Then I would just jig saw out the door (half the frame would stay on the door and half would remain with the wall) and it would match the cutout. I think if you installed the door immediately then it would kind of get in the way during the build (all the getting in and out of the trailer and bringing hardware and tools in and out).
I somewhat followed this process in my build. In the first picture you see the outside of my plywood "framing". In the framing, I routed through for the door except at certain points I only routed half depth. I then applied the engineered flooring for the interior finish. The door was rough cut with a jig saw. The second picture is the door before the edges were cleaned up with a router and pattern bearing bit. I also cleaned up the opening this way.
Gig'em, Tom
That's exactly what I was thinking -- you get EXTRA bonus points though for pre-cutting the door! Very nice execution
