What Is a Split Jamb Door Frame and Why Do Architects Prefer It

A split jamb door frame is an architrave-free door jamb system that wraps the plasterboard to create a flush finish with the wall face. It eliminates traditional architraves and conceals all fixings. INVI Concept manufactures the INVI Jamb® — a world-renowned flush finish door jamb system available across four profiles to suit different door configurations.

Both the INVI Jamb® EZC and SRC are flush, architrave-free door jamb systems that wrap the plasterboard for a clean finish. The EZC is a two-piece adjustable split jamb suited to projects with varying wall thicknesses. The SRC is a one-piece jamb made custom to your wall thickness, rebated on one side to allow the door to sit flush with the hinge side of the wall.

What Is a Split Jamb Door Frame and Why Do Architects Prefer It?

A split jamb door frame is an architrave-free door jamb system. It wraps the plasterboard during framing to conceal fixings and incorporate the door into the wall face, creating a flush finish with no visible surrounds.

Architects, interior designers, and developers specify split jamb frames to achieve contemporary flush-finished spaces. Key reasons include:

  • Flush finish. No architraves means no visual interruption to the wall surface.
  • Concealed fixings. The frame wraps the plasterboard to hide all fixings.
  • Paint-ready. All INVI Jamb® profiles can be painted immediately after installation.
  • Fire rated. Fire rating is available on select profiles — speak with the INVI Concept technical team to confirm parameters.

Section summary: A split jamb wraps the plasterboard to deliver a flush, architrave-free finish — the preferred choice for contemporary residential and commercial interiors.
