There are two different styles to consider if you're ready to outfit your kitchen or bathroom with new cabinets. Framed cabinets are an American style of cabinet construction. As the name implies, the cabinet is built with a frame around it and adds more stability. Frameless cabinetry is also called "full-access" and is European built. Despite its origin overseas, frameless cabinetry is a popular choice in the United States.
The type of style you choose also depends on your personal preferences and not just aesthetics. The hallmarks of frameless cabinets are sleek, smooth, and contemporary without the frame in the front. The hinge of a framed option attaches to the frame itself, while the frameless cabinetry hinges to the side of the cabinet box.
There are also different types of drawers and door fronts that can be added to your cabinetry: Partial and full overlay. A framed box can also include an inset style for your cabinetry. Choose a drawer and door that creates an inset into the cabinet's frame for a flush, sleek look. Inset is also a trending choice for homeowners looking to give their kitchen a stylish refresh.
