How do you hang a door that doesent fit exsisting door jam?
Short answer, make it fit. Depends on how much it is off and where. If in width and less than an inch, hang it on the hinge side and scribe it to fit the lock side. If more than an inch, measure the opening and take equal amounts off of each side. This is for solid wood doors only. Hollow core or chip filled core only have an inch wide piece of wood on the edges and can only be cut down about 1/2 inch on the sides.

Can you replace the wooden core in a hollow metal door?
I have replaced the bottom portion of the wooden core on several metal doors. I usually gently remove the wood with a putty knife. Sometimes I need to cut the core, which is only a few inches wide, in half to remove it completely. I did this by drilling two holes in it to gain access with a reciprocating saw then cutting it in half. You must then replace the core. I suggest priming any raw wood you can get to inside of the door and replacing it with primed dry pressure treated pine. Good luck.
Can you rip hollow core bi-folds?

A hollow core door actually has a honeycomb of corrugated cardboard inside it to keep it rigid. You can only take about an 1/8 off of either vertical side before the wood gets too thin to hold a hinge screw. You can cut the height down but it's a pain. You'll have to take the piece you've cut off, cut the plywood skin and the ends off it and then mash the cardboard honeycomb back far enough so you can glue the bottom back into it.

How do you cut off 1 off a metal EXTERIOR door?
You can't really or rather you probably shouldn't. They are hollow and the bottom cut edge will rust no matter what you do to it. Normally, you would make the opening taller. If you had to, cut it with an abrasive blade in a circular saw if possible. This will give you a more even cut. I would either cut a board to fit inside the door and glue it in place, or clamp a 2x4 on either side across the face of the door, making sure thickness of the door was the same in the middle and put spray foam insulation in the bottom. Up at least 6 inches. Trim off the excess that comes out after it has hardened. This should seal the door and glue the two faces together.
