What is the minimum height code requirement for door height. I am making a bathroom and a closet in the basement. Both doors need to trimmed about
2" from the standard 80" door. Will that violate code?Thanks.

Best to call your local building inspector. Codes can vary from town to town.

Per international residential building code adopted by most states, the main exit door must be 80 inches tall and other exit doors need not be, so I only guess that interior doors sure can be 78 inches. A basement ceiling must be
7 feet except for special beams that can take another 6 inches. I strongly suspect you're OK, but call the inspector to be sure.HomeOwnersHub website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here.
