C. Cut the water resistive barrier.
REMEMBER TO USE APPROPRIATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
A. Verify the opening is plumb and level.
Note: It is critical that the bottom is level.
B. Verify the door will fit the opening. Measure all
four sides of the opening to make sure it is 3/4"
larger than the door in width and 1/2" larger in
height. On larger openings measure the width
and height in several places to ensure the header
or studs are not bowed.
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.

ROUGH OPENING PREPARATION
D. Fold the water resistive barrier (1D). Fold side flaps into
