Is it better to tack architrave to the door/window casing or drill
and plug the sorrounding wall?

Tack it to the door frame. If it's narrow, it will only *just* overlap the
brick/plaster - so there's no scope for fixing to that.


Most architrave is 2-3" wide. Gripfil gives you time to line up the
mitres properly. I can't see that any other fixing is required
