What
are Face Frame style cabinets? Face Frame
style cabinetry is a stronger way of building cabinets. This type
of cabinet has a more traditional American look. It is a sturdy
type of cabinet and has space between the doors and drawers which
allows room for finger pull edges on the doors and drawer. Therefore,
handles or knobs are not necessary.
What
are Frameless or European style cabinets? Frameless
or 32
MM is a European or Contemporary
Style of cabinetry. All that is seen are the doors and drawers
- giving the cabinets a clean, sleek look.. There is no room for
finger pulls on the doors so these cabinets require knobs or handles.
If you are going to have Thermafoil or Deco-Form doors, this style
is very popular because there is no frame to paint or stain.
What
are appliance panels? Appliance panels are
basically doors that slide on to your appliance (refrigerator,
dishwasher or trash compactor) Your appliance must be made to
accept appliance panels (see appliance cut out sheet).
What
are standard, routed or five-piece drawer fronts? You
can have your drawer fronts any style you choose. Standard is
a plain-flat drawer front. Routed means there will be a routed
design to match your door style. Five-piece drawer fronts require
5 pieces to make the drawer front and it will look like your door.

Doors.
What
are Doors cut for Glass and French Lite Doors? Most
of our doors can have the center panel cut out making it ready
for you to put glass into it! A french lite door is a door with
the center cut out and mullions are put in to divide the door
in sections.
Who
supplies the Glass? You,
the owner, supply all glass. Just take your finished doors to
any glass shop and they will cut and install the glass into the
doors.

What
is an air gap and basket strainer? See
appliance page.
Why
do I need an air gap? Air
gaps are required by most codes for dishwashers and for water
softeners. They are needed to prevent any possible cross-connection
between your potable water system and your sewage system. Without
an air gap, there is always a chance (however slim) of siphoning
contaminants from your sewage system into your drinking water
system.
How
long do I have to seal my cabinets?: Your
cabinets need to be sealed within three (3) days of installation.
In areas of high moisture such as beach areas, in wet weather
or if you are having trade work done such as tiling, drywall or
concrete, it is imperative that the cabinets be sealed right away.

do I maintain the beauty of my cabinets?: Please
