Cabinet Styles
Face Frame
Face Frame cabinets incorporate a wood “frame” around the front of the outer edge of the cabinet box.
They are considered more traditional and offer some style variation based on the amount of door overlay, which is the extent the door covers or “lays-over” the face frame.
- Full-overlay – Door and drawers completely “fully” cover the face frame
- Partial-overlay – Door and drawers cover only “part” of the frame
- Full-inset – Doors and drawers are made to fit within “inside” the face frame opening
Full Access
Full Access cabinets also referred to as “frameless” they offer a bit more accessibility than framed cabinets. This is because in the construction there is no inside edge of a frame that’s partially blocking the perimeter of the cabinet opening.
Described as a “European” or “Contemporary” style of cabinet, the doors are typically full-overlay (covering the entire front of the cabinet box) though some can be made as full-inset.
