Question about framing a door opening on a wall small span

Hello, I’m framing a basement closet and am unsure how to approach framing the door to the closet. The wall itself is only about 50 inches, and I’m planning on a 32” rough opening. How do I deal with the sole plate and framing the door in this circumstance? Do I just use a tiny sole plate on each side of the opening and frame the door as usual? The tape measure in the picture has 32 inches laid out for reference. Concrete subfloor. submitted by /u/AFKsince1987 [link] [comments]
