Step 1 of 5
Will it fit?
What kind of hidden door?
What are you measuring?
Measure the width
Heads up: Surface Mount overlays a
finished wall. Finish the drywall, paint, and trim around
the opening before install, or exposed studs will show.
Measure the width of the existing door jamb (green).
Measure the rough opening width, stud to stud.
Enter your existing door width below
Enter your rough opening width below
Enter a whole number of inches (0–199).
That’s outside our standard sizes.
Call 801-436-5918 for a custom order.
Measure the height
Measure from the floor to the top of the existing door jamb (not the
door-stop).
Measure the rough opening from the floor to the header.
Enter your existing door height below
Enter your rough opening height below
Enter a whole number of inches (0–199).
That’s outside our standard sizes.
Call 801-436-5918 for a custom order.
Choose your jamb depth
Measure the depth of the existing door jamb (edge to edge, green),
then pick the closest match.
Measure the wall thickness (drywall face to drywall face), then pick
the closest match.

Before You Install: Finish Those Walls First
Surface Mount sits over a fully finished opening: drywall,
paint, and trim done, just like an existing doorway. If
you’re still mid-construction, finish those edges out
first, or the raw sheetrock and framing around the door will
stay visible once it’s mounted.
