Door Overlays
Choose the look that suits your style !
Overlay refers to the amount of front frame covered by a door or drawer face.
The two common descriptions are full-overlay and partial-overlay. The most noticeable difference between the full-overlay and partial-overlay is the affect on the visibility of the cabinet frame. By choosing full overlay, many kitchen designers create a modern appearance that gives cabinets a seamless appearance. Partial overlay doors and drawers will create consistent spacing across the entire face of the cabinet. This style is named for the fact that the doors and drawers will equally overlap the frame on all edges around the opening.

Our dedicated employees and experienced woodworkers handcraft each cabinet with careful attention to detail and craftsmanship. Each door and drawer begins with a thoughtful selection of raw material.
Inset - Flush Style
Inset doors and drawers form a flush surface with the front face of a cabinet when they are fully closed. Before considering the inset cabinetry style, it is important to expect to pay more. Many may ask if it is worth the money, but that kind of value is a personal assessment. Simply put, it is a very stunning look that gives your cabinetry a sense of high quality craftsmanship.
Many choose to pursue the inset style with painted cabinets, but wood stains and glazing options are also in demand. Hinge styles can include a fully invisible option that creates a intriguingly smooth finish to the cabinetry. Hinges may also have an exposed barrel style which is visible. Note that the precision required for inset cabinetry takes longer to produce, but the final product is well worth the wait.
Full Overlay - Our best selling style
A full overlay is the style of cabinet door and drawer that covers the cabinet’s entire face frame. This ensures minimal gaps so that only a very small portion of the cabinet’s storage area is seen. This type of door or drawer front leaves very little gaps between the adjacent openings so that only a small portion of the cabinet box is visible. Doors and drawer faces rest completely on the cabinet frame when closed, and does not interfere with the interior space of the cabinet.
Partial Overlay - Traditional Style
Partial overlay is the style of cabinet door and drawer that refers to the amount of frame visible on a cabinetry face. The spacing between the doors and drawer fronts of the cabinet run are the most visible and defining detail. The most recognizable characteristic of a partial-overlay cabinet style is that there is a consistent strip of the frame visible across the entire face of the cabinets.
The doors and drawers of a partial overlay cabinet will overlap the frame evenly around the opening of each cabinet. This type of cabinetry design is the most traditional and is also typically the most affordable.
