Refers to how much distance the doors or drawer fronts overlays (or covers) the frame. This measurement is from the inside frame opening to the outside part of the door. The overlays vary from top and bottom and on the sides. Emerald City Cabinet Company offers two overlays, standard and full.
Cabinet frames are built using 1-1/4” wide material and the doors and drawer fronts overlay the frame 1” in width leaving 1/4” of the face frame visible. When two cabinets are installed next to each other the gap between the doors will be 1/2”. Cabinets with drawers will have fronts that overlay the 1-1/4” frame 5/16” leaving 1/2” between drawers or doors with drawers. From the top of the door or drawer fronts to the tops of all cabinets there will be 11/16” of the frame showing.
Same as standard overlay except there will be only a 1/8” between drawers/drawers and doors.
This is a Craftsman style look. The cabinet doors and drawer fronts sit inside the frame with a 1/8” gap all the way around.
