Türdurchlass

Türdurchlass refers to the opening within a wall that allows passage through a doorway. It is the space created by removing a portion of the wall to accommodate a door. This passage is a fundamental architectural element designed for access, egress, and the separation of interior spaces. The dimensions of a Türdurchlass are determined by the size of the door it is intended to hold, as well as building codes and functional requirements, such as allowing passage for people and furniture. The structure surrounding the Türdurchlass, including the jambs and header, provides support and frames the door. Variations exist based on building type, historical period, and aesthetic considerations. For instance, a residential Türdurchlass might differ in size and style from one found in a commercial building or a historical monument. The concept of Türdurchlass is central to the design and usability of any built environment.
