Abstract
A tool for use during installation of a pre-hung door. The tool includes a base and at least one orientation indicator, such as a bubble level, mounted to the base. The tool also includes at least one spacer extending from the base. The at least one spacer may be positioned between an edge of a door panel and a respective adjacent portion of a door frame. The tool may also include at least one tongue extending from the base in a direction opposite the at least one spacer. The at least one tongue may be positioned between a weather strip and a face of the door frame so that the tool can remain in place when the door panel is open relative to the door frame.
