Frame Assembly Illustration
Most doors and door openings are not consistent in height
and width. This frame kit is slightly oversized in order to
accommodate for these variations.
The head jamb and sill should be cut (1/4" - no less) wider than
the door width. The frame width should allow for (1/8" - no
less) reveal.
Cut side jambs (1/8" - no less) for reveal at the top and make
sure the length allows for the bottom door sweep to compress
slightly on the sill for a weather-tight fit.
Note: Make sure the reveal is consistent all the way around the
door to prevent sticking.
