Installing a Set of Four - Panel Bifold Doors

If you're using a prepackaged set of bifold doors, compare the manufacturer's specs with your rough opening. If you're using a hardware pack age in conjunction with standard doors, consult the instructions to figure how to deduct from the opening size to find the door size.

Trim the doors, if necessary. Check the floors to make sure they’re level and correct any discrepancies with shims on the low side. If carpet or finish flooring ill be added later, you'll also need blocks on, both sides of the opening that are equal in thickness to the flooring. For carpet, allow 3/8 in. to ¾ in., depending on the pile of the carpet. For hardwood flooring, allow 3/4 in.
