Cased Opening
A set of steps used for design development
A cased opening is a rectangular opening in a wall that is trimmed with wood or other decorative materials to create a visual divide between two spaces. It is typically wider than a standard door opening and does not have a door installed.
Cased openings can be used to create an open feeling between rooms while still defining separate areas. They can also be a good way to add architectural interest to a space, especially if the trim is intricately designed.
When installing a cased opening, it is important to consider the width and height of the opening, as well as the type of trim or molding that will be used. The trim should be proportionate to the size of the opening and in keeping with the overall style of the room.
Cased openings can also be used in commercial spaces, such as retail stores or offices, to create an open concept while still maintaining some separation between areas.
