    Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum and looking forward to getting and hopefully giving advice.
    I would like to know what profile this architrave is please: And also where I can get it from in mdf pre finished. It's approximately 69mm wide.Thanks in advance. image.jpeg

    It looks like an ogee version. Ogee is quite a common pattern. Hoever, even when going down a timber merchant there may be slight differences in the profile due to them coming from different suppliers or different cutters.

    Thank you for your help. There seems to be so many variations it will be difficult to get an exact match I guess. Thanks again.

    Are you replacing the entire architrave ?

    I'm replacing the architrave around one door so I will have to remove it and fly down to the timber yard with a sample. I doubt I will get an exact match but something close will do I suppose.
