Cabinets Furniture

A Cabinet is usually a box-shaped piece of furniture with doors or drawers for storing miscellaneous items. Some cabinets stand alone while others are built into a wall or are attached to it like a medicine cabinet. Cabinets are typically made of wood or, now increasingly, of synthetic materials.

Cabinets are manufactured in two basic box constructions: frameless or face frame. In face frame cabinets, supporting frames attach to the front of the cabinet box. This frame is usually 1 1/2 inches wide and made from wood. Mounted on this face frame is the door. Frameless cabinets, on the other hand, have no supporting front frame. The doors attach directly to the insides of the cabinet box.

Cabinets usually have one or more doors on the front, which are mounted with door hardware, and occasionally a lock. Many cabinets have doors and drawers or only drawers. Short cabinets often have a finished surface on top that can be used for display, or as a working surface such as the countertops found in kitchens.

Here are some Types of Cabinets that offer a variety of options to choose the best cabinets for your home or office. The terms stock, semi-stock and custom do not refer to the level of quality, they refer to the method of production and no way tell about the quality of finished product you will get. Take a look at the types of cabinet, and choose the cabinet that fit without cramping the space!
