How to Measure Your Door Opening

• To ensure your hidden bookcase door fits perfectly, please follow these simple steps when measuring your Rough Opening (RO):

  • Measure from the door jamb — not the door stop.
    The door stop will be removed when we install the prehung door frame, so please measure only from jamb to jamb.

  • Take two measurements:

  1. RO Width: from the inside of one door jamb to the inside of the opposite jamb.

  2. RO Height: from the floor to the bottom of the top jamb.

  • Submit your exact measurements.

  Once we receive your measurements, Maderra will automatically deduct ¾” from the height and ¼” from the width.

  This provides the necessary clearance and adjustment space for smooth installation of the prehung door frame.

Clearance Reduction by Swing Type

Inswing Doors: Reduce the walkthrough width by approximately 5.7 inches.

• Example: A 36-inch RO will provide a 30.3-inch walkthrough opening.

• Outswing Doors: Reduce the walkthrough width by approximately 12.5 inches.

• Example: A 36-inch RO will provide a 23.5-inch walkthrough opening.   

         




Will a Hidden Bookcase Door work in my opening?




Yes. Our hidden bookcase doors work in all three layouts shown.



Flush opening (flat wall)

• Use our Flush-Mount Hidden Door.

• The unit can be built outswing or inswing. See clearances below.

Single-side return (one short wall at the opening)

• Installs the same as a flush opening.

• Choose outswing or inswing and follow the required clearances.

Hallway / recessed (three-sided return)

• At the hallway entrance: treat it like a flush opening.

• Inside the hallway: you must frame a proper rough opening inside the corridor with a header and jack studs so the prehung unit and casing can fasten securely. Provide at least 2.5 inches of jack-stud width around your door entry.

Swing options

• Outswing: the bookcase swings toward you as you enter the room/hallway.
• Inswing: the bookcase swings away from you into the next room/hallway.

---

Minimum side clearances (critical)

These allow solid fastening to the jack stud and room for casing around the opening.

• Outswing: 2.5 inches minimum clearance from the adjacent return/side wall.
• Inswing: 4.5 inches minimum clearance from the adjacent return/side wall.



Framing & Clearance Requirements

For proper installation, all Maderra doors must be installed in a standard framed opening that includes a header and jack studs on both sides.Wall thickness: A minimum of 2.5″ is required to install casing and trim around the door entry.

• Inswing doors: Require at least 4.5″ of clearance from any wall or obstruction on the side the door swings into. This ensures the door can open fully into the room.

• Outswing doors: Require a minimum wall thickness of 2.5″ for proper installation and casing placement.

• Hallway installations: If your door will be placed in a hallway, it still be framed with jack studs and a header, and may require custom adjustments to fit the space properly.

  
   

Shipment Information & Production Timeline

All orders ship via third-party freight carriers with the following services included:

• Liftgate delivery for safe and efficient unloading

• Scheduled appointment coordinated directly by the freight carrier

• Signature required upon delivery

Inspection at Delivery
Customers have a 15–20 minute window to inspect their shipment upon arrival.
If any significant damage is observed, it must be clearly noted on the Bill of Lading (BOL) before signing and before the driver leaves. In the event, damage happens, this documentation is required to qualify for a freight damage claim with the carrier.

Oversized Crates
Crates exceeding 96 inches in height may require additional assistance during unloading due to freight size limitations. Customers must ensure adequate help or equipment is available at the time of delivery. If extra help or tools (such as a forklift or lift assistance) are needed, they must be arranged by the customer at their own expense. If the freight carrier cannot deliver directly to your location due to size or access limitations, you will be responsible for picking up your shipment from the nearest freight terminal at your own cost. To avoid any delivery complications or added fees, we strongly recommend contacting us before purchasing to confirm delivery feasibility in your area.
