Single Rabbetted Jamb

This describes a particular sort of door jamb that is generally found with interior doors. It gets its name from the single groove, or rabbet that is milled all the way around the frame. The door then swings into these grooves. This way, the jamb itself is a solid piece of wood, and the jamb itself keeps the door from swinging too far and breaking the hinges.

For more on this or other kinds of jambs, go to the FAQ page in the door menu.
