Symbol Creation Help Needed

After seeing some of the symbols you folks create, it's embarrassing to say that I need something as simple as a three panel door.  I followed the instructions for symbol creation but somehow I keep ending up with this.  The door looks fine in elevation as stand alone thing during the building of the symbol process but as soon as I create the symbol the whole thing seems to be facing the wrong way.  I have built it parallel and perpendicular but it still is coming out wrong.  

 

Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?

Looks like you need to adjust your rotation on the symbol once it's imported.  You may also need to create appropriate stretch planes.  There are quite a number of good tutorial videos on basic symbol creation that covers this stuff.  The stretch planes can cause some head scratching.
