The first step in the process I am going by today for building your new wonderful custom cabinets is your face frame. Now we assemble frames for all kinds of trim details all the time so this is something that I am extremely experienced at and kind of passionate about when it comes to custom cabinets. I have found for me that pocket hole joinery is the best method anyone can use no matter what the situation and the best way to put those frames for a couple of reasons but one of the biggest ones is once I get the joint together soon as I drive that last screw and I am ready to move on to the next custom cabinets deal. Now there are a couple thing to consider that you always want to remember when using the pocket hole method and the first one is cut all of your pieces accurately and everything will go together well. All of your rails should be exactly the same so if you can use a stop to cut your custom cabinets that’s much better. Now to make a strong pocket hole joint the screws need to be going into the edge of the wood. You never run screws if possible into the end grain of wood so technically the rails almost always the pocket screws in them. You want good square edges on your boards. A nice clean edge because anytime you’re joining wood the cleaner the edge the better the joint for your custom cabinets.
