Abstract
A door positioning device includes a door engaging portion including a door channel that receives a door upper edge. The device also includes a frame engaging portion including a frame channel adapted to receive an associated door frame. A connecting portion extends between and interconnects the door engaging portion and the frame engaging portion. The connecting portion maintains a fixed distance between the door engaging portion and the frame engaging portion. The fixed distance can be adjustable. A method of positioning a door relative to a frame includes placing a door engaging portion of a door positioning device on an upper edge of the door and positioning the door such that a select gap is defined. The device is slid on the upper edge of the door toward the outer edge of the door such that a frame channel of the frame engaging portion receives a portion of the frame.
