Can the lintel of the indoor door be raised?

Whether the indoor door can be raised depends on different situations. If the lintel above the doorway is a load-bearing lintel, then heightening the door will affect the safety of the house. In this case, it is not recommended to raise the indoor door. If there is a door head beam above the doorway, and the strength is different from that of the frame beam, the indoor door can be raised, but the firmness of the masonry above the doorway should be ensured, and the lintel of the doorway should be increased to increase the support.

When considering the problem of heightening indoor doors, we also need to consider the provisions of property and architectural design. If the property does not allow or the architectural design does not allow, the indoor door may not be raised.

Generally speaking, many factors need to be considered comprehensively, including the type of lintel, the safety of the house, the property and architectural design. It is recommended to consult a professional before deciding to raise the indoor door.
