Built in cabinet with face frames flush to inside

Post by Rob Babcock »

I need to draw a built in drawer cabinet so that the face frames are flush on the inside (left and right) to the box.
How do I do that?

Also, if I am designing a face frame drawer cabinet, the software doesn't automatically add a cross member to the face frame for each drawer for me. Is there a setting for that?

Thanks
Rob

In the cabinet editor go to the construction settings. Go to face frames and put an offset measurement in the scribe section on the left and right stiles. If you have a 2" FF and use a 3/4" side the offset will be 1 1/4"

For the FF member to divide out drawer spaces you need to add them. Go to the FF editor and click on the space where you want to put the rail, it should highlight. The on the left click on the box and choose add mid rail. It will be added in the center of the area. Then click on one of the two areas and put in a height in the box in the upper left corner labeled opening height, hit enter. Do this as many times as you need rails.

Remember to save your final cabinet so you are building up your library of cabinets. :mrgreen:
