Cedar Door Shims (Bundle)
These are cedar door shims, thin tapered wedges sold by the bundle. They are used to level, plumb and square door and window frames and to pack gaps behind trim, cabinets and fixtures.
Shims are for packing and alignment, not for carrying load. Cedar is light and splits cleanly to size, and it resists rot, so it is a common pick for exterior door and window installs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are door shims used for?
Shims fill small gaps between a door or window frame and the rough opening, so you can set the frame level, plumb and square before you fasten it.
Can shims carry weight?
Shims keep a frame aligned, but they are not structural. Fasten the frame through the shims into the framing, and do not use a stack of shims to carry a heavy load.
How do I trim shims flush?
Score the shim with a utility knife and snap it, or cut it with a flush-cut saw once the frame is fastened.
