Tips for Choosing Architrave in Heritage Homes

When selecting your mouldings, keep these factors in mind:

📏

Match existing profiles

Measure existing architraves to find a DB Wood profile that closely matches the original. This preserves harmony throughout the home.

🌲

Consider timber type

We provide both softwood and hardwood options. Softwoods are easier to work with and paint; hardwoods offer superior grain and longevity.

🎨

Finish options

Some homeowners prefer paint-grade profiles for a crisp white finish, while others opt for natural wood stains to showcase timber beauty.

📐

Size & scale

Heritage architraves tend to be larger and more pronounced than modern trims. Choose widths and thicknesses that reflect the era.
