Two whole days to fit a door and still not finished? Sadly,yes.
The problem is, as always, because we live in a 125 year old house. In those days, everything was bespoke and the frame of this door is set into the walls, the wood is original and I have tried, unsuccessfully, to remove it. So I have had to shave it down and make the frame fit the new door as I really don't want to mess with the door. I have managed to get the frame on the hinge side in and fixed and I have just hung the door. Now all I have to do is match the opposite side of the frame to the door by inserting some small slices of wood and then fit the top in a similar manner. Once all that is done, I just have to fit the door handles and catch.
