Can Anything Be Easy?

Well I got the Rav running and picked up the fireplace at Menard's. Got it all put together and ready to install but when I fit it against the brick, it became apparent that went the interior swinging screen door is open, it kicks against about 1/2" of brick causing the unit to push away from the wall. Otherwise, the unit looks great. Sharp brushed nickle finish. Clean, black screen doors. A real nice accent to the decor.

I'm going to either need to cut out a chunk of brick to allow the doors to swing or I'm going to need to hire someone to install the thing. That would be very disappointing since it appears that normally, it's an easy installation process. And right now the place is awash in cardboard, packing straps and styrofoam. Apparently, nothing can be easy. Grrrr. Arrrgh.
