Frames & Jambs

What Is Jamb Extension?

A piece added to a door jamb so the jamb matches a wall that is deeper than the standard jamb size.

A jamb extension adds width to a door jamb so the finished jamb can accommodate a wall that is deeper than the base jamb dimension. Extensions are common when wall construction, drywall, paneling, or trim increases the finished wall thickness.

Buying Considerations

Measure the finished wall thickness and identify whether the supplier provides a single custom jamb width or a standard jamb with an extension. Account for wall finishes when measuring.
