Architrave Options

[Cha0s]

Need some advice on where to fit architrave on a couple of different doors.

Door 1 - in the hall
only enough room for the top piece of architrave. any other options?

Door 2 - i have a couple of possible options here.
a) add in a fillet of some kind to make it appear as if the frame/liner is the full width of the wall and fit the architrave on the red area.
b) just fit the architrave on the red area.

Door 3 - same deal as above, fill in wall with fillet or just fit architrave with no fillet.

Hope someone can help.
thanks in advance.

If the side areas are wide enough you can cut down the architrave so it looks like it disappears into the wall. Gotta get it flush though, so spend time filling the cracks or it will look crap. If the gap is unreasonably narrow then it is usual to use some thin beading up the sides instead; something vaguely in keeping with the architrave across the top. Again, gaps need to be filled.

b) just fit the architrave on the red area.

Either of the above, or option c) leave it. Doorways like this often have no architrave on the 'unlined' side, just the plaster finish.

Cheers.
Yes I was all for option C but I'm being asked to fit architrave.
I think if its really required ill push for B. I dont want to faff with slivers of pine and filler etc.

If the whole house hadnt already been refurbed I may have gone for pulling out the narrow (standard) liners and fitting wider ones.

I think ill go with your suggestion in the hall and fit a beading of some sort.

It just occurred to me that skirting will also be a problem as the liner has been plastered up to, meaning any skirting will likely interfere with the door.
