Framed full access cabinet

Abstract

A full access frame can be designed with a thin frame with stiles that are about half the width of conventional stiles, such that inner sides of the stiles and rails include hidden/blind connection points to facilitate hidden or blind mounting of the full access frame to cabinet sides with mounted dowel connectors that attach to the hidden/blind connection points. A framed full access cabinet includes a full access frame mounted on front of a cabinet box, such that drawer rails and door hinges can be mounted on inner cabinet sides of the cabinet box. The dowel connectors and the hidden/blind connection points can be respectively slide-in dowels and slide-in inserts or alternatively snap-in dowels and snap-in inserts.

What is claimed is:

         7 . A full access cabinet, comprising:
 a full access frame, comprising:
 a right stile, comprising a plurality of right connection points positioned on an inner side of the right stile; and 
 a left stile, comprising a plurality of left connection points positioned on an inner side of the left stile; 
   wherein the right connection points are configured to attach to right dowel connectors of a right cabinet side, such that the right cabinet side is attachable to the inner side of the right stile; and   wherein the left connection points are configured to attach to left dowel connectors of a left cabinet side, such that the left cabinet side is attachable to the inner side of the left stile;   such that the right connection points and the left connection points are hidden, to facilitate hidden mounting of the full access frame.   
     
     
         8 . The full access cabinet of  claim 7 , wherein the right stile and the left stile each have a width in a range of ⅝″ to ⅞″. 
     
     
         9 . The full access cabinet of  claim 7 , further comprising:
 a) the right cabinet side, comprising a plurality of the right dowel connectors, which protrude from an outer end of the right cabinet side; and   b) the left cabinet side, comprising a plurality of the left dowel connectors, which protrude from an outer end of the left cabinet side;   wherein the right dowel connectors are attached to the right connection points, such that the right cabinet side is attached to the inner side of the right stile; and   wherein the left dowel connectors are attached to the left connection points, such that the left cabinet side is attached to the inner side of the left stile.   
     
     
         10 . The full access cabinet of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 right and left drawer rails, which are mounted on inner sides of respectively the right cabinet side and the left cabinet side.
