Door Head Size Different from Jamb

[RickS - Lab 8]

Is there anyway to specify a Door Frame Head Size so that it is different from the Jamb size?

[Robert Anderson]

Short answer, no. Just wondering -- how would you use this? (Alternatively, in what construction situations is this important?)

I have been looking for the door tool to be able to accomidate a 4" head for use in modular masonry construction. i.e 3070 door in a 3'4" x 7'-4" masonry opening. A pretty common situation using a metal door with hollow metal frame.

yes very common condition. 2" jamb and 4" head for a hollow metal frame in a masonry wall. I was hoping to find that this had bee addressed over the years.

I'm amazed this simple function hasn't been added yet.
