What are door architraves?

An architrave is the interior moulding that frames your doors. It is used to both enhance the look of a room and hide unsightly seams and joints in the wall that are often impossible to conceal. Commonly made from MDF, softwood, and hardwood, architraves come in many styles to suit the style of your home or the decor theme you’ve created. 

What is the difference between a door frame and an architrave?

An architrave is just as much a part of a door frame as the jambs and door lining. The door frame is the supportive structure that holds the wall opening together, and the architrave creates an added aesthetic, depending on the style you choose.

What are the types of architrave?

Architraves are typically engineered in MDF, solid timber oak, and white. But we supply a wide range of materials, colours, and finishes to ensure the perfect look for your home.

Types Of Architrave

There are three main categories of architrave:

Bullnose Architrave

A widely popular style, the bullnose architrave is a flat frame with a curved edge, providing a timeless, clean finish.

Decorative Architrave

With an ornamental look, the decorative architrave features grooves and uneven surfaces and mostly appears in older houses.

Square Architrave

With straight edges and no curves, a square architrave is the simplest type of architrave and is becoming more popular with the growing contemporary style homes being built and renovated today.

Here at Leader Online, we have many styles of architrave for you to choose from. Matching your architrave to your window frames and skirting boards can result in a clean look for any room.

Important Information - We strongly advise that you do not book in fitters until you have received your goods and inspected them first. We cannot accept liability for any third-party costs resulting from unforeseen delivery delays or product issues.

What do I do on the day of my delivery?

We ask that you check and prepare the route the driver will take to your property entrance, ensuring it is safe and unrestricted in terms of access to your room of choice. This ensures we can carry out the delivery quickly and safely. Please note, in-home deliveries are to ground floor only, our drivers are unable to carry goods upstairs.

Whilst our drivers will always take care at your property, we kindly ask that any carpets or flooring that will be on the driver's path during the delivery of your items are sufficiently protected. We would also ask that you remove any fragile items such as ornaments and pictures to prevent any unnecessary accidental damage - this ensures a smooth delivery for all.

  • Inspect Before Fitting - Thoroughly inspect your products within your 15 minute delivery window for any defects or damage before unpacking and fitting. Installed or altered products cannot be returned.

How do I return an item?

We allow a 14-day cooling off period in which you can notify us of your intention to return the item(s), and a further 14-days from this point to send the items back to us. Your refund will be sent to the same payment method that you used to place the order. Under the Consumer Rights Act you have a legal right to reject goods that are of unsatisfactory quality, unfit for purpose or not as described, and get a full refund or an exchange - as long as you do this quickly. This right is limited to 30 days from the date you receive your product. Bespoke items such as made to measure doors can only be returned unless they are faulty or damaged upon delivery.
