This is absolutely the best explanation of the different types of cabinet doors that I’ve ever heard! Your professional overview is really helpful. You are definitely the best at your step-by-step style of building! Thanks Shara and have a nice weekend!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it. So often I put things together and have no idea if it makes things more clear or more complicated 🙈 I appreciate you and hope you have a wonderful weekend as well! 🙌😎
Couldn’t have come at a better time, I’m getting ready to build cabinets for a camper van. All will be frameless, full overlay. One cabinet will have 2 drawers and 2 top opening cabs, with the drawers on bottom. I’ll be referencing your videos for sure ! Thanks for more great content.
I’m really excited about this series. I did a drawer building series last year and I’ve been meaning to do one for doors ever since. Hope you enjoy the next ones too. Thanks so much for watching and have a great weekend!
My wife wanted cabinets for our laundry room. I’ve never made cabinets in my life and I was terrified at first, but I watched your cabinet making videos and it gave me the confidence to try it. I’ve watched every cabinet making series out there, and I just want to say your’s is by far the best. Thank you. I couldn’t have made these cabinets without your help!
Wow. That’s a lot of information. It seems overwhelming. But right now I’m building frameless cabinets. So when I just thought of that… it made total sense. This is going to be a great resource as I build different doors. Thanks for sharing.
It is a lot of info at once…totally get it! I hope breaking it down makes it easy to reference for different situations later as needed. Good luck with your build! 🙌🔨
Haha class is in session! 🤓 just kidding! I tried teaching (electrical circuits at a local community college) once and it didn’t work out very well 😅 but I do hope this is helpful and I am actually really excited to share the next part to show several different ways to make a door with various tools (depending on what you have and/or like to use). Thanks so much for watching and I hope you have a wonderful weekend! 😎
holly molly u are the best and the only one showing and explaining how it is done for those of us who are newbies and have not experience building cabinets...u save me...i am planng to build my kitchen cabinets and i never have done that...love it!!!
You’re so kind! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. I’m really excited to share this whole series. Building cabinets is a fun project and a great learning experience! If you haven’t seen them already, I just posted videos on building cabinets you might enjoy. Happy building and have a great weekend!
Hi , yes i watched all your videos and learning from u....so this new series is a welcome addition to those videos. thank you again for sharing knowledge with us.@@WoodshopDiaries
Thanks so much! I’m building a bar in the basement and this could not have come at a better time. Have not seen anyone explain measuring doors and hinge types as well as you. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
In my old business, we would have called this "putting the cookies on the lower shelf!" What a well-articulated treatment of the topic. Well done and looking forward to more. Hey Bubs!
Haha thank you! I’ve never heard that expression before. I’m glad it was helpful. I really can’t wait to share the next part! Thanks so much for watching and Bubs says hey back at ya! 😊
Great tutorial Shara! It will be so helpful to refer back to this video whenever I want to build more cabinets. Even Bubby seemed to be trying to absorb all the information! 😂
I hope this whole series is a helpful resource 😊 I can’t wait to share the next part. Bubs was definitely interested in everything I had to say 🤣 he kept sitting on my script I had laying on the workbench ha! He’s a mess but I enjoy his company. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
This is super helpful! Currently trying to figure out how to make new doors for my existing cabinets. Determining what style the cabinets are is going to be more difficult than I thought.
Couldn't come at a better time. I am hoping to make new full overlay double doors on three connected cabinets that have face frames of different side widths. Really hoping your tutorials guide me along particularly choosing hinges.
I hope this helps! Having different size face frames can make things a little tricky but I think thinking it though and making a quick sketch can help tremendously (at least it does for me!). Good luck with your build! 🙌 For some guidance on selecting hinges, this post breaks it down: www.woodshopdiaries.com/how-to-determine-cabinet-door-size/
Awesome video Shara !!👍💯 There is a lot to unpack here :). I do remember you showing us the difference of hanging doors on cabinets with and without frames. Can't wait to see the next video :).😊 Thanks for sharing !!😀
Thanks so much! There is definitely a lot of information to fit in here 😅 I’m hoping things get a little more fun in the next video when I show several ways to make the doors. I’m pretty excited to share. I appreciate you watching and hope you have a great weekend!
Yay!! Getting ready to build kitchen cabinets. May be about 16 cabinets or so. Question? Are frameless cabinets as structurally sound as frames cabinets?
Awesome! Cabinets are a great project! The face frame doesn’t really add any extra “strength” to the cabinet. It can help hold the box square (but so does the back panel) and for really wide cabinets, it MIGHT add a little extra support to the countertop, but face frame pieces are so thin anyway, whatever it added wouldn’t really be much support if any at all. I personally prefer frameless cabinets and use them for most of my cabinet projects.
@@WoodshopDiaries Thank you for your reply and help!!! Another question? Do you have any plans available for a corner cabinet build and a farmhouse sink cabinet?
Any chance you have plans to make a corner cabinet or shelf of some sort? I'd really like to build a corner floating wall unit or two, but I don't know where to start!
Hi this is an excellent elaborated presentation. Extremely useful and informative. I have one question. On a single cabinet which there is no other cabinet next to it and it is frameless , can I exclude the 1/8 reveal? I want my door to fully cover the cabinet edges. I appreciate your input.
I love all your videos, this one is amazingly helpful. I'm going to use your guide for full overlay frameless double doors. You said to find door width as if for a single door, subtract ⅛" for gap between doors and divide in two. My question is that ⅛" gap should be subtracted or the kerf of the blade would take care of that? I hope my question makes sense. 😊😊😊 Thanks
Hi! So glad you found it helpful! I’m not sure if I fully understand your question. You’d find it as if for a single door, subtract the 1/8” gap needed between them, then divide by two. That’s the width you’d need to make each door.
@WoodshopDiaries I can't believe you found time to answer me ❤️, yeey. Ok, let's say my double doors will be 36"W, minus ¼ (⅛ for each side) = 35¾", subtract ⅛"=35 ¹⁰/¹⁶". Now, the blade of the table saw has ⅛" kerf, and that brings the total width at 35 ¹⁰/¹⁶" Is that right? I'm horrible with inches and feet, and I absolutely hate it, I miss metric system. 😔
Shara, an excellent video with excellent detail. We're in the midst of a snowstorm right now which leaves plenty of time to watch this a couple of more times before workshop gets warmed up. I've never used those "Hidden" (I guess that's the right word.) hinges before so I'm getting ready to pursue that using the Kreg jig. This is a great time for this series as I'm sure many of us are wrapping our heads around project for the upcoming year. Best regards to the critters. Hope you have a great weekend. Thanks for Sharing!
Thank you! I have to admit I’m a little jealous you’re getting snow! I’ve waited all winter hoping for one good snowstorm but it’s looking like spring is already here and the snow passed us by. Enjoy a little of that snow there for me! I feel like you’ll love concealed hinges once you give them a go. I was hesitant to try them at first but once I did, it’s hard to go back to anything else. The adjustment options make getting everything lined up so easy. Hopefully the rest of the series is helpful and I truly appreciate you watching. Bubs and Lou say hello! Have a wonderful weekend and stay warm!
Just FYI, the fact that you need 1/4" reveal on the hinge side of the door doesn't mean you need 1/4" reveal on the non-hinge side. I just built new doors for my kitchen cabinets and where 2 doors come together (2 non-hinge sides of the door) I just left a 1/8" gap between them (I made each door half the dimension of the middle divider minus 1/16") because that's the look I like. I also do this when I'm building things like sideboards. It works fine, no rubbing!
I want to make some cabinets with 3 doors(double doors and a single one) but I'm thinking to use edge banding for a nicer finish since I don't wish to paint them. Should I cut my doors less than 1/4 inch wide(and tall) than the cabinet? I want to make full overlay frameless doors. Thank you!!
The sizing would be based on how you plan to mount and divide them. There would have to be some type of divider between the doors-either one or two of them-or else the middle door has nothing to hang on.
@@WoodshopDiaries by the way, very much enjoy your approach. Quality work without over complicating. Definitely approachable for those of us just trying to create for ourselves.
I know hinges can be tricky but it’s really pretty easy to figure out which you need once you realize you just have to answer a few questions: inset or overlay? Frameless or face frame? Hopefully this helps and I can’t wait to dive into it again more in future videos 🙌
Thank you for this. There is hardly any information about how to measure so that you have even spaces all the way around your door, especially on the hinge side. My wife absolutely MUST have even spacing between everything which makes it much more complicated when putting hinges back to back because you have no control over hinge overlay.
Wow ..... there's a lot to take in. I hope you don't mind watching this video several times ...... very educational but as I said ..... a lot to take in ...... plus ..... I have to re-arange al the measurement (as a Dutchman) to metric. Would be so fine when you guys (or in your case girl) switched from imperial to metrics (I guess there's a long way to go). But ....... imperial doesn't stand in my way to watch your projects, which I love to see. Btw. It's ok when you give the cat some attention while recording your video's 🙂
I know there are a lot of numbers thrown out there all at once. It's a lot to take in, but hopefully as it's applied to some projects, it'll sink in a little easier and not feel so overwhelming. Sorry about the inches! I don't make the rules here...I just follow them haha! I don't know why we never made the switch over to metric. But, I appreciate you watching despite the imperial units! Thanks for following along and I hope you have a wonderful week!
That’s Bubby! He’s my best bud 😆 he shows up in a lot of my videos…sometimes in the background and sometimes close up haha. Keep an eye out for him if you watch other videos of mine 😉
I don’t have an exact date yet but I’ll have more videos out on this soon. If you’re looking for information specifically about choosing hinges, I have a guide here: www.woodshopdiaries.com/how-to-choose-cabinet-door-hinges/

I just finished building my cabinet boxes, but here is the conundrum one of my cabinets is a blind corner. My cabinets are frameless.
Is the problem that you want the door to open from the corner but there’s nothing to mount the hinge to?
@@WoodshopDiaries basically
When I built my sisters kitchen cabinets I made a blind cabinet like that and if I remember right, I think I mounted some scrap just inside the cabinet to mount the hinges too. I believe I ran a 3/4” plywood strip from top to bottom for that. Another option is to add a piece of 1x to the front, then you could use inset face frame hinges and mount the door to that 1x piece. But that may interfere with the cabinet next to it.
@@WoodshopDiaries half the front is 3/4” birch plywood. I’m tempted to use 1/4 overlay decorative wrapped hinges on all my cabinets.
