For many people the entryway between house and garage is the most used door in the home.
House exit door into garage.
Since garage doors are an exit we would install the doors to open in the path of least resistance.
Whether your garage leads into your kitchen mudroom or hallway you want that door to be durable enough to handle daily traffic and reflect your personal style.
The opening in the wall needs to be 4 inches wider and one inch taller than the pre hung entry door.

A remodeler doing a flip house changes out all the doors in the home to update the interior and replaces the old door to the garage with a hollow core interior door.
Do the same inside the garage.
Remove two of the studs in the wall and create a 41 inch opening with the studs that were removed.
Remove any outside wall covering to expose the wall where the door will be installed.
Garage entry doors we install doors that open from the garage into the house on either side of the frame.
We recommend that the door between garage and residence should be equipped with a self closing device although no longer required by the irc and fbc.
