Buying Helps
Net Frame Size
Use the information below when choosing a Frame Width and a Frame Height. We sell doors by frame size, the actual door size will be less than the frame size.
Available Widths and Heights
For pre-built doors, you may choose from the following frame widths and heights:
- Frame Widths: 43 1/2 in., 49 1/2 in.
- Frame Heights: 81 3/4 in., 97 3/4 in.
Measurements to Know
When sizing the door you will need to consider two principle measurements, rough opening and frame size. See the image below for reference.
Casing included for illustration purposes only, not included in purchase price
Rough Opening
The rough opening is the distance from stud to stud for framing purposes. We advise that you build a rough opening that is ½ in. wider and 1/2 in. taller than the total door unit. We find that this allows for sufficient shimming and adjustments during installation.
Wood Type
Choosing a Wood Species...
For pre-built doors we offer four wood types: Mahogany (Sapele), Walnut, Paint Grade, White Oak. If you would like a greater range of wood types to choose from, you will need to order a customized exterior door.
As you decide which wood you'll choose, the most important factor is how the wood species goes with the overall design of the door and your project. If you have specific questions about what wood to choose that are not answered here, feel free to reach out to us.

Walnut

Jamb Depth
Jamb depth depends on the thickness of the walls into which the door unit will be placed. For pre-built exterior pivot doors, we offer three jamb depths: 4 5/8 in., 5 1/2 in., and 6 5/8 in. Usually the jamb is flush with the interior and exterior wall covering, with the seam covered by casing.
Available Jamb Depths*
- 4 5/8 in.
- 6 5/8 in.
*You will need to order from our Customizable line if you need a different jamb depth from what is available above.

Threshold Color
All pre-built doors come with a choice of a black or grey aluminum threshold.
Black (Dark Bronze Anodized)
Grey (Mill Finish Aluminum)
Threshold Type
All pre-built doors come with a Type 2 threshold. Type 2 thresholds are suitable when there is any type of wood covering on the interior of the house. The Type 2 threshold has a 90 degree angle on the interior facing side for the wood or tile covering to butt up against.
If the exterior floor is the same level as the interior floor, you will need a Type 1 threshold (available with our Customizable line). More commonly, though, the exterior floor is lower than the interior floor and you will need a type 2 threshold.

Swing Configuration
When you order your pivot-hung entryway, you have options when it comes to how the door will swing. Because 99% of the time, you will want a door that swings into the interior (in-swing), our pre-built line only comes as an in-swing.
When it comes to right-hand or left-hand swing, the layout of your installation site will determine the swing configuration. To determine if the door is left-hand or right-hand in-swing, imagine you are looking at the door from the street. If the pivot point is on the left side, it is a left-hand in-swing. If the pivot point is on the right-hand side, the door is a right-hand in-swing.

Free-swing Pivot Hinge
Our standard pivot hardware is a durable, specially engineered free-swing pivot hinge. This pivot hardware works for a wide range of doors, from small to very large. No matter the door size, the free-swing pivot hinge allows for effortless door operation. The hardware incorporates sets of ball-bearings for smooth, long-lasting performance. The door swings freely around the pivot point. There are no springs or tension pulling the door closed.
Pivot Placement
The pivot placement is the distance the pivot pin will be placed away from the vertical edge of the rough opening. Pre-built doors have set pivot placements.
Fixed Pivot Placements
43 1/2 in. Frame Width comes with a 4 in. pivot placement, allowing for a pass through of 36 5/16 in.
49 1/2 in. Frame Width comes with a 8 in. pivot placement, allowing for a pass through of 38 5/16 in.
Glass Color
You have the option of having a clear glass or frosted white glass.
Glass Sidelight
In many cases, customers wish to purchase sidelights for their door units. We build sidelights directly into the door unit, so the jamb and sidelights connect seamlessly. All you need to do is tell us what kind of sidelights you want, what size they should be and what kind of glass you want.
Glass Sidelight Placement on Door
With pre-built doors, you can choose between three sidelight configurations:
- Right Sidelight
- Left Sidelight
- Double Sidelight
Sidelight placement is specified with reference to the exterior view. If you want a 12" sidelight that is on the right side when viewed from the exterior, click on the dropdown options under "Right Sidelight" and select the option: 12" right sidelight. If you want a double sidelight, simply a size under both the the Right Sidelight and Left Sidelight options. Double sidelights can be of different sizes.
Sidelight Width
You have a choice of four sizes (6”, 12”, 18”, 24”) when ordering a sidelight with a pre-built door. The door will be built with the sidelight attached so the height of the door and the height of the sidelight will be the same.
Example: A door that is 49 1/2" x 97" with a 12" x 97" right sidelight will get you a door and sidelight combo that measures 61 1/2" x 97" (the rough opening size should be somewhere around 62" X 97 1/2").
