ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An alignment assembly for aligning a door in a door jamb as the door is rotated into a closed position is disclosed. The door alignment assembly includes at least two door alignment components mounted in proximity to one another generally opposite the pivot axis of the door, one alignment component mounted on the door and the other alignment component mounted on the door jamb. The door alignment components include an alignment wedge having an arcuate surface and an alignment assistor having an angled lateral edge positioned to contact the arcuate surface of the alignment wedge along a substantially point contact to align the door in a top/bottom orientation in the door jamb. The alignment wedge also includes a tapered interface surface extending in a plane substantially perpendicular to the arcuate surface, the interface surface being positioned to contact an opposing surface of the door or door jamb when the door is in the closed position to align the door in a fore/aft orientation with respect to the door jamb. An improved method for simultaneously aligning the door and the door jamb in top/bottom and fore/aft orientations is also provided.
