Howdy,

Ok, just wanted to double check something...

The clopay install guide I downloaded off the web says that the rough 
opening for a garage door _is_ the size of the door...  So in my case 
where I've got an 18'x7.5' garage door I'm going to be putting in, I want 
a RO 18'x7.5', correct?

Is this common across all garage doors?  I'm not certain I'll be going 
with Clopay at this point, but I need to get the door rough opening done.

I'm replacing two single doors with a double door and pouring a new floor 
in our attached garage.  I'm planning to frame in the RO for the new door, 
pour the floor, then install the garage door.  So, it might be a while 
before I get to buying/installing the door, but I need the RO done soon so 
that I can get moving on the floor (hopefully before the concrete folks 
shut down here in OH).

Thanks!

Mark
