Transition from traditional baseboard to door casing?!

[Danosbananos]

No, not at all like you have done. The way I suggested is to cut off the end at 90 degrees and then just take a small 45-degree bevel off the protruding corner. In the opposite direction to your 45-degree miter.

I understand now. There's a photo further down in the thread. Thanks! ✌️

Thank you for the great help. That will probably suit us better, not as massive. Don't you think I should go with the same allmoge molding but different dimensions?

If you do such an end, I think the transition to the door trim will be less noticeable. I'll look for pictures of my transition in the cabin to the door trim with timber paneling, it actually turned out really well. I spent a whole weekend with homemade skurklossar and everything until I just beveled off (and did the same end as in my previous picture), and the finish became very natural.

Not on what Danosbananos refers to. He/she means you should "thin out" the base at the end by planing at a 45-degree angle.

Yep, I understand now after seeing the picture.

In our house from 1891, it looks like that; the rooms being renovated are restored with newly manufactured moldings, casings, and corner blocks.
Same profiles and dimensions.
Personally, I think it gets a bit cluttered if the corner block is too low.
But taste is, as they say, highly personal; at that time, every builder had their own standards.

Exactly so. Our corner blocks are considerably lower than what @A.Barman has, but we did the same. We looked at what was in the most untouched areas and ordered the same from the planing mill.

If you don't have a template yourself, you have to go with what you think fits and preferably also what suits the house in question. For example, we consciously choose a slightly "simpler" design for some things. Even though the farm was fairly well-off when it happened over a hundred years ago, it was still not a manor.
