Help fitting a square door into a trapezoid doorway
(i.imgur.com)
I moved my business into a new building, and there is a doorway i want to put up a door in it. However the doorway is about 1/4" narrower at the bottom, than the top. Neither of the top corners are square. I am looking for the easiest way with the least amount of work and knowledge needed to hang this door. It is only a barrier, it is not for security. It will be closed most of the time, so i am not worried if it is going to naturally swing open or closed.
Also, the cuts for the hinges on the door and the frame do not line up. I am fine with buying a new door, but I would rather not replace the frame of i can avoid it.
Any suggestions?
The door is upside down because of the hinges. If I turn it left-side up the hinges face into the frame. When I redo the notches for the hinges I planned to flip the door, but since half are still on the door itself it will not go into the frame as is.
