frame
The frame is the side framing component of a spatial object.
Word origin
The word 'Zarge' goes back to Old High German zarga f., Seitenwand, Rand 'and is related to Old English targe f. / targa m. 'Small shield , round shield', old Norse targa f. 'Round shield', from which a primitive Germanic basic meaning 'edge' → 'side border', 'frame' results. The word is perhaps related to the ancient Greek δράσσεσθαι drássesthai ' to grasp'.
In cooperage , the word 'Zarge' (or 'Gargel') describes the groove in which the base is worked. It can be assumed that the term initially referred to wooden connections that allow right-angled joining (corner connections, such as groove and insert, burr and the like), and then carried over to the side parts built in with them.
Door and window frames
The following information applies accordingly to window frames (window frame ) .
The door frame , and the door sash and general language door frame called, is the stationary part of the door , in which the movable part of the door extending door leaf or the door leaf is located. The door frame is primarily used to stop the door leaf, i.e. for fastening and as a form-fitting counterpart to the actual door. Block, corner and surrounding frames also cover the reveal of the wall opening. A threshold is often found as a sealing, stiffening or covering element on the lower part of the frame.
The door frame is mostly used to hold the door hinges ( hinges ). Their position on the frame depends on the opening direction of the door . Usually - with the exception of double-leaf doors - the strike plate for the lock latch is also mounted on the door frame on the side opposite the door hinge.
Door frames are usually made of
- Wood or wood-based materials ,
- Steel ( steel frame ) or
- Aluminum .
A distinction is made in terms of construction:
-

- Corner frame , includes the wall opening only on one side and the part of the reveal facing it , usually made of steel or aluminum
- Rohrrahmenzarge (steel, plastic or aluminum), usually as a block frame adapted
-
Setting , regional also Stockzarge or door frame , called a door frame with a compact, one-piece cross section which is further differentiated depending on the installation position in which:
- Block frame , which is mounted in the door reveal and fills it over its entire width, the
- Stick frame, which is also mounted in the door reveal, but is not as wide as this one, and the
- Outer frame frame , which is mounted in front of the wall opening or in front of a wall stop and blinds it , i.e. conceals it .
The side panels of traditional lining frames sit on the wall surface. In modern architecture, frames that are flush with the wall are also used, which are connected to the wall with an elastic joint compound or a U-profile that forms a shadow gap. For installation with the same surface, block frames or narrow surrounding frames are used, which sit over a previously assembled block frame.
