Window & door placement issue

Some windows and doors when installed show gyprock lining on the inside of the window or door. Some doors show they have been installed on the inside of the building but not shown on the outside in the brick veneer wall?
I have tried deleting and reinstalling but it doesn’t change. The opening has been made in the frame correctly though.

Hi James,

This normally happens when the opening is too close to the corner or end of the wall.

If you move the opening along the wall away from the corner (likely 20mm) it should resolve the issue.

This is purposely developed into PlusSpec to highlight the issue that will occur during construction. Essentially, there is insufficient room for clearance and trim. You could reduce the cavity and rough stud opening clearance if you’re trying to make the door work with standard brickwork openings.
