Some finish-framing

I decided to go out and buy the bifold doors for the little closets before finishing the door frames. Despite what is printed on packaging or on websites, I prefer to actually measure stuff before I install it.

Because I had taken great care to build the left side of this closet wall perfectly plumb, I was able to nail a piece of white jamb material directly onto the stud.  On the right side, however, I had to furr the jamb out using various scraps of wood to make it plumb. (The existing wall on the right is not perfectly vertical).

The white door jamb is pine, 4 1/2" wide. It protrudes 1/2" beyond the rough-framing (half-inch drywall will eventually butt up next to it.)

Above and below: The bifold door, purchased at Home Depot for about $35, is a close match to the style of doors throughout the house. I will not actually install the door until the very end, after the room is painted and carpeted. But this test shows that it fits – with proper clearances on all sides for hardware.
