Morning all

was going to us CLS Timber 89mm x 38mm) 26.16 for stud work,
12.5mm plaster board
then skim for plaster

I am right in thinking
Internal Door Lining for 762 & 838mm Doors 27.5 x 108mm x 2.01m

89mm + 12.5mm+ 6mm approx. skim? = 107.5 approx., so the 108mm doorframe should be good?

Cheers

6mm skim is a bit rthick. More like 3mm
Surely you'regoing to board and skim both sides so you'd need 89+30 which is 119mm
I've found door linings are often a pain and I've ended up getting a bigger one and ripping it down with a circular saw and then planing it. Not sure what the pros do though.

Very valid point, forgot the 2nd side o_O .. ill got make another cup of coffee!

Cheers for the pointers, they are cheap enough so if I have the same issue I maybe doing the same with a plane!

Id pfefer 95mm x 45mm for studwork.

38mm is pretty thin to join plasterboard onto.

But yes 3mm skim is enough.

Only plasterboard 1 side? -is it a garage.

What is wrong with the usual ex 75 x 50mm studding at 600mm centres for non loadbearing internal partitions :?: (with sound insulating quilt between studs )
