ok, what's the carpentry term for what is known as in Sweden?
Rengöring av fasta snickerie.
Fasta snickerier såsom platsbyggda skåp, dörrar, foder och listverk ska bevaras.
This is in the context of interior design, and I don't think that "solid joinery" works here.

| Thanks Lene for your contribution. Yes, in a legal sense, "fixtures" might be used here. But insufficient however for a description from an interior designer - who of course wants to express things with more specificity. |
