    First, I would fill the cracks with wood from the top, even slightly bending the crack so that the wood would go as deep as possible, then dry wipe the white surfaces where I expect compression, glue the left white side surface intended for compression everywhere with a 4 cm wide colorless tape, place a wider vertical board under it and place it on the glued colorless tape and on the gap, and squeezed it with two carpenter`s clamps, placed on the entire door frame together with the board, but one should be in front of the transverse gap and the other one lower, and waited at least 12 hours, and painting on the next day , after removing the colorless tape. After squeezing, wipe the front surface of any wood that comes out of the crack... The wood is white, sometimes the joint will be so white that you don`t need to paint it...

    I would fasten it with a piece of stainless steel flat bar and screws or white screws.

    I had the same experience. First, I drilled holes so that the screw head would hide. Then I poured viscosity into the crack and put 3 screws. Then I sanded the wood filler and applied the paint.

Topic summary

To repair a cracked door frame, several methods were suggested. One approach involves using WIKOL glue and clamps to secure the crack. Another method includes filling the crack with wood, applying colorless tape for compression, and using carpenter's clamps to hold the frame together for at least 12 hours before painting. An alternative solution is to fasten the frame with a stainless steel flat bar and screws. Additionally, drilling holes to hide screw heads, applying wood filler, and sanding before painting were recommended as effective steps for a clean finish.
