Patent attributes
Aspects of the disclosure relate to a frame assembly, such as a door frame assembly for hanging a door. A frame assembly can include a longitudinal adjustment mechanism and a shim jack for connecting to the adjustment mechanism. The shim jack can include a longitudinal body with a first leg and a second leg extending from a base of the longitudinal body. The frame assembly can also include a frame with a jamb leg for adjustably connecting to the adjustment mechanism. The jamb leg can define a port for receiving the shim jack, and the adjustment mechanism may be operable to move the base of the shim jack with respect to the jamb leg to brace the frame assembly within an opening, e.g., by moving the first leg and the second leg against a framing member that defines the opening.
