STUDENT NAME: ________________________________________BLOCK # ______________ DATE __________ 1. Trim Trim is priced and sold by the linear foot. Base trim is commonly 3-1/4" wide, and door and window trim is 2-1/4" wide, but other widths are available. Base trim is equal to the perimeter of the room minus the width of the doors. Door and window trim is commonly called casing. When trim is installed, angled cuts called miters are made at the corners of doors and windows; therefore, the trim will need to be longer. Door trim is not installed along the bottom, so there are three pieces – two sides and one top. Each side trim is equal to the height of the door plus the width of the casing. The top piece is equal to the width of the door plus two times the width of the casing. The top and bottom casing for a window would be the width of the window plus two times the width of the trim. The side casing would be the height of the window plus two times the width of the trim. There is one 32" x 6' 8" door; one 24" x 6' 8" door; and two windows, each 24" wide x 48" tall. 1.
