Panel strapping and Sterling Inset

For an eye-catching metallic accent, metal strapping can be applied to the face of any 3/4” thick door with a square bead and flat center panel. The Shaker door is highly recommended for this application, as opposed to Legacy I.

Strapping can also be applied around the inside edge of the face frame to create Sterling Inset; this will create a line of metallic finish visibly outlining each door and drawer. When you open the cabinet, the full width of the strap will be visible on the frame’s edge. The sterling inset style comes in two types: “Fine Sterling Inset”, which is 1/16″ thick material applied to a 1 1/2″ wide flush inset frame; and “Bold Sterling Inset”, which is 1/4″ thick material applied to a 1 1/4″ wide face frame in the same way as beaded inset.

Both panel straps and Sterling Inset are available in your choice of five finishes. Note that “Sterling” in the name Sterling Inset does not apply to the color, but only to the name of the program. You must specify the color that you want. Please note this may not be compatible with certain materials or textures, such as Strata or Euro-Contemporary.

Wire grille inserts

Wire grille inserts are available for open frame doors, with reeded, round, and flat wire options, as well as three opening configurations and your choice of antique brass, oil-rubbed bronze, or stainless finishes.

Aluminum frame base systems and wall shelves

For a modern twist, add an aluminum frame base to your cabinet by removing the toe kick. These unique and contemporary options are available in the same 11 finishes as our aluminum-frame doors. Frames will be sized to correspond with the doors and drawers on your cabinet, and can be ordered in your choice of heights to match the toe with neighboring cabinets.

Two-tier frame systems are also available to be used as kitchen islands; shelves and tops can be made and finished to sit atop the frame, as well as single-drawer cabinets similar to a planning desk.

Aluminum shelf frames allow for a clean and modern look which mixes a metal finish or color of your choice with highly customizable shelf inserts. Shelves can be made from any Adelphi standard material: finished wood, Strata, recycled leather, 3DL laminate, Level finishes, colored glass, and more.

Metal cabinetry legs

A selection of metal cabinetry legs are also available for base cabinets without toe kicks. There are a range of heights, shapes, sizes, and finishes to choose from.

A wide variety of other metal accent products are available to give your space that truly one-of-a-kind look. Contact your local dealer today to learn more about how Adelphi Kitchens & Cabinetry can “Aluminate” your home.
