step 3 DRYWALL FRAMING

• The preferred install method for eyebrow and radius top doors is to wait to install the drywall until after the door arrives. However, if that isn’t possible, then the builder should run the drywall across the height of the door’s arch-spring point. Then, when the door arrives. Set the door against the drywall, and mark the radius on the drywall with a pencil. Then, cut the drywall to fit the door.
