The ShadowLinE detail has been around for a while now (also known as Negative detail) and it adds a modern finish to door jamb liners. The timber jambs are manufactured so as to aid the builder in finishing the jamb detail with a small 10 x 10mm rebate around the jamb liners.

This popular detail is made easy with this unit. Please note: it important to ask specifically for this product at the time of order.

These units are supplied as fully assembled units with or without a door fitted and are available in single and bi-parting double units with a range of options as detailed below.

Design Features & Options 

• The jambs are supplied with a reduced face width so that the jamb width matches the finished wall thickness.
• If timber jambs are used then the jamb can be supplied with a 20 – 30mm return. Gib wall linings are run up to within 10 – 13mm of this return to create a negative detail. If required a ‘Z’ mould can be used
• If aluminium jambs are used then 2 layers of gib are required to create the detail. The first acts as a packer (13mm) and the second creates the detail. This option also comes with a small extrusion for a neat detailed finish.
