Consumer Information
When clients first come to us at Walker Woodworking, they are often overwhelmed by the various cabinet options available from different sources. We always strive to educate our clientele about all the choices available during their custom cabinetry selection process. There are many options within the categories of build method, paints/stains, drawer/door fronts, moldings, and hardware. This article will focus on detailing our two building method options, highlighting their differences, and describing the common styles they each lend themselves to. Regardless of the building style or look you prefer for your cabinetry, all of Walker Woodworking’s custom cabinetry will be built to the highest quality standards. You can see more about our quality here: Product Education. Keep in mind, this article will only discuss our build methods, so let’s get to it!
Frameless
The only overlay build method that Walker Woodworking offers is a frameless cabinet style. When this build method is chosen, the stiles and rail around the cabinet openings are minimized so that none of the face frame is visible. All you see when you look at the cabinetry is the front of the doors and drawer fronts. In addition to creating a streamlined, clean look, this style also maximizes the storage capacity of the cabinets, especially the drawers. This style can be paired with either an ornate or a simple door style, depending on whether you want a more transitional look or a clean-lined look. Popular design styles for this build method include: Modern, Contemporary, Industrial, European, and Transitional. As you can see in the picture above, the overlay build method showcases the door and drawer styles as the cabinet detail while helping the client get the most utility from the cabinets.
