Issues in Blender 4 and video Creating the Door Surround

I’ve been following along closely and doing exactly as instructed but this is what happens when I bevel. Time stamp is around 6:18.

First check the normals are all facing the right way.
Then select all, press M and use merge by distance.
It is probably double geometry.

THANKS! Just as a heads up. If I hadn’t just gone to the next section while I had waited I wouldn’t have even known how to check the normals facing the correct way. That’s taught in the dino one. The merge wasn’t needed. It was the normals.
