TRADITIONAL
CABINETS
|
Framed or American-style Cabinets
Most stock cabinets are traditional framed boxes: the front edge of the
framed box is joined to a face frame or door that’s usually made
of hardwood. These traditional cabinets fit well into an uneven wall surface
as the frame can be shaved to fit. This style also makes it possible to
use affordable lower quality material for the sides and a higher quality
material for the door, making these pieces even more cost effective. Framed
cabinets are also generally considered stronger and more resistant to deformation
than frameless cabinets. 
Thermo-Foil Cabinets
Thermo-Foil is a vinyl material used to cover the outside of both traditional
and modern cabinet doors. This protective coating is water resistant and
makes cleaning a breeze. Because therma-foil covers the entire kitchen
cabinet door in one piece, its much easier to clean than high-pressure
laminate—no dirt collecting in buckling seams! |
