Chamberlain Timber Mart, the premier local home improvement store serving the Gravenhurst-Muskoka, Ontario region. When selecting door trim, consider both the width of the casing and the material, as these factors significantly impact the visual weight of a room.

Door trim and accessories are the essential finishing touches that bridge the gap between your door frame and the wall. More than just decorative accents, these components provide a clean, polished look while hiding structural gaps. Whether you are performing a simple room refresh or a full home renovation,
chamberlaintimbermart.ca is your one-stop shop for professional-grade materials in Muskoka.
What are the parts of door trim? The primary component is the casing, which frames the door opening. Other parts include the head casing (the top horizontal piece), side casings (the vertical pieces), and sometimes a plinth block at the base for a more ornate transition to the floor baseboards.
What are the types of door trim? Door trim comes in various styles and materials to suit any aesthetic:
- MDF trim: Cost-effective and smooth, perfect for painted finishes.
- Solid wood trim: Offers natural beauty and durability, ideal for staining.
- Primed finger-jointed pine: A versatile option that provides the feel of wood with a ready-to-paint surface.
- Craftsman or shaker style: Features flat, square edges for a clean, minimalist look.
- Colonial or victorian style: Features intricate curves and layers for a classic, upscale feel.
How do I choose the right size? Generally, door trim should be proportionate to your ceiling height. For a standard 8-ft ceiling, a 2-1/4-in to 3-in casing is common. For taller 10-ft ceilings, you may want to scale up to a 4-in or 5-in casing to maintain visual balance. If you are unsure, visit our local building supplies counter for expert advice.
Can I install door trim myself? Yes, with the right tools - such as a miter saw, level, and nail gun - installing door trim is a manageable DIY project. We recommend measuring twice and cutting once to ensure tight, professional miter joints. Ready to get started?
