Wall closure - Empty doors & windows

Thinus

Good day 

Working with cavity walls and placing windows & doors it's easy to have cavity skins return at the openings, but is there a way to have any sort of closure when you use empty doors/windows or even the opening tool? How can I close these openings please?

Thank you very much - I didn't realize that it's different to use an empty door/window opening rather that changing a door or window to "use as empty opening". This works great and I appreciate your time and advice.
