DOOR AND WINDOW FRAMING
Rough openings made easy.
Interior door and window framing is a whole lot easier with RedHeader RO.
™
RedHeader RO can cut your labor time in half. It’s designed to replace conventional
boxed or lay-in headers and built-up jambs and provide better results in half the
time. One-piece headers and jambs eliminate the additional studs, tracks, and screws
required to frame conventional rough openings. Headers and jambs are also pre-cut to
specified lengths to eliminate field cutting. The adjustable Drop
’
N Lock
™
clip makes
field adjustments a snap and provides a flat surface for a smooth drywall finish.

Headers are prepunched, and
pre-cut to the length specified
on your order. Header depth is
1/8" narrower than jamb depth to
accommodate fit into Drop ’N
Lock Clip. Header lengths should
be ordered 1/2" shorter to fit inside
our Drop ’N Lock clips.

RedHeader RO HEADER
Prepunched slots allow for
vertical field adjustments before
fully attaching the clip, through
the prepunched holes, to the
RedHeader RO jamb stud. The
“box-style”
clip design makes it easy
to drop the header
into place and
allows for one-man installation,
even
on large header spans. The clip is the
same width as the jamb stud, reducing
material
buildup at this connection
eliminating additional corner bead
and taping costs.

As part of the RedHeader RO
system, the jamb eliminates capped
members, allowing drywall screws to
drive through only one thickness of
material. Plus, the open jamb does
not require pre-insulating.
