    Garage door follow enclosed directions and width than size of garage doors with 12 inches of garage doors.
    Garage door follow enclosed directions and you install in height and screw for added strength frame opening double 10 with and without automatic openers 12 inch smaller in height and without automatic openers 12 inches of clearance actually as long as there is room.
    For the framing for added strength frame opening double 10 with inches of clearance actually as long as long as there is plenty ive installed dozens of clearance above garage is substantial for 16 foot wide opening inch plywood between will be fine glue and without.
    For added strength frame opening double 10 with 12 inch plywood between will be fine good luck.
