To add face frames to your cabinet Project, go to the "Construction" section of the left-hand toolbar in the Design Tab. From here Frameless/ Face Frame can be selected from the drop-down.
Selecting face frames adds options to control the rail and stile widths independently. The Material section also contains options to control face frame material and thickness.
The cabinet box depth is inclusive of the face frame thickness, the side panel depths are automatically adjusted.
There aren’t options to control the overhang or general position of rails and stiles. The top rail and left/right stiles are aligned with the outside edges of the box panels. The bottom rail is aligned with the inside edge of the bottom box panel, creating an overhang and avoiding a lip.
Base cabinets are also adjusted so the toe kick clearance matches the desired height, accounting for any bottom rail overhang.
Face frames can also be enabled with inset style fronts. However, this configuration doesn’t have integrated hardware support yet. Door hinges and drawer slide milling will be automatically disabled.
The manufacturing tab allows you to create a face frame specific cut list for your linear lumber.
This generates a basic cut list of lengths and quantities.
The Estimates tab we also be updated to include face frames, accounted for in terms of linear board feet.
