How do I fit rising hinges, is it a straight replacement and then remove bits of the door that catch on the top of the frame?

I just screwed them into the places on the door and the frame where the original (non-rising) hinges had been. I had to chamfer a little bit off the top corner of the door, that's the top corner nearest the hinge (not the handle) edge. To figure out how much to chamfer off, I closed the door, noted where the top corner caught on the frame, and used a Stanley block plane on it.
