You'll need a hammer, nail gun or screws, shims, a level, tape measure, utility knife, and a drill. A reciprocating saw is helpful if you need to adjust the rough opening. Full tool list is included in the installation guide PDF.

Standard rough opening is 2" wider and 2½" taller than the door slab size. For example, an 80" × 32" door requires a rough opening of approximately 82½" × 34". Always verify before ordering.

Pre-hung doors can be installed by a confident DIYer with basic carpentry skills. However, for new construction framing, out-of-square openings, or exterior doors requiring weatherproofing, we recommend a professional installer.

Minor variations (up to ¼") can be corrected with shimming during installation. Larger gaps may require reframing the opening. Contact our team — we can advise on the best approach for your specific situation.

Most doors ship as slab or pre-hung without hardware unless specified. Door levers, handles, and hinges are available separately. Contact us to spec the right hardware for your door model.
