FAQ
1 / How do I measure correctly for my order?
The easiest way to measure your cabinet doors is to measure the actual opening that it will cover then add the appropriate overlay. The overlay is the amount of the cabinet face frame that the door covers. We typically recommend 1/2" overlay and stock 1/2" overlay concealed hinges. You will want to measure the cabinet opening width and height then add 1" to each to calculate the finished door or drawer front size. We will be happy to assist you with final sizes if you provide the opening dimensions!

Absolutely – we cut every door to your specifications, including hinge boring upon request.
