AFTER SHEETROCK FRAME AND METHOD FOR INSTALLING THE SAME

A doorframe kit includes a head jamb for installation over a top portion of a doorway and a vertical jamb adapted to be joined to the head jamb and extend along a surface of a wall adjacent the doorway. The doorframe kit may include an adjustable spacer having a shaft adjustably engaged with a retaining member. The retaining member may be fixedly mounted to the vertical jamb at an adjustment location spaced below the head jamb. The shaft may be selectively movable relative to the retaining member to project outwardly from the vertical jamb and bear against the surface of the wall, when in use, to thereby define a standoff distance between the vertical jamb and the wall at the adjustment location. Inserting a tool into an access opening formed in the vertical jamb allows the tool to drive the adjustable spacer outwardly thereby increasing the standoff distance.
