1ROUGH OPENING PREPARATION

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

Note: It is critical the bottom is level.

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