This method of fixing the door casings is less common, but still noteworthy.This unpopularity is due to the fact that the crop at the right angle, you can not all kinds of trims and moldings only with a clear rectangular cross-section or slightly rounded edges.In other cases, it is best to resort to sawing at 45 °.The essence of the paper is that adjacent straps connected to each other at an angle of 90 °, with the upper casing over the door must be placed between the side.This condition allows you to make pruning easier and more accurately fit the joints.

Despite the seeming simplicity of the work is not so simple.Make a neat cut, as in the previous case, without precise measurements and special tools will not work.For a perfect docking end of the casings must have a flat rectangular configuration, so the calculation of height and length of the lateral parts of the upper casing need to keep up to millimeters.
