Need to increase door height in bungalow

Home Improvement Asked by user122654 on January 10, 2021

I am in aenter image description here bungalow with the doors into the bathroom and 2 bedrooms all being different height. I’d like to increase the door height and shifting the header up seemed like a simple thing. however…this is what i found and i am not sure how to proceed… i was not expecting a double header. then again i know nothing about this. any thoughts are appreciated. not sure about load bearing

One Answer

That's not a header, just a nailer. Some carpenters / builders like to use two so that the trim is easier to nail and looks better. You're fine removing one of them. Leave at least one though to nail the trim to after your done (moved or not)
