Hi,
Whilst striping back the paint and architrave from our door linings, interior, I have revealed a gap between the wood lining and wall above. The wall has a steel plate/beam that I guess once sat on the lining.
The lining the level and frame pretty square. If I moved the lining to sit flush with the steel the door would be very out of alignment indeed! So much so that the door would not be able to be planed to sit true with the top of the frame (the gap is an inch at max).
So, Can I fill this gap safely? Do I have to? The architrave will cover it without problem. If filling it is a better solution, what with? Muck Wood?
Thanks!
