Rather than being stuck with the same look they’ve had in their home, they want to make a change.

Often, it’s necessary to vary the width of the rails on a particular case. Obviously, the width of the stiles and rails will affect both its structural and aesthetic effect. My loose guideline would specify that stiles should be at least 1 12' wide and rails 1 14'. This process can take days, or even weeks, depending on your contractor, during which you have only limited access, if any, to your kitchen. The trick is to size the parts to meet your design considerations.

Bruce stiles and rails how to#
Michael Fortune has a nice video on Fine Woodworking showing how to do this.Sometimes, you’re ready for a completely new look in your kitchen or bathroom, but the existing cabinets are in perfectly good condition. Finally, since you're dealing with a wood with relatively poor screw holding power, you could consider reinforcing the holes. So, use a long screw (you should be able to accommodate 5/8" for sure, and probably 3/4") and drill the pilot holes to the recommended size and length for the screw.
You want maximum holding power on the top hinge. Two will do if you use good quality, properly sized butt hinges, but you want to pay attention to getting the screws right.
Since you're mimicking Shaker design, I'm going to guess you plan to use butt hinges (I also doubt you'd find offset or concealed hinges that would fit 1 1" stile). The failure modes are quite different for, say, butt hinges, vs offset hinges. Hinges: You don't indicate what kind of hinges you intend, so this is a bit harder to answer.
I would take care though, to make sure you've got straight grained wood with no to minimal short grain run out on both the rails and stiles. That will give you close to 2 in 2 of long grain glue surface on each corner joint, which will be sufficient. In either case, coped joints (which in your case would mean the tenon on the rails being the same depth as the groove for the glass) will not be sufficient long term for these doors. If it were me, I would (and have) go with 1 1/4". Rails and Stiles: 1" will be ok, although minimal, if you use appropriate joinery. You asked two questions, one about width of the rails and stiles, and one about hinges.
