Frequently Asked Questions
What is the actual size of 25x69mm ogee architrave?
The 25x69mm dimensions refer to the thickness (25mm) and height (69mm) of the architrave when viewed from the side. This compact size is perfect for standard internal door frames and window surrounds without overwhelming smaller rooms.
How do I cut mitres for ogee architrave corners?
Cut 45-degree mitre joints using a mitre saw or mitre box to ensure clean corner joints. Measure carefully and cut the architrave face-down to prevent chipping the decorative ogee profile. Test fit before fixing to ensure tight joints.
Can I use 25x69mm ogee architrave with any door frame?
This size works well with most standard internal door frames, but check your frame depth first. Position the architrave 5-6mm back from the frame edge to clear door hinges and ensure smooth operation.
What's the difference between timber and MDF ogee architrave?
Timber architrave offers natural wood grain and can be stained, while MDF provides a smooth, consistent finish ideal for painting. MDF is typically more affordable and stable, while timber may be preferred for period properties or natural finishes.
How much ogee architrave do I need per door?
For a standard door, you'll need approximately 5-6 metres of architrave (two uprights at 2.1m each plus one header at 1m, allowing for wastage). Always add 10-15% extra for cutting waste and potential mistakes.
