Cabinet Construction Styles
Choosing the right cabinet style is essential for achieving the look and function you envision. At Lakeview Wood Products, we offer a variety of construction options to suit every taste and space. Here’s a look at three of the most popular cabinet styles:
Frameless Full Overlay
Also known as European-style cabinetry, frameless cabinets have no face frame on the front of the cabinet box. Instead, doors and drawer fronts are attached directly to the cabinet sides and fully cover the front edges of the box.
Features:
Clean, modern appearance with minimal gaps between doors and drawers
Maximizes interior storage space
Sleek lines perfect for contemporary designs
Framed Overlay
Framed overlay cabinets feature a solid wood face frame attached to the front of the cabinet box. The doors and drawer fronts overlay the frame, partially covering it but still revealing some of the frame around each opening.
Features:
Traditional look with visible frame edges
Added strength and durability from the face frame construction
Available in standard overlay (more frame visible) or full overlay (less frame visible)
Framed Inset
Framed inset cabinetry offers a classic, furniture-quality appearance. Like framed overlay, these cabinets have a face frame, but the doors and drawers are set flush inside the frame opening, creating a smooth, precise fit.
Features:
Timeless, elegant style with clean reveals around each door and drawer
Requires expert craftsmanship for consistent gaps and alignment
Often chosen for high-end, traditional, or transitional spaces
