Cabinet Door Types
Photo
The first picture has a Face Frame consisting of rails ( the horizontals) and stiles (the vertical ). The second image is a frameless cabinet. Full overlay doors have less than 1/8" between them—in effect, they fully lay over the cabinet. By definition, all frameless cabinets have full overlay doors. Partial overlay doors conceal just some of the face frame—there is usually a ½" to 1" space between closed doors, allowing you to see much of the face frame. Inset doors sit within the rails and stiles and lay flush with the front edges of the cabinet box.
