Door and Drawer Styles There are three basic door and drawer styles to choose from including overlay, flush inset, or beaded inset.
An overlay door and drawer style typically covers the face frame from 1/4” to 1 5/8”. This cabinet style is the most common and exhibits a pronounced appearance with enhanced detail to the door and drawer panels.
A flush inset door and drawer style is one in which the cabinet door and drawer is inset within the rail and stile. This cabinet style exhibits a “flush” appearance within the cabinet face frame.
A beaded inset door and drawer style is similar to a flush inset door but an additional molding is placed within the face frame. This cabinet style also produces a flush appearance and is a slightly more intricate.
