Watch how you measure your diagonals. One side is likely to be longer than the other if the floor isn't level.

I checked and the top of my framing is parallel to the ceiling, so I made the side jams perpendicular to the top jam. Actually, I need to check that again. The side jams are definitely parallel, but I need to take some diagonal measurements to be certain they are perpendicular to the top. I had some incorrect concepts about how the doors actually work. I have seen bifold doors in the past that had top and bottom rails, and the free end of the door actually rested on a pin in that lower track. The doors everyone describes now, and the doors I purchased, do work as you explain. The top pin is just a guide and there is no lower track. The doors are completely supported at the hinge end.
