There are basically two kinds of mission style kitchen cabinets — face frame and frameless. Almost 80% of the cabinets made by American manufacturers are face-framed. The front edge of a face-framed cabinet is made from hardwood; whereas, frameless European-style kitchen cabinets are made of panels finished on both sides and edged with a simple laminate banding. Installation of kitchen cabinets is fairly easy and many dealers offer installation either by their own personnel or by independent installers. People well versed with woodwork can install their kitchen cabinets on their own and save some money. These cabinets are generally made of photo-simulated wood and thin laminates.
