Answers: How do you build custom built-in cabinets with drawers and shaker-style doors?
- Building built-in cabinets
- Cutting plywood with table saw and chop saw
- Dado groove joinery for cabinet assembly
- Pocket hole screw construction
- Assembling cabinet face frames
- Installing Blum undermount drawer slides
- Building shaker-style cabinet doors and drawers
What it concludes
- Building four separate cabinet boxes is much easier to install than one giant piece.
- Making two passes with a dado stack allows for precise fine-tuning of groove width for a tight fit on panel pieces.
- Cutting end pieces first when making face frames ensures no end grain is visible on top and bottom.
- Leaving the face frame 1/8 inch short provides wiggle room during top-to-bottom installation.
- Using spacer blocks during face frame assembly ensures even spacing and a square build without needing a square or tape measure.
- Installing cabinet doors first makes it easier to measure and build drawers below to the exact same span.
