Print or mark a paper template and test on scrap before drilling the real face.
Confirm stile, rail, bevel, inset, and hinge clearance on the actual cabinet.
Use the hardware manufacturer's template when it disagrees with this quick layout.
Measure from the same reference edge on every door or drawer in the run.
Use it for cabinet marking, not final carpentry approval.
This calculator does not inspect real doors, rails, bevels, hinges, screw length, manufacturer templates, or finish damage risk. Mark a disposable template and test before drilling the cabinet face.
