Pre-Hung Door Unit Squareness and Reveal Check

Inspection template for verifying pre-hung door unit frame squareness, consistent reveal, and proper slab gap to prevent binding and reduce field rework.

Inspection Details

• Door location or unit identifier recorded
  Record the room, opening number, or unit identifier for the pre-hung door being inspected.
• Inspection date and time recorded
  Capture when the inspection was performed.
• Inspector name recorded
  Identify the person performing the inspection.
• Door type and handing verified
  Confirm the installed unit matches the intended door type and handing.

Frame Squareness and Plumb

• Frame is square within tolerance
  Measure diagonal-to-diagonal difference or equivalent squareness check for the assembled frame.
• Jambs are plumb and not twisted
  Confirm the side jambs are plumb and free of visible twist or bow.
• Head jamb is level
  Confirm the head jamb is level across the opening.

Reveal and Gap Verification

• Reveal is consistent at hinge side
  Measure the visible gap between the slab and jamb at the hinge side at top, middle, and bottom.
• Reveal is consistent at latch side
  Measure the visible gap between the slab and jamb at the latch side at top, middle, and bottom.
• Head reveal is consistent
  Measure the gap between the top of the slab and the head jamb.
• Bottom gap is adequate and uniform
  Measure the clearance between the bottom of the slab and the finished floor or threshold.

Operation and Finish Condition

• Door opens and closes without binding
  Cycle the door through full travel and confirm smooth operation.
