Cabinetry: Choice of Cabinets Styles Makes the Kitchen
Cabinet Selection: Decide on Kitchen Cabinets Early


Cabinetry dominates the kitchen. Cabinet styles set the tone for how a kitchen looks and cabinet layout makes all difference in how a kitchen functions. How much cabinets cost establishes a new kitchens budget - up to 75 percent in kitchen remodels.

If you are a homeowner remodeling or a home owner building starting with a new kitchen, decide on your cabinet selection early. The decision on which cabinets to use affects how long the work takes and also sets the stage for choosing appliances, countertops, flooring, and many other elements related to the kitchen areas.

Kitchen Planning
Look at cabinet plans and pictures of kitchens from picture books, local kitchen design centers, home centers, home design magazines, and the Internet like you are doing are all great sources of new kitchen pictures and information for initial remodeling planning of kitchens.

Decide on on cabinet style choices, then look inside of the cabinets themselves, online, in magazines, the library, and choose some of the amazing array of accessories which are now available for the modern kitchen cabinets after you have established your kitchen's design.

Looking inside of the kitchen cabinets and looking at the construction of kitchen cabinets we see first of all a basic box. The cabinet's box is also called a case. There are two
styles of cases. They are either built as face-frame cabinets or frameless cabinets.

Face-frame cabinets are an American style of cabinets and are the most popular style of cabinets manufactured today.

Face-frame cabinets consist of a frame which consists of horizontal frame members called rails. The vertical cabinet frame members are called stiles. The rails and stiles are fastened to the front of the cabinet box and adds significant strength to the cabinet.

Frameless cabinets were started in Europe originally in the 1950's and still hold the term by some cabinet manufacturers as European style kitchen cabinets. A European or frameless cabinet is a simple box, and the doors and drawers nearly cover the cabinet's case completely.

Frameless cabinets are often associated with modern cabinet styles, still frameless
cabinets can easily be made to look more traditional with moldings, paneling, and other kitchen decor accessories.

Choosing the kitchen cabinet style that you like is the important thing. Remember to choose your kitchen cabinet style early. Everything else in your kitchen construction or remodeling project by your kitchen's contractor including your kitchen's design all centers around your choice of kitchen cabinets.
