32 in. x 80 in. Fire-Rated Left Hand Inswing 6 Panel Steel Fire Prehung Commercial Exterior Door with Wood Frame

I purchased this to replace my dated kitchen to garage door. I wanted to comply with the latest codes, so although expensive, I purchased this product. I had heard of the Masonite brand and thought it would be a quality product. I was wrong. The company apparently has no quality control whatsoever or this would have never left the factory. I struggled to get this thing installed as per instructions provided but the door would not close properly and rubbed at the top right side corner when closing. Everything was level and I could not figure out what was wrong. I went to You Tube and saw a video where the guy said the first thing to do is put your level away. The trick is to install doors in a way in which they actually work rather than "by the book". He said the things are almost never built right from the factory. He was right. I followed his "no level" method and now although the frame is not perfectly level there is enough clearance at the top corner to stop the rubbing. The reason the door was rubbing is because it was not put together right in the first place. Please see pictures. The middle hinge was crooked and not flush with the edge. The door gap on the hinge side was almost zero at the bottom and about right at the top. The latch side was also almost nothing at the top and about the normal 1/8 at the bottom. In other words tweaked in the frame Totally misaligned from factory. I uploaded the max amount of pictures which really don't show the problems clearly. I am going to make this work because I had to rent a truck and would have to do so again to return it and also again to buy another (somewhere else). I shouldn't have to repair a door I paid almost $300 dollars for. You don't always get what you pay for. Buy something else.

The door was easy to install and looks great.

thanks for the help!

Very easy to install. Door a lot lighter to close compared to the original.

I bought this to replace my old door which opened from the house to the inside of the garage. Whoever built my house did not take into consideration that installed like this exposes the hinges to the inside of the garage and easy to lift the door off! So I bought this inswing left hand door plus it was listed as self closing and fire rated. Thanks California building codes! The door was simple to install with "The Quick Hanger Door Kit", and regular wood shims. The self closing pins were not in the installation bag. I used a small nail for the pin and set it with a small allen hex wrench. The threshold would be nice if it was adjustable. Nice to have a new self closing, 20 minute fire rated door from the garage to the house.
