Door Frames & Mouldings
A door frame is the backbone of any doorway, providing the essential support and structure needed for your door to function smoothly and securely. Whether it's for an interior door frame or an exterior door frame for an entrance, the right frame ensures a perfect fit and improves the overall look of your space.
When picking a new door frame, size isn't the only thing that matters. You'll also want to think about materials like wooden door frames or oak door frames because they last long and look good.
When replacing an old frame or installing a new door, it's important to select a frame that matches your skirting boards, architraves, and the room's look. The right door frame not only secures your door in place but also complements your home’s style.
Moulding is a key decorative element that brings definition and character to your interiors. Used to frame doors, windows, and walls, moulding can create smooth transitions between surfaces, hide joints, or simply add an elegant touch to any room.
