Adelphi Kitchens offers fully customizable, frameless cabinetry. Our full-overlay doors completely cover cabinet boxes to create a sleek, seamless appearance. By eliminating the frame, these designs offer more spacious interiors with easier access to items. The minimalist reveals between the doors and drawer fronts reflect a classic European style that’s visually pleasing in many homes or businesses.
Frameless Cabinet Options
Find a frameless cabinet style that meets your material, design and sizing requirements.
Ridgewood: All Plywood
Our Ridgewood frameless cabinetry is a European style that’s constructed with 3/4-inch plywood, which we assemble with wood dowels and glue. The drawer boxes are dovetailed solid wood. Some features include:
- 1/2-inch birch plywood backs on wall cabinets and wall corners — or 1/4-inch plywood backs on base cabinets and tall cabinets.
- 1/8-inch-thick curved plywood backs for base corner cabinets, which we can adjust to meet construction specifications.
- Naturally finished birch interiors with a matching interior upgrade available for an additional fee.
- 3/4-inch birch-veneered, particle core shelves with a natural finish — or 3/4-inch plywood shelves that are available for an upgrade.
- Shelves that are adjustable in 1 1/4-inch increments with a peg-in-hole linebore system.
Woodbrier: Engineered
The Woodbrier collection’s European-style, frameless cabinets are constructed with 3/4-inch engineered wood sides and assembled with wood dowels and glue. The drawer boxes are dovetailed solid wood. These cabinets include:
- 3/4-inch natural wood-grain interiors, flat bottoms, and shelves — please order Ridgewood for recessed bottoms.
- 5/8-inch wood-grain backs on wall cabinets and corner cabinets — or 1/4-inch backs on base cabinets and tall cabinets.
- Base corner cabinets with angled or square backs to suit the storage size, shape, and contents.
- Shelves that are adjustable in 1 1/4-inch increments with a peg-in-hole linebore system.
Brier Select: Light-Colored Hardwoods
Our Brier Select cabinetry features doors that are a mix of white hardwoods, such as maple and birch. Just like our other frameless lines, these cabinets feature hardwood particle board that’s constructed with wood dowels and glue. We use Woodbrier cabinet boxes for the construction.
Tekton: Laminate or Luxe
Our team can combine Woodbrier cabinet boxes with durable laminate slab doors and drawer fronts, which are ideal for heavy-use areas. Consider using our Tekton Luxe program to upgrade the doors, drawers, and finished sides with a Dolce Soft Touch or Brillante High Gloss.
Whitebrier: Euro-Contemporary
Whitebrier is a Euro-Contemporary cabinetry line with 3/4-inch white interiors and shelves. Similar to the Woodbrier collection, these cabinets feature 3/4-inch engineered tops, floors, and sides assembled with wood dowels and glue. The collection includes 5/8-inch backs on wall cabinets and corners, or 1/4-inch backs on base cabinets and tall cabinets. The shelves are adjustable in 1 1/4-inch increments with the same peg-in-hole bore system.
3DL: Euro-Contemporary
We offer 3D Laminate (3DL) European frameless cabinets that are made with PVC for a consistent color and surface quality from edge to edge. We offer various mattes, glosses, wood grains, and textures to customize the finish. This product line is constructed with Whitebrier cabinet boxes.
Level: Euro-Contemporary
Our Level Door acrylics are flat laminated with various edgebanding options. All of our Level doors are made with standard Whitebrier cabinet boxes.
Strata: Natural Wood-Grain Laminate
Our Strata line features durable, engineered surface materials that mimic the look and texture of real wood. We can use the Ridgewood, Woodbrier, or Whitebrier cabinet boxes to complete these products.
Common Specifications
These specifications are common for all our frameless product lines:
- Recessed toe kicks: Our cabinet bases are considered unfinished parts with a recessed toe kick, and we recommend applying a wood toe base molding or another covering material to create a finished appearance after installation. If a full flush toe is desired, this detail must be noted in an order.
- Scribes: Decorative moldings can enhance a cabinet’s overall look. These must be ordered as loose fillers — we don’t attach fillers to cabinets.
- Fillers: Strips of material or finished wood can fill gaps between cabinets, walls, or appliances. We provide custom sizes down to 1/8-inch increments in height, width, and depth to help minimize the need for fillers.
- Hinges: Our frameless lines come with fully concealed, European hinges manufactured by BLUM. These hinges are highly favored for their engineered precision, easy adjustments, and soft-close designs.
