Door Header & Door Crosshead FAQs
A door header is a structural beam or component that sits above a doorway, transferring the weight above to the supporting walls on either side of the doors. Door headers are used to support the structural integrity of the building and are absolutely essential.
A door crosshead is similar to a header, but they don't necessarily support any weight and are primary used for aesthetic purposes.
Typically, a door crosshead is to add an architectural detail above doors, enhancing the look and feel of the doorway, they could even be added to hide the door header. A door header is for structural purposes, supporting the weight from above.
Many people now refer to door headers and crossheads as the same thing, then specify exactly what they are after. For instance, someone may ask for a door header trim, door header framing or a header molding when they're actually looking for a decorative crosshead, on the other hand, someone may be searching for a structural door crosshead, when they're really looking for a header.
Depending on the shape and size of your window, it might be possible, but we instead insist that you consider purchasing from our specific Window Header range.
