Edgewater Cabinet Door

Tenon Door and Drawer Front Construction

The Cabinet Door Store manufactures its wood tenon style cabinet doors without the use of any metal pins. All solid panels are installed with rubber spacers to allow for expansion or contraction in different environmental situations. All plywood panels are glued in on all four sides as plywood is structurally stable and this prevents any possible vibration problems in the future with the plywood panel.

Tenon Door and Drawer Front Thickness

All tenon doors are 0.8” (20mm) thick.

Grain Direction

Cabinet doors have a vertical grain by default. Drawer Fronts have a horizontal grain by default (as of 1/18/2022; NOTE: product photos show vertical grain; this is available by request). Grain direction is not applicable for doors and drawer fronts with Paint Grade Maple w/ HDF Center Panels.

Center Rails & Stiles on Tenon Doors and Drawer Fronts

Defaults:

• Cabinet doors over 48” in height will have a horizontal center rail inserted
• Cabinet doors over 24” in width will have a vertical center stile inserted.
• Cabinet doors over 48” in width will have 2 vertical center stiles inserted.
• Drawer Fronts under 48″ in width WILL NOT have a vertical center stile.
• Drawer Fronts OVER 48″ in width WILL have a vertical center stile.

All center stiles and rails will be centered to create even-sized panels. Tenon Doors and Fronts over 24″ W or 48″ H without recommended midrail/stile are possible to order but ARE NOT covered by our 1 year warranty.

Tolerance

The Cabinet Door Store warrants that it’s wood cabinet doors have a size tolerance of +/- 1mm.

Warping is always a factor with wood cabinet doors. The Cabinet Door Store warrants that any door or drawer front under 24”x48” will have an allowance of 1/8” for warpage. Doors or drawer fronts between the sizes of 24”x48” and 24”x72” will have an allowance of ¼” for warpage. Any doors or drawer fronts wider than 24” or higher than 72” will not be warranted for warpage.

Note: This applies to doors and drawer fronts with one vertical grain panel.

Inset Doors and Drawer Fronts

When ordering tenon cabinet doors for an inset application, we recommend ordering your doors slightly oversized with the “I” outside edge profile. This way you can size the front specifically for your opening. Because of the properties inherent in wood and the achievable tolerances, we do not guarantee fronts to fit an inset application properly.
