening, but it is a tight fit; this at least should help secure the frame. The problem however is that the door will not open and close freely - it seems that the frame of the door is slightly off even though everything is showing to be level. The frame is made of wood on three sides, but the base is an allunimum strip. Any advice would be much appreciated.
 
looses the area around the frame. close the door . lock it. anchor the frameset to the surrounding walls. adjust for levels. tightly secure. open and close door. listen and feel for friction. if none, permanently secure frameset (after door is reclosed). fill around door set with expandible foam etc etc.

or get someone to fit it
