I want to frame the rough opening. What are the rough in dimensions. I already ordered it, but want to get a head start on the framing.

Sorry, I built (framed) ours in last summer and don't remember what the dimensions were. For me, a lay person, to do the rough in, the support of the sleeve and run the wiring took me about 3 hours. I am a perfectionist and double checked everything as I went. Good luck and have fun!

I would have preferred 1.5" black edge, but don't think that was an option when I ordered my canvas. We ended up purchasing a frame and the canvas fit perfectly in the frame.

We just installed this cabinet 2 weeks ago. The rough wall opening needs to be 19-1/8 inches x 25-1/8 inches x 3-7/8 inches. It's a great cabinet. Very pretty, well made and deceptively large. I recommend it! Good luck!

Unfortunately I moved from the home I had this wall quote in - i am working from memory. The 28" is the width of the quote because I had it between two frames that were 20" in height and I know it didn't pass up the length of those. If that doesnt help your decision to buy, your should know that Amazon is very easy to work with if this product doesnt meet your expectations. I do plan on re-ordering for my new place!

No. Use 2"X4"X8' or 6' lumber. Be selective in the grade of lumber you choose. I do not recommend framing or construction grades. I have made several of these for my married children and made that mistake only once. I had to rebuild that one after less than a year. Also, finish with a spar or marine varnish, or better, for the best results. Three coats minimum.

Not so much. The frame is a breeze. The fabric is a tangled mess. It won't unroll without snagging itself. The instructions recommend two people, I'd recommend at least two. I did it myself. I did not have a lot of yard because of having a very wooded yard. If you have a lot of room, roll the whole thing out so you can get it untangled. Then stretch it around the frame. Once I finally got it wrapped, I had to go around and twist many of the strands from top to bottom to line them all back up. I personally recommend a unit that is pre assembled panels. They will go together in under a half hour. But, you will get a sense of accomplishment when you do finish this one. One other thing. I had a pre built one years ago for a former dog. He was very strong and would grab the fabric at the bottom and rip it loose. Then he could crawl through. I screwed wood along the bottom and that stopped him. This time, with this unit, I used pipe clamps every 6" along the bottom instead of the included aluminum ties. It's much sturdier. The aluminum ties are too easily pulled loose because they are just too short to really tie.

Well, i built a simple wood frame, but you could just as easily screw the material into the wall at the studs, and you can always patch the holes up with spackling when you move. Then use that 4 inch 1mm black felt tape around the borders. I like the tape. It finishes it ff nice and helps square up the picture. JVCC-felt06 is what I used.

This should be the info you are looking for: Rough cut out dimension is 9-1/2 wide x 11-3/4 high. Flap Size dimension is 8-3/4 wide x 10-1/4 high. The actual outside frame dimension is 11-3/8 wide x 13-3/4 high. It is made very well and easy to install. Both our dogs and cats can use this door with ease.

Sorry I didn't see this come through my email till now, I think it should fit fine in a 1/4" groove in the frame.

I have a metal frame. I don't know if this helps, but I just measured the diameter and height of the old one and searched for one that matched the dimensions. Worked for me.

Sorry I can't help because the contractor installed it. I did notice a few dings around the frame which indicated he had some trouble with it so you're not alone. It 's really beautiful so hope you can get it to fit. Mine snaps shut tight so I wonder if yours was damaged in shipping. Good luck

I installed this in a 3/4th inch board and put a frame around the opening. I used a piece of half inch thick pine board and cut 1 inch wide strips to make the frame. This made the opening thick enough to screw in the cat door.

That is outside. They give the inside dimensions on a drawing somewhere on amazon. You need 14.5 in inside width on the stud bay

Actually a very good question. No, the Amazon Prime vendor does not tell you, but a different listing (not prime) had it laid out in more detail. This gave me an opportunity to get some lumber education. You will want to use Cedar. The legs are 4"x4"x8'. The beam is either a 4"x6"x10', or 2-2"x6"x10' pieces bolted together (I used the bolts that are included and a tube of commercial grade liquid nail). The things you'll have to settle on are how long you really want the beam. It could be a little longer or shorter. My lumber guy only had 12' so I cut some off. If you use 2"x6" material, you will want to add a piece to fill the bracket from side to side. The other thing you need to decide before you buy lumber is "rough" or "smooth." Rough cedar is larger than smooth cedar. Best thing you can do is go to a good lumber yard and give them the exact inside dimensions of your brackets, or even wait and take one in with you, and have them explain the dimensional difference between rough and smooth so you get the right thing the first try. In the end, I bought the smooth, filled the bracket perfectly with short cut pieces, and shimmed the leg brackets so they would be tight, also. Good luck.

Chandramohan , I built my own frame out of 2x6 . The box springs and mattress rest on top . I also screwed the frame ( head board, foot board and both side rails ) together because they kept coming apart . Now it is one solid frame. After a lot of doing this and doing that , it is finally the way I believe it should be. If I had to do this over again I would probably just buy a bed from some place like Rooms to Go and let the store employees deliver and put the whole thing together and leave all the work out of it for me.

I did something similar, and I liked the effect. I like how it makes it into a continual frame-like experience at a distance. Close up, you can see the gap between the 48" and the 6" piece. I've thought about a black piece of electrical tape to eliminate the gap. Hanging it was no problem - I put one hanger on the small piece and the other on the long piece, and I alternated (put the small piece on the other corner at the bottom then it is on the top) to increase structural integrity. All in all, it works.

No, there are no recommendations for framing. You might try asking at ask.com.
