Thanks Captain.

If I could only get the rest of my useless siblings to come and help do the other things it would be great.

I will definitely call you if I run into trouble.

One thing I already notices is this.

The rough openings are all just fractions of an inch SHORT of being either 4 ft. or 5 ft.wide openings.

I guess I have to see what the bi-fold actually is per side before worrying that I am going to have to trim these stinking things. I simply want something to fit without me having to do a lot more work.

When I say the opening are a fraction of an inch, I mean that a 48 inch opening is really only 47 1/2 and same for the 60 inch rough openings.

I just wondered why the carpenters didn't make these openings the exact dimensions....

Always something.....

Read the specs for your bi-fold and make sure they will fit the hole. Then just follow the instructions. It's not that bad, There will be some adjusting to get them to close right, with a little friction and all the revels the same........ You have my number big bro, If you need me to walk you through it, Just give a call.................
