A.Confirm the opening is plumb and level. Ensure the bottom of the rough opening does not slope toward the interior.

Note: For peak water performance it is critical the bottom be level within +/- 1/16".

B.Confirm the door will fit the opening. Measure all four sides of the opening to make sure it is 1/2" larger than the door in width and height. Measure the width at the top, bottom, and center. Measure the height at the far left side, the far right side, and in the center.

Note: 1-1/2" or more of solid wood blocking is required around the perimeter of the opening. Fix any problems with the rough opening before proceeding.

C.Nail-fin only: Cut the water resistive barrier (1C).
