Size of quadrant to use with skirting and archi

[chriselevate]

I have skirting and architrave fitted in a couple of rooms where quandrant will be needed on one side of the door instead of architrave (due to space and stop the plaster / casing cracking).

• The skirting is 19 x 100mm
• The Architrave is 19 x 75mm

What size quandrant would work best with these sizes please?

They do....

• 12 x 12mm
• 16 x 16mm
• 18 x 18mm
• 21 x 21mm

All sizes are unfinished sizes.

Thanks

I would use the largest that will fit.

Not sure I understand you? Fits in the gap or fits against the archi/skirting?

What goes on first when you’ve got a quadrant and skirting board meeting? Does the skirting sit against the quadrant or vice versus etc?

Thanks

The skirting dimensions will dictate size as quad has to sit on top without overhanging .

So with this skirting....

• The skirting is 19 x 100mm

The finished size will be 15mm I think.

Which quadrant would be the one to use? 12, 16, 18, 21mm?

Thanks
