Make a div bigger than wrapper

Is it possible to have a wrapper that have a width of 1000px; but on the same time i want a DIV inside that DIV, to be 100% width

Is that possible by any chance.

My code is something like this

<div class="block1">
    <img src="images/page1-img2.jpg" alt="" class="img-radius">
    <div class="border-1">
        <p class="color-1">Security Systems for Office</p>
        <p>Facer possim assum. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod.</p>
        <a href="#" class="button top-1">Read More</a>
    </div>
</div>

Around this i want another div, that is width:100% even that my wrapper is only 1000px;

It's possible - assuming no parent elements are positioned non-statically - but you'll have to position the inner div absolutely:

#inner {
    position: absolute;
    height: 150px;
    
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    
    background: blue;
}
#wrap {
    width: 300px;
    height: 300px;
    
    margin-left: 50px;
    
    background: red;
}
<div id="wrap"><div id="inner"></div></div>

It's worth noting that I would generally try and avoid situations like this unless you really have to because it's kinda counter-intuitive.
