Face frames insets

Post by Sergio Fetter »

Hello everyone,
I am working with some cabinet drawings that are a little bit different than I am used to.
In the face frame, it seams like that it is always 1 3/4" below the deck. Now, the people that I am doing the drawings, do not want to see that.
I can do a negative inset for the left, right and back end and fix that problem; however, if I lower the deck, the face frame lower with it.
Does anyone have any idea of how I could fix that. In other words I want my deck to be flush with the face frame.
Thanks!

Sergio,

Go to construction settings and enter a Bottom Inset for the deck that is the width of your bottom rail minus the thickness of your deck material.

For example if your bottom rail is 1 3/4" and your deck is 3/4" enter a Bottom Inset of 1".

Hello Kerry,
Thank you very much for your answer.
I guess that will work for all practical purposes. It gives the looks that they want.
Thanks again,

Sergio!
