Full Overlay

A door mounting style where the cabinet door covers almost the entire face frame, leaving only a narrow reveal (usually ⅛ inch) between adjacent doors and drawers. Full overlay maximizes the visible door surface, minimizes the exposed frame, and creates a cleaner, more modern look than standard overlay. It is the most popular overlay style in new kitchen construction.
