I have a 2 bed Victorian terrace, with the floor plan below
I had an arched doorway going from the dining room into the kitchen. I started to remove this to square it back off, and found a wooden lintel that’s barely resting on anything
I’m thinking of now opening this up further like this
My question is, would a 100mm x 65mm concrete lintel suffice? It would be 1800mm in length and have 200mm extended beyond the opening either side.
Something along the lines of this? - https://www.diy.com/departments/expamet-concrete-lintel-l-1800mm-w-100mm/150792_BQ.prd
