Cabinet Door/Raised Panel Calculator

Opening
Opening Height (H):	The opening height is the height of the opening measured to the face frame without any gap.
Opening Width (W):	The opening width is the width of the opening measured to the face frame without any gap.
Door Style
Stile Width (SW):	The stile width determines the width of all rails, stiles, and mullions on the door.
Overlay (OL):	The overlay is the amount the door is larger than the cabinet opening. The calculator applies a constant overlay all around the door. The door is larger than the opening by the same amount all around. Setting this value to 0 creates a door with the exact dimensions of the opening. A negative value creates an inset door. On a double door the overlay is applied to the two doors as a unit. There is no gap between the doors. Both doors together are the same size and have the same overlay as a single door.
Tooling
Tool depth of cut (TD):	The tool depth of cut is the depth of the cut produced by the rail&stile cutter. Enter the cutting distance of your cutter.
Panel gap (PG):	The panel gap is a small expansion gap between the panel and the frame. A value of 1/8" is a good default choice. The panel gap must be smaller than the tool cutting depth. If this is not the case the panel will fall out of the frame.

Information

This calculator creates a cut list for the parts of a cabinet door:

raised panel construction with stiles and rails
all joints are created with a rail and stile router/shaper bit
the panel has a expansion gap (PG) all around
mullions are the same width as the rails and stiles
the overlay (OL) is applied to the entire circumference of the door
inset doors can be created by specifying a negative overlay (OL)
