FAQ
What is a 10x10 Kitchen?
A 10x10 kitchen is a standard measurement used within the kitchen cabinet and remodeling industry to help customers and designers estimate the cost of new cabinets. It refers to a kitchen layout that is 10 feet by 10 feet in size, providing a basic, manageable space to design within. This standardized size is often used to compare the prices of different cabinet styles and configurations, as it provides a consistent basis for quotation. At CabinetsHQ.com we also make a "10 Foot Run" available to price comparison.
What does RTA cabinets mean?
RTA cabinets stand for "Ready-To-Assemble" cabinets. These are a type of cabinetry that comes in pre-manufactured parts, including doors, drawer fronts, and frames, which the buyer assembles and installs in their home or job site. RTA cabinets are popular for their cost-effectiveness and flexibility, allowing for a wide range of styles and configurations without the higher cost of shipping. They are typically shipped in flat-pack boxes with all the necessary hardware and instructions for assembly, making them a convenient option for DIY projects with savings of as high as 50% of assembled cabinets. Shop our RTA cabinets from Craft.

Framed vs. Frameless Cabinets
Framed and frameless cabinets are two primary types of cabinet construction, each offering distinct advantages and styles. Here's a breakdown of both to help you understand their differences:
Framed Cabinets
- Structure: Framed cabinets have a face frame at the front of the cabinet box. This frame is made of solid wood and provides structural support, to which the cabinet doors and hinges are attached.
- Appearance: They tend to have a more traditional look and can offer more detailed design options due to the frame.
- Installation & Adjustment: The frame allows for easier installation and door adjustment. It can also be more forgiving in homes with uneven walls.
- Accessibility: The presence of the frame slightly reduces the opening size of the cabinet, which can affect accessibility and the amount of visible interior space.
Frameless Cabinets
- Structure: Frameless, or "European-style," cabinets do not have a face frame. The cabinet doors attach directly to the sides of the cabinet box, providing a sleek and simple look.
- Appearance: They offer a more contemporary, minimalist appearance, with tighter door seams and a more seamless overall look.
- Installation & Adjustment: Installation and door alignment may require more precision. However, modern hardware and adjustments mechanisms have made this easier.
- Accessibility: Frameless cabinets provide slightly more storage space and easier access since there is no face frame taking up space. This allows for wider drawers and pull-outs.
