OPEN-STUD CONSTRUCTION
The wall framing
needs to be covered
by backing support
before the door can
be installed. The door
will be mounted with
the nailing n/exterior
trim ush against
the applied backing
support.
This backing support should be a thin (max. 1/8" thick) sheet material
such as plywood or lauan. Completely surround the rough opening with
the backing support as shown. Backing support must be applied before
building wrap.
This installation guide specically addresses masonry/block wall,
sheathed wall and open-stud construction.
MASONRY/BLOCK WALL CONSTRUCTION
This installation
assumes that a
building professional
has already properly
fastened and sealed
a framework of studs
(often called a buck)
to the concrete/
masonry wall.
FULLY SHEATHED WALL CONSTRUCTION
The wall framing is
covered by sheathing
and the door will be
mounted with the
nailing n/exterior
trim ush against
the sheathing. This
installation assumes
building wrap is
properly installed
prior to installation.
