Typical Cabinet Face Frame Dimensions

I do not use edge tape because i believe it is strictly cheap junk.

Typical cabinet face frame dimensions.

The basic structure of shaker cabinets is no different than any other cabinet using hardwood face frames which is almost always 3 4 inch thick. The bottom rail is almost always 1 1 4 to 1 1 2 inches in width. Submit a drawing with the following information to receive your quote. Individual face frame rails vary in width from the top of the cabinet to the bottom.

Typical vertical stiles for face frames are all 3 inches wide. All solid face frame edging 3 4 thick mortise tenon joinery even on the 3 4 wide face frames. Your front face frame price will be calculated based on option selections and size. For the overlay doors i have been making all perimeter rails and stiles 1 3 4 inches and all middle stile and rails at 2 1 4 inches so i end up with 1 1 4 inch of all of the stiles and rails exposed with my 1 2 inch overlay doors.

Center or divider rails typically measure 2. Question in the past i have been building exclusively overlay face frame cabinets but lately i have been getting some inset door jobs. I might use a 1 1 2 stile where the cabinet butts up to the wall then 3 4 stiles where i have a single vertical stile in the center of a cabinet and perhaps 1 or 1 1 4 rails.
