That upper arch could use a little more reinforcing but for a basement partition, it should be fine.

I'm not sure what you mean. The "arch" is attatched to brick with 14 long screws.

I mean that the top of the door could be more secured to that part. Personally id put 2 more vertical portions there, but like I said, for what/where it is, is probably plenty of support.

There's one vertical piece on the centre that's holding the air duct. It just doesn't show in the pictures.
