Got something nice to add to the door frame analogy: In CSS, there is padding and margin.

Padding is the inner additional space of an HTML element,while margin is the space surrounding the element.

So for the analogy of the door frame, what we need to know is the margin (the whole outside dimensions), NOT the padding, which could be eg. include the door angles.
