Overlay cabinets are a typically cheaper option. Full overlay cabinets completely cover the face of the cabinet, leaving little to no frame exposed. Partial overlay cabinets sit on the face of the cabinet and leave a noticeable gap between the doors, allowing the frame of the cabinet to peek through. There are two different types of overlay cabinets – partial and full overlay. Inset cabinets are a popular choice amongst homeowners and growing in popularity. Because of the level of craftsmanship involved, inset cabinets are typically priced higher than their overlay counterparts, but provide a more distinct appearance. The hinges can be hidden or exposed – and in the case of our inset cabinetry, they are hidden to provide a premium and seamless appearance. But which one is right for you? Let’s take a closer look into some of the key differences between inset and overlay cabinetry.Īn inset cabinet design features doors that are set within the cabinet frame and sit flush with the face of the cabinet, providing a sleek appearance. LOL! OK – let me know what you chose and how it worked out! Would love to hear your advice now that you’ve also been there and back.If you’ve started to research kitchen or bath cabinets for your next remodel project, you have likely seen the countless different cabinet options on the market. Full overlay cabinets are gorgeous and will look great in your kitchen. I will recommend you to go with a full overlay instead of an inset.

Ive been told to heavily research the cabinet maker that was recommended by my contractor (Woodland – in South Dakota) but Im still skeptical, and of course my contractor has to install them perfectly! He is a personal family friend and I don’t want my new kitchen to be the demise of our friendship because of inset cabinets. The one major difference between the two is the price. I thought “well if they cant do it well for their own cabinetry showroom, who is going to care if they do it well at my house?” So then I was 100% overlay… and now Im second guessing again. THEN I went to a showroom (a couple actually) and was appalled at the gaps and errors you could see immediately. At first I was 100% inset because I have the budget and they look custom and gorgeous and theyre in all the high end kitchens. Im preparing a kitchen reno this year and going over and over which I should choose. Hi Holly, I was reading your blog exchange convo w/ Carrie from 2018 and wondering how your kitchen turned out and if you chose inset or full overlay.
