Q: What is the length of each rabbet? I need them both to be about 1 7/8"
A: These spats can be ordered as equal rabbet, which would be 1-15/16" on each rabbet OR unequal rabbet which would be 1-15/16" rabbet on one side and 1-9/16" rabbet on the other side. Please specify equal or unequal rabbet at the time of order.
Q: When ordering a spat do I order per the dimensions of the existing frame or are there sizing instructions?
A: Since frames are not "all the same" order per the dimensions of the existing frame.
Q: So I do not need to account for any sort of clearance when ordering? Is that calculated at order entry?
A: You do not need to provide specific manufacturing sizes that account for the nature of the spat. As an example a spat for a 5-3/4" Jamb Depth x unequal rabbet x 2" face x 5/8" stop can be ordered as such. We account for the size of the jamb onto which the spat is to be installed on/over.
