+An '''arch''' or '''archway''' is an [[build mode|architectural object]] in [[The Sims (series)|The Sims]] games. They have been present in all games, but were not placed in a separate sub-category until ''[[The Sims 2]]''.
-Arches must be placed on walls. Arches, like [[door]]s, allow Sims to pass through walls. In fact, many arches are simply door frames without doors in them.
+Arches function like [[door]]s, except that they do not have a panel which can be opened and closed. In effect, an arch is a door that is always open. In fact, many arches are simply door frames without the doors. This is particularly true in ''The Sims 2'', where almost all Maxis-made doors have a corresponding arch.
+Despite appearances, an arch appears to work as well as a door for separating one room from another, or separating the indoors from the outdoors.
