vishusingh Posted October 4 Posted October 4 Hey folks … im probably overthinking this…. I’ve a non load bearing wall with a door on a 1969 extension were moved away from knocking the wall down to build a timber frame and house the door and windows in a more traditional way to the standard window door window ie flag door flag question is- when the door is removed from the existing space, I need to knock out about another 600mm of wall to the right and then be able to seat the door and windows together so how do I finish the area above? It’s about 9” and I’m just wondering if I somehow make a simple wooden frame with a 9” double header to hold the section cross joints above…
DannyT Posted Wednesday at 19:54 Posted Wednesday at 19:54 You could just box in above the door, insulate and membrane but you will have to clad the exterior for weather protection. on the other hand a 9 inch “T” lintel with brickwork to match on exterior. Depends how much you want to put into it.
