What is an internal door architrave?
An internal door architrave is a decorative trim that fits around the edge of a door frame, covering the joint between the wall and the door lining. It provides a clean, finished look while adding character and style to your interior.
Are internal architraves supplied as a set?
Most internal architraves are supplied as individual lengths, allowing them to be cut and mitred on site to suit your doorway. This ensures a precise fit, especially in older properties where openings can vary slightly.
What materials are internal door architraves made from?
Internal architraves are commonly available in timber, MDF, and primed finishes. Timber options offer a natural look and durability, while primed architraves are ideal for painting to match doors, walls, or skirting boards.
Can architraves be matched with my internal doors?
Yes. Our internal door architraves are designed to complement oak internal doors, black internal doors, white internal doors, and painted doors. Choosing matching finishes helps create a cohesive and high-quality finish throughout your home.
Are architraves suitable for modern and traditional interiors?
Absolutely. Simple, square-profile architraves suit modern interiors, while moulded and decorative profiles work beautifully in traditional and period properties. The right choice depends on your door style and overall interior design.
Can internal architraves be painted or stained?
Yes. Primed architraves are ready for painting in your chosen colour, while unfinished timber architraves can be stained, varnished, or painted for a bespoke finish.
Do architraves come with door frames or linings?
No, architraves are typically supplied separately from door frames and linings. This allows you to choose a style and finish that best suits your interior.
