A post (from French leg, “leg”)[1], is in architecture the side post or lining of a door or other opening. The mullions of a window outside the frame are called “revelations.” Small wells on doors and windows with caps and skirting boards are called “post trees”; When they are inside the post of a window, they are sometimes called “scoinsons”. Pole – The pole is the part of a door that you have often called a “frame” around the hole in the wall of a door. But “officially” doesn`t refer to the part of the door that opens above your head. It refers only to pages. The two vertical rooms (usually wooden if it is in a house) on either side of the opening are the door jambs. The “b” is silent.

[3] Once I set things up, I marked where the hinges met the post. Here`s a stupid way to remember that word. Think of the pole as “stuck” between the door and the wall. Other places where you can find a pole would be window frames or chimneys.
But these uses of the word are unusual. The wall switch for electric lighting in the lower hall of the seat was – as I knew – right next to the outside door jamb. Since it clearly shows what jambs and soffits are, let`s look at the definitions. Her boyfriend leaned against the doorjamb as laughter after laughter shook her.

Jamb-it is the member of both sides of the opening or you can tell the vertical elements of the door and window opening.
