The top and sides have the usual reveal, but we have no bottom reveal at all. Please ignore the pencil marks on the architrave, that was a scrap piece of arch just put there temporarily for the pic. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Thanks d13, if V43 chooses a plaster reveal, there will not be an architrave. If they let you choose plaster to the jambs and head with no bottom reveal, I think that would look good. Ed Thanks delatite13 and Ed, thats awesomely helpful. Makes a lot more sense now. I guess I am going to have no bottom reveal but with the sides and top I am going to have plaster reveal as a standard. Need to double check. Re: window - plaster reveal? 10Jul 15, 2013 5:57 pm No worries Ed and Vetra 43, glad to help ed @ ecoclassic Thanks d13, if V43 chooses a plaster reveal, there will not be an architrave.

How do you actually secure the window in place, given that our windows are secured with nails through the wooden reveal and into the house frame?.

How do you actually secure the window in place, given that our windows are secured with nails through the wooden reveal and into the house frame?. Depends on the window. Our residential window has timber reveals and we use a thinner reveal with plaster in front. Our commercial window has an aluminium section behind the plaster. Drop into the showroom and we can show you. There's also a "che@t" by using plasterers' angle over the timber reveal, but it reduces the energy efficiency.

Here is what I see as a totally separate section as "a note only" in my tender document about kitchen window reveal. Not sure what it means? "A square edged Dressed All Round (DAR) KDHW bottom architrave shall be supplied to kitchen windows that have an architrive seated on the kitchen bench, adjacent to a sink.(mine is behind a cook top, no sink there on my benchtop) Note: Client's selected architrave will be finished to the DAR section of KDHW architrave along the bottom of the window" Is that English at all? Not even a single word makes sense to me!!! Help would be highly appreciated. Re: window - plaster reveal? 13Jul 17, 2013 10:38 pm Vetra43 There you go, yet another confusion?

That's in conflict with having "no bottom reveal" as an architrave won't be needed at all on the bottom, as there will be no reveal to fasten it to. Check what you are getting...
