How to Choose a Door Architrave

Architectural Style

Consider the architectural style of your home. Choose door architraves that complement the overall design. For traditional interiors, ornate and detailed architraves work well, while modern spaces benefit from clean lines and minimalist profiles.

Material Selection

The material of the architrave matters. Common options include wood, MDF, PVC, and plaster. Wood offers a timeless, natural look, while MDF and PVC are versatile, easy to maintain, and often more budget-friendly. Plaster allows for intricate designs and can add a touch of luxury.

Size and Proportion

Ensure that the size and proportion of the architrave match the dimensions of your door and room. Taller architraves can make a room feel more grand, while smaller ones provide a subtler touch. Balance is key to achieving a harmonious look.

Finish and Paintability

Decide whether you want pre-finished architraves or primed ones that you can paint to match your interior decor. Pre-finished architraves save time but limit your colour choices, while primed options offer customisation.
