SELECTING AND INSTALLING OUR CUSTOM MOULDING AND TRIM

Our new pole barn home may be pretty simple by design, but I plan on making it really special with the interior details – starting with the moulding and trim.

I’d like to share what we’ve used so far for our door and window casings, baseboards and wall trim, to give you some ideas and a place to start if you are building or remodeling your own home.

1

Kevin nailed in a 1 x 6 piece of MDF.

2

He stacked on top of the MDF a 3 1/4 inch piece of baseboard trim.

3

At the bottom he nailed in a piece of 1 3/8 inch STOP trim.

4

He started with the bottom inside casing, which is a piece of 1 x 8  MDF, notched out to extend past the window.

5

He installed the remainder of the inside window casing pieces on the sides and top with a 1 x 6 MDF board.

6

To wrap the outside of the window, he used a piece of 3 5/8 door and window casing, which is made out of primed fiberboard.
