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. Inside Outside 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 1/2″ wider and 1/2″ taller than the total door unit. We find that this allows for sufficient shimming and adjustments during installation. NET FRAME SIZE: WIDTH AND HEIGHT This is the size of the actual door jamb. When determining the net frame size you want to put in a number that is at least a half-inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the door. For example, for a rough opening 48″, order a net frame size of 47 1/2″. Collapse & Return Wood Type Wood Type CHOOSING A WOOD SPECIES We offer a range of wood species to go standard with our doors. If you would like something other than what we have, in most cases we can source other wood types that are not listed below, though prices will vary. As you decide which wood you’ll choose please consider these important factors: How the wood species will react to your climate and site condition How it collaborates 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. Our Standard Selection Images are for reference only. All orders are shipped out unfinished and stain-ready. (No stain or clear-coat.) Mahogany (Sapele) Walnut White Oak Cedar Premium Alder Paint Grade Mahogany (Sapele) African Mahogany (Sapele) is a reddish-brown hardwood wood and is desired for its rarity, strength, and beauty. It is one of our most durable and resists swelling and warping, making it ideal for harsher environments and coastal climates. White Oak White Oak hardwood has a medium brown grain with an olive cast, while the sapwood ranges from a light cream to tan. Its moisture movement is medium to high and it has a good density with a medium to coarse texture. White Oak is more resistant to weathering issues than Red Oak. Cedar Cedar is a light, reddish-brown softwood. This wood is softer than most hardwoods. Cedar’s fine, straight grain and uniform texture provides a smooth surface ideal for staining, although it requires more maintenance than Mahogany. Cedar remains stable and resists warping, making it a reliable and attractive lighter option. Walnut American Black Walnut hardwood is naturally darker in color, much like an espresso brown. It is strong, hard, and exceptionally durable, without being excessively heavy. When sealed there is a dark contrast from the heartwood and sapwood offering an exotic finish. Although Walnut is naturally dark it has the propensity to lighten over time. Premium Alder Premium Alder is a light brown with a yellow or reddish tinge. The wood is fairly straight grained with a uniform texture. Alder is a relatively soft hardwood of medium density that has low bending strength, shock resistance, and stiffness. Premium Alder captures the grain beauty without the rustic feel of open knot. (Will contain some closed knots.) Paint Grade Paint-Grade is a wood that offers a flat surface and is free of knots and heavy grain patterns. Usually Mahogany (Sapele) but can be other woods, will be painted to hide any imperfections. Collapse & Return Plank Height Plank Height The Robyn is available with either 12″ tall planks or 6″ tall planks with a diagonal reveal between planks. 6″ Tall Planks 12″ Tall Planks Collapse & Return Jamb Depth Jamb Depth Jamb depth depends on the thickness of the walls into which the door unit will be placed. Most walls are studded out with 2×4s or 2×6s, and so, our most common jamb depths are 4 5/8″ and 6 5/8″, respectively. Usually the jamb is flush with the interior and exterior wall covering, with the seam covered by casing. We have standard jamb depths of: 4 5/8″ 5 1/4″ 5 1/2″ 6 5/8″ 7 1/2″ If you wish for us to provide a jamb depth different from one of our standard options, please contact us. Inside Outside Collapse & Return Swing Configuration Swing Configuration You have options when it comes to how your door will swing.The first decision is inswing or outswing. In most cases, you will want a door that swings into the interior (inswing), but we are set up to build jambs where the door swings out to the exterior (outswing; typically a commercial application, or when the project permits it).   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 a left-hand or right-hand swing configuration, imagine you are looking at the door from the street. If the pivot point is on the left-hand side, it is a left-hand swing. If the pivot point is on the right-hand side, the door is a right-hand swing. Left Hand Inswing Opens to Interior Left Hand Outswing Opens to Exterior Right Hand Inswing Opens to Interior Right Hand Outswing Opens to Exterior Collapse & Return Pivot Placement Pivot Placement The pivot placement is the distance the pivot pin will be placed away from the vertical edge of the rough opening. Generally speaking, we suggest placing the pivot over one quarter of the distance of the door width. We find that this presents a solid aesthetic for most door dimensions. If your rough opening is 48” and you choose a 9” pivot placement, the door will roughly have a 37” passthrough opening. You want to ensure you leave at least a 36” opening. (Rough opening width – pivot placement measurement – 4″ for jamb = a number greater than 36). See picture for details or contact us for clarification. Pivot Placement Suggested Pivot Placement Door Slab Width Pivot Placement 42″ – 44″ 4″ 45″ – 47″ 6″ 48″ – 53″ 9″ 54″ – 60″ 12″ 61″ – 66″ 15″ 67″ – 70″ 18″ 71″ – 74″ 21″ 75″ – 80″ 24″ 81″ – 84″ 30″ Collapse & Return Window Placement Window Placement If you choose a door style with a window, you have the option to place the window on the handle side or on the pivot side.

Rain Pattern 62 Reed Glue Chip Velve X Custom Glass Tint Greylite II Bronze Collapse & Return Threshold Color & Type Threshold Color & Type Threshold Color You may choose between two different finishes for the aluminum threshold cover plate: Black or Grey. Black Threshold Dark Bronze Anodized Grey Threshold Mill Finished Aluminum Threshold Type If there is any type of wood covering on the interior of the house, you will need a Type 2. The Type 2 threshold has a 90-degree angle on the interior facing side for the wood covering to butt up against. If the exterior floor is the same level as the interior floor, you will need a Type 1 threshold. More commonly, though, the exterior floor is lower than the interior floor and you will need a Type 2 threshold. Threshold Options Threshold Type 1 Threshold Type 2 Threshold Type 2 Collapse & Return Pivot Hardware Pivot Hardware 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. Upgraded Closer: Dorma BTS/80 In commercial applications and in rare residential applications, we install a bottom closer. The bottom closer creates constant tension on the door’s swing to pull the door into the closed position. This means one must hold the door in order to keep it open. With a closer the door will not rest in an open position unless the hold-open feature is activated, which holds the door open at a 100-degree angle. Collapse & Return Custom Handle Custom Handle The Custom Handle for the Kogan door is 3″ wide, 1 1/4″ deep. The length will be determined by your door size in order to fit within the top and bottom rail correctly. the Custom Handle will come unfinished, stain-ready (same as the door). Handle is sold as a set (one for interior and one for exterior). You have an option to choose a different wood type for the handle than for the door. Mahogany (Sapele) is shown in the product photo above. When purchased alongside the Kogan, Pivot Door Company will custom-make your handle to fit your door size, and prep your door appropriately. The handle will still need to be installed on site after the door is installed. This ensures we’re able to appropriately package the handle so it is not damaged during shipping and the door can lay flat for shipping. Collapse & Return Handle Finish Handle Finish Our standard color for the integrated handle is BLK-120 (black). You may choose any color available. We can purchase colors from the link below. Please look through the options. Prismatic Powders allows you to buy samples if you’d like to see the colors in-person. We only need to know the color code. https://www.prismaticpowders.com/shop/powder-coating-colors Collapse & Return Deadbolt & Handleset Prep Deadbolt & Handleset Prep Single Bore If choosing a pull bar setup, you will select Single Bore. We will pre-drill and bore the door for a deadbolt with a 2 3/8″ or 2 3/4″ backset. Standard bore diameter is 2 1/8″ with a 1” cross-bore. The term “backset” refers to the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole and is a personal preference. We suggest the smaller of the two options, 2 3/8″, especially if the door has glass. See the diagram below for more details. Double Bore If choosing a lever or thumb-latch setup, you will select Double Bore. We will pre-drill and bore the door for a 1) lever and 2) deadbolt with a 2 3/8″ or 2 3/4″ backset. Standard bore diameter is 2 1/8″ with a 1” cross-bore. The term “backset” refers to the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole and is a personal preference. See the diagram below for more details. Mortise We can mortise the door for many entry lock sets. Please contact us directly to configure your specific requirements. Other If you wish for your door to be prepped for a handle you purchase from another vendor, you will need to provide us with the specifications for the handle or lockset so we can prep it properly. You may be required to send it to our shop for us to adequately prep your door. Alternatively, you may decide that you want to wait and have a local carpenter prep the door handle.
