The rough opening should be the same size as the door.

Measure area labeled "headroom"-distance between the top of the
door opening ("jamb header") and the ceiling (or floor joist). 10" is required for standard installation of TORQUEMASTER SpringTM, 12" on standard torsion springs . If you have restricted headroom, special hardware is available. Low headroom hardware is available to reduce requirement to as low as 4-1/2" Note: If door height extends above the opening, the headroom measurement should be adjusted accordingly.
