No king studs? No jack studs? What is this Revolutionary framing? But looks good for now. As long as atmosphere is consistent down there should hold. Let us know next season how bad the jamb warped.

    It's a non load bearing interior wall.

    What's with all of the people thinking this is unsafe? They act like the pre-existing arch wasn't already there and that you're not just adding a decorative, non-load bearing wall with a door....

    Yeah, I don't know. Maybe it looks flimsier in the pictures than it actually is in person.

    I take pride in my work - if I didn't think it was solid enough, I'd have done it differently. The customer didn't ask for something that could withstand a battering ram.
