Mouldings are extremely versatile and can be used for many DIY projects around your home. Mouldings can be used to apply decorative features to your home, hide gaps or joints in woodwork, add practical features to a room, such as a protective dado rail or used in woodworking joints.

The amount of architrave you’ll need depends on the size of the door and the style of moulding. Generally, you'll need about 3 metres (10 feet) of architrave to frame a standard-sized door, with extra for any intricate cuts. For larger doors, you might need more. It’s always best to measure your door frame first and buy a little extra, just in case!

While it’s not a strict rule, matching architrave to skirting boards can create a more consistent look throughout the room. If you want to achieve a more traditional aesthetic, we recommend using the same profile for both. However, mixing different styles can work too, you can achieve this in a space by using a more decorative architrave and a simpler skirting, for example, to add contrast.
