You should add 2-1/2″ to the height of the actual door. This will give you room to space the door frame off of the sub-floor. Now all you need to know is how toproperly frame your door rough opening.

So, if you have a bedroom door that is 30″ wide (which is considered a 2/6 or 2′-6″ door) just add 2″ to the width and frame it 32″ wide. The height is 80″ (which is considered 6/8 or 6′-8″) add 2-1/2″ to the actual door height and frame it 82-1/2″ high.

2/0 door = 2/2 R.O.

File cabinet pro 3 9 9. 2/4 door = 2/6 R.O.

2/6 door = 2/8 R.O.

3/0 door = 3/2 R.O.

Why Does the Opening Need to be Bigger than the Door and its Frame? Three Reasons:

1.Room to adjust the door and the framein the opening. Wall framing is called rough framing for a reason. Not all rough openings are completely plumb and square. Leaving this extra space allows you to perfectly plumb, level and square your door installation.

2. Next, not all doors are exactly the same size. The sizes of the door will vary by manufacturer. Normally this isn't much, but if your rough opening was tight, or exactly the size of the door and the jamb, you may not get the door to function properly without having room to adjust.

3. Finally, this leaves room for expansion and contraction of the wall. Yes, your wall gets bigger and smaller as the seasons change. It does this by taking on moisture when it's humid outside and shrinks when temperature and humidity levels drop.

Again, we are talking about small amounts, sometimes less than 1/16″ of an inch, but this can be enough to make that once perfectly fitting door start to stick, rub on the frame or not latch properly.

Door Installation Quick Tip

If you are going to carpet the floor, shim the door jambs off the floor about 3/8″. This will allow carpetto be tucked under the jambs and usually leaves enough clearance so the door doesn't rub on the carpet.

What size rough opening do I need for a double door?

For a normal double door without an astragal, the rough opening is normally 2 times the actual door width, plus 2 inches.

Are interior and exterior rough openings the same size?

Yes and no. Most standard interior and exterior doors will have the same rough opening width, but some manufacturers differ in the height between the two. It's always best to verify the recommended RO from the manufacturer.

Is the rough opening the same size for all door manufacturers?

For standard interior doors, most manufacturers will require the same RO size. However, for sliders, french, and atrium doors, the rough opening size will vary.

My rough opening is too big, what should I do?

If your rough opening is too big, a simple solution is to add a 1×3 furring strip to one or both sides of the opening.

My rough opening is too tall for the top bracket, what should I do?

If your rough opening is too tall, add a 1 x 3 block to the top of the jamb to attach the bracket to.

What if my rough opening is the same size as my door?

If the vertical plane of the wall is mostly plumb and the door fits in the hole, you still may be able to use the brackets. Just be sure to use the single arrow markings on the brackets for screw placement, as it places the screws closest to the outermost part of the wall. The outermost part of the wall is where the drywall is installed, so you will be able to cut notches in the drywall to make room for the screw heads.

More Rough Opening Tips

  • Verify the width and height of the door frame are each 1/2″ smaller than the rough opening width/height.
  • Verify the rough opening is square. The diagonal measurements should be the same. Maximum allowable deviation from square is normally 1/4″.
  • Verify the rough opening is level and plumb. The maximum allowable deviation is 1/8″ to 1/4″.
  • The rough opening sill must not be crowned or sagged.
  • Minimum double studs should be used at all rough openings.
  • The exterior face of the rough opening must be in a single plane.

What's the easiest way to determine the swing or hand of a door? Here are a couple of options. You can decide what's easier for you to remember.

Step in the doorway with your back to the hinges. You will be standing sideways in the opening, looking at the opening where the door latches. If the door and hinges are on the left side, it is a left-hand door. If the door and hinges are on the right side, it is a right-hand door.

Another way:
Always picture this from the inside, or the room the door swings into. Looking and facing the door, if the door-knob is on the left side of the door, it is a left-handed door. If the knob is on the right, it would be a right-handed door.

You can also determine the swing of the door based on whether you're replacing a door vs. installing a new one.

Your product simplifies the process and reduces the labor needed to install a door. I looked online and found the website and ordered enough for the house project we had underway. We like them so much that we ordered a 50 door whole house kit.

I am a 46 year old woman with no door hanging experience. But after my handyman gave me a bid of $1185 for 8 doors to be hung I thought I would give it a try. After googling door hanging I got scared I might have to pay him that until I can across EZ hang. I thought what the heck I can try it. It is so easy and the doors are PERFECT!!! Even my handyman was extremely impressed with how true the doors are and how quick a novice like me got it done!! Thank you EZ Hang I will tell everyone and anyone about how wonderful your product is and lets not forget how quickly the product arrived and what a value it is!!!!

Just to let you know we love the product and will be putting in another door. This is one thing my husband has not done very well, hanging a door, and now you've made it a joy! Thank you for the quick email reply and service with sending me an extra hanger for the sliding door. My husband loved the concept and easy steps. Best to you and your company and American made -- Yes!!!

Yes we have used the EZ Hangs and they were fantastic. Been in the building trades business for over thirty years and the EZ hang brackets are the most inventive and cost and labor savings product I have ever come across. We hung all ten doors in just over three hours. We then noticed we had made a mistake and hung two doors in the wrong location-no problem with the EZ hang brackets- in 45 minutes, thanks to the EZ technology, we had changed out two pre-hung doors and job complete. Thanks again for your prompt help regarding this great labor and time savings product.

Last week my workers spent over two hours trying to install an interior door before I arrived at the job site. I advised them not to waste any more time because I had the solution to their problem. They both laughed at me. So, I went to my truck and retrieved the box of EZ-Hang. Within twenty minutes I had the door hung without any problems. Thank you Easy Hang.

My wife and I hung the door last weekend. I can not believe how easy it was!! At first we were trying to hang the door the old fashion way, using shims.

Sure enough, it was. Thank you so much.

Great product, can re-adjust door frame, so I can fix my mistakes with ease! The screws can be loosened and re-adjust door.
T. MICHEL
The products ordered were as described. Price was fair and shipping cost charged to me was reasonable. Directions were fairly simple but the on-line instructions and video are there if I get confused or need more help. They shipped promptly and I had the product before I was ready to install my doors so I was happy about that.
M. MURRAY
Shipping was quick, and the product worked beautifully! The EZ Door Hangers made hanging two sets of French doors much simpler. Highly recommended!!!
R. JENNINGS
This is a great product. This was my first time hanging a door. I was able to hang each door within minutes and the doors open and close better than my parents who had them installed by high end installers! I would recommend this to everyone who is a do-it-yourselfer.
TIM WILLIAMS
It took me approximately 20 to 30 minutes per door. I hung three doors. Your brackets are great. I will use them again when the need arrives.
RICHARD P.
Thank you, Randy, what wonderful customer service. It's one thing to read and hear about it; it's another to experience it. I'm looking forward to hanging the first of the doors today.
EUGENE L.
I'm just a homeowner in the middle of a basement finishing project. I had never hung a door before so decided to do a little web browsing to find out all about it. I came across your EZ-HANG product which looked to make it much easier for a novice to do the job. A little more web research on how-to videos gave me better details on how to use your brackets on both sides of each door jamb for much better stability. I used your EZ-HANG 9 Doors Builders Box to hang 5 interior doors (with my son helping) in just about 4 hours. What a snap to square up the doors jambs and secure them in place from both sides. You have a great product and I would recommend it to other door hanging novices out there.
DENNIS R
Just wanted to say you have a GREAT product! Honestly, I never hung a door before and these brackets made it really easy to get the door plumb so it operates correctly. After getting the door initially hung I used shims to firmly secure the jamb to the stud as there was slight 'play' with only the brackets holding the jambs in place. If I was putting up the moulding right at that time the nailing of the moulding would also secure the jamb more, but I still have lots of painting before that is done.
DAN MANWARREN
I used your EZ-Hang kit for the first time after fighting with shims in the past, it took 20 minutes start to finish door works perfect, will use your product every time I install a door- Thanks
P PIETROMICCA
This product takes a cumbersome installation and makes it simple. I highly recommend this product. It pays for itself instantly.
E. BURKE
I did not install my doors but the guy who did when asked what he thought of your product simply said 'awesome'. So there you have it. Great product, you made his life much easier. Thanks.
ULDA SANTANA
Everything worked great and even with my limited skills I was able to put the doors up in record time. I wish everything in the world worked this good.
JIM DUSHIN
'Great Product!' I now consider myself 'well hung', my doors that is. I hung ten doors in about 4 hours, BY MYSELF! The doors are plumb and stay where you put them anywhere in the arc. I have been telling all my friends about this wonderful way to hang pre-hung doors. Thanks again.

The product is excellent. I have been screwing around trying to put doors in correctly for months, finally I got one right and it only took about 5 minutes.
Larry M.
I have already told a few friends that I know who have rentals and my handyman about your product. What a great easy to use product that took something so hard to do or expensive to get done, and made it easy and extremely affordable. Rarely do you run into something like this. Thanks!
CARRIE MULANAX
Just wanted to let you know that before we used your EZ-Hang door, it took us two days to hang a new door in the bathroom that we remodeled, my husband and myself and a lot of yelling. Then I was on-line looking for some help on how to make it a little easier to hang the doors, because we were replacing all of the inside doors. So when I came across your ad and I watched the film, I showed it to my husband and he said why not, it can't hurt. So I ordered enough for 3 more doors, we received it in a couple of days. It took us 2 days to do 1 before we got EZ-Hang and about an hour to do the other 3 doors, and they hang better, they open and close properly, it was just great.. my husband tells everyone about your product. Thank you very much
Bonnie P.
The EZ-hang was GREAT!!!!!!!!!!! I'll never use a shim ever again!!!!!
Jay Staska
Your device allowed the easiest door installation I have ever done in 35 years of construction.
Ralph H
I ordered two (2) ezhang kits, used one so far and I can't begin to say how happy we were with the installation. You have a great product that works wonderfully. Thank you so much for a great product that quite simply is easy to use and most importantly it works as advertised!!!!! I will certainly recommend to any and all my friends.
