Cabinet drawing software used to add a door
Cabinet drawing software can easily incorporate doors.
This post and included video show how to add a door to our box as any 3D cabinet design might require. It demonstrates the concepts, tools, and steps necessary to create the rails and stiles.
First we start by opening SketchList 3D and choose the box project. And if you don’t have it just click the Quick Create New Project button [yellow] at the left of the screen.
In the post on adding frames we took the time to modify the cabinet size to allow space on the front for the frame and door. So that created the 1 1/2 inches required for both the frame and the overlay door.
The reviews using the red and blue dots to size and locate the doors and its parts in our 3D cabinet design. And it shows which board icons to use for the panel, rails and stiles.

My woodworking love started in 6th grade in school shop class. I have a BS in Industrial Technology and an MBA. At my first job, I computerized a production accounting system – the results were positive, and I loved the challenges. I left the corporate world to begin woodworking full time and one of my first decisions was to use CAD for my designs. I found that CAD did not meet all my needs. I wrote a specification of what I wanted and turned it into a prototype. SketchList 3D incorporated in 2007. We completed programming and launched. Today thousands of woodworkers use SketchList 3D.
