Skirtings, Mouldings & Jambs
- Small details like skirting, moulding and jambs can enhance the look of your house or workspace. A skirting board creates a border where the interior wall meets the floor, moulding is a decorative trim applied to enhance a wall or corner, and a door jamb forms a door frame’s interior edge, with the strike plate and mounting hinges on each side.

Wood skirting
Wooden skirting is a common traditional interior design choice and can come in a range of colours, designs, dimensions and finishes. Certain woods can be chosen to complement timber floors or timber walls.
Pencil round skirting
Pencil round skirting has a rounded edge at the top, making it good for homes in Australia with children who play low to the ground and whom you don’t want coming into contact with sharp edges.
Metal skirting
This skirting is usually made from aluminium or stainless steel. It provides a somewhat modern look while adding lightness to interiors.
Flush skirting
This type of skirting is flush to the wall, giving a simple and elegant appearance. It is becoming increasingly popular in modern spaces in Australia.
Design-enhancing trim
These add style and dimension to an interior with panel moulding, chair rail, or architraves. Entryways can look exceptional with this style of moulding.

Decorative trim
These are detailed designs embossed into mouldings, which add glamour and definition to a space.
The advantages of high-quality skirting, moulding and jambs
High-quality skirting will protect the wall from accidental kicks, abrasions, damage and dirt. They can also be used to cover uneven surfaces or joints. High-quality moulding can help to hide joints produced in the process of building a structure and can also provide a buffer between furniture and the wall. In Australia they are also popularly installed for aesthetic appeal. A high-quality door jamb will boost the durability of a door and offer it extra structural strength.
How to choose the skirting, moulding and jambs that are right for you
When it comes to skirting boards, you should be looking for ones that are 1/18 the height of your walls or less. Though MDF skirting boards are a low-budget option, they are the most likely to crack or chip. Vinyl skirting is one example of a good floor skirting. It protects walls from damage, hides unsightly wires and cables, provides a clean and finished look, enhances room aesthetics, and is easy to install and maintain.
Moulding should be chosen in a style and size that fits with the decor and dimensions of the room - a matter which professionals in Australia can advise. Remember, a doorway will have to be measured up before the appropriate door jamb can be chosen. Remember, a doorway will have to be measured up before the appropriate door jamb can be chosen. External door jambs enhance the aesthetic appeal of exterior doors.
In all cases, ensure that the aesthetic of the skirting, mouldings and jambs aligns harmoniously with other elements in the space, such as suspended ceilings or wallpapers, to maintain a cohesive and unified design.
