The rails and stiles are often the same width for an even border around the door. The length of the stiles will be equal to the height of the door. The width of the rails is equal to the width of the door, minus the width of 2 stiles, plus the depth of the panel groove / con...
A full access frame can be designed with a thin frame with stiles that are about half the width of conventional stiles, such that inner sides of the stiles and rails include hidden/blind connection points to facilitate hidden or blind mounting of the full access frame to cabinet sides with ...
Butt Joint:Frames will be assembled using wood glue and high-strength pocket screws at all joints. Haunched:For added rigidity, haunched construction may be requested. If haunching is requested, all mid-stiles/mid-rails will be 1-7/8″ wide. Haunching will be used for all beaded frames....

I’m making doors that will be 25 inches tall, so my stiles will be 25 inches long. To calculate the length of the rails, I’ll start with my door width (16 inches) then subtract the width of my 2 stiles (2 inches). So that leaves me with 12 inches. However I know I’ll be...
Step 3: Cut your stiles and rails to length. In the example above, an 18″ x 38″ cabinet door would have 2 – 38″ vertical stiles and 2 – 15″ horizontal rails. To determine the horizontal rail lengths, take the overall width (in the example, 18″) and subtract approximately 3 ...
I use the bottom mount rails with the sockets, as well. If you are going to mount them to the sides of the modules, I would use hardwood that matches the interior finish. If you rabbet your stiles, you will have to ensure that when you apply the facing, the interior inset of the ...
