Gap Between Frameless Cabinet Doors

Frameless cabinets, also known as European-style cabinets, are designed for a sleek and seamless appearance. The gap between the cabinet doors in frameless designs is minimal, ensuring a modern and polished look.

Typical Gap Measurement

• The standard gap between frameless cabinet doors is 1/8 inch (3 mm).
• This small gap ensures that the doors do not touch when opened or closed, while maintaining the clean, continuous surface that frameless cabinets are known for.

Why the Gap is Small

• Seamless Aesthetic: The narrow gap is a hallmark of frameless cabinets, contributing to their contemporary, minimalist design.
• Functionality: A small gap prevents rubbing or interference when opening or closing the doors.
• Precision Hardware: Frameless cabinets use concealed hinges with precise adjustments to maintain the narrow gap.

Adjusting the Gap

If the gap between the doors is uneven, it can usually be adjusted using the concealed hinge system:

1. Side-to-Side Adjustment: Allows you to move the door closer to or farther from the adjacent door.
2. Depth Adjustment: Ensures the door sits flush with the cabinet box.
3. Height Adjustment: Aligns the top and bottom of the doors.
