Question 1

What is the difference between a door stop moulding and a door lining?

Accepted Answer

A door lining is the full frame that surrounds the door opening and is fixed to the wall. The door stop moulding is the smaller rebated or planted strip fixed to the face of the lining that the door closes against. This 12mm x 34mm oak moulding is the stop bead itself, not the full lining.

Question 2

Can this oak door stop moulding be painted rather than stained?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The moulding arrives unfinished so it can be painted, stained, oiled or lacquered. If painting, a primer coat is recommended first to seal the grain and ensure an even topcoat. For a natural look, a clear hardwax oil or oak stain will show the grain well.

Question 3

How many lengths do I need for a standard internal door frame?

Accepted Answer

A standard internal door frame typically requires two vertical lengths and one horizontal length. Two 2400mm lengths will generally cover both verticals with minimal waste, and you can cut the head piece from the offcuts depending on door height. Always measure your specific frame before ordering.
