What are the different types of cabinets? Cabinetry creates unique interior design styles for kitchens
and bathrooms. Cabinet details provide simplicity, utility, and even luxury to your space. Today we
review door styles, frame styles, and cabinet customization. Can you imagine any of these cabinets in
your home?
Overlay Door
In front of the cabinet frame, an overlay door closes. This kind of cabinetry generally has concealed
hinges. The doors on overlay cabinets make them look more modern, and they also serve to conceal
cabinet seams. Here you may view all of our door designs.
Inset door
Doors with an inset close flat against the cabinet frame. Hinges can be shown or concealed. Inset
cabinets provide a sophisticated appearance, but the door hardware may need to be adjusted to line up
properly. On inset cabinets, any cabinet seams will be more obvious.
Shaker Cabinets
Shaker is a flat-paneled, straight-lined cabinet door design. Shaker-style doors can be used with inset or
overlay cabinets. Shaker doors have a substantial wood frame that gives them a sturdy, yet
straightforward, appearance.
Raised Panel Cabinets
Raised Panel doors are just doors with a raised panel in the center that is enclosed in a frame. The panel
may taper or even come to a point on the sides. Although this style tends to have a more classic vibe, it
may have a highly contemporary feel by changing the panel and frame sizes.
Slab Cabinets
A panel door is a flat wooden panel without a frame. The top can be solid wood, laminated wood or a
synthetic material such as his MDF for lacquered cabinets. Some cabinet styles combine panels for small
drawers with framed panels for doors and large drawers. Panel doors are often used in modern closets,
but when paired with panel doors, they give a more traditional look.
Custom Cabinets
Custom cabinetry is designed and built for your unique space. Shapes, sizes, door styles and finishes can
all be customized to create an inspired space. Cabinet door fronts can be used as appliance panels or
brackets, and legs can be added to complete the furniture look. A bespoke kitchen island can be built as
a free-standing single piece rather than individual cabinets with seams. This high-end look comes at a
price. Custom cabinets typically cost three times as much as off-the-shelf he. See custom cabinets here.
Ready-made Cabinets
Budget-friendly ready-made cabinets are available in standard sizes and colors. Using fillers and
moldings, these can be customized and integrated to fit your space. An experienced interior designer
can create a beautiful and unique kitchen with prefabricated her cabinets, but there are some
limitations to what is offered.
