Introducing Cabinet Door Cut List: The Essential App for Cabinet Makers

Spread the love

As cabinet makers and woodworkers, we know the frustration: you’re ready to cut, your materials are laid out, but you’re stuck doing math and double-checking measurements. One mistake and you’ve wasted expensive hardwood. We’ve been there.

That’s why we created Cabinet Door Cut List – a free Android app designed specifically for professional cabinet makers, carpenters, and serious woodworkers who need accurate cut lists fast.

Stop Wasting Time on Calculations

Here’s the problem every cabinet maker faces: calculating door components takes time. You need to figure out stile lengths, rail lengths, panel dimensions – and don’t forget to account for dado depths and proper clearances. Do it wrong and you’re making another trip to the lumber yard.

Cabinet Door Cut List does all the math for you. Instantly.

Built for Real Cabinet Work

This isn’t just another calculator app. We designed it based on how cabinet makers actually work:

🎯 Fraction-Based Inputs

No decimal conversions needed. Enter measurements exactly like you think: 24 3/16 inches. The app even has dropdown selectors for 16ths, so you don’t have to type fractions on your phone.

🚪 Multiple Door Types

  • 1-Panel Doors – Classic shaker style
  • 2-Panel Doors – Stacked panels
  • 4-Panel Doors – 2×2 grid layout

The app automatically calculates the correct number of stiles (including short stiles for 4-panel doors) and rails for each type.

⚡ Bulk Entry Mode

Got a kitchen full of doors? Enter them all at once – one door per line. The app calculates everything in seconds. No more writing down measurements on scraps of wood or using a calculator between each door.

✅ Smart Cut List View

Here’s where it gets really useful. Instead of looking at each door individually, switch to Cut List View. The app groups all identical pieces together:

Full-Height Stiles
☐ 48" - Quantity: 12
☐ 36" - Quantity: 8

Rails  
☐ 19 3/4" - Quantity: 16
☐ 14 1/2" - Quantity: 12

Panels
☐ 19 11/16" × 40 11/16" - Quantity: 6

Cut all your 48-inch stiles at once, check them off, move to the next size. It’s organized exactly how you’d actually work in the shop.

✓ Progress Tracking

Check off pieces as you cut them. Your progress is saved automatically – even if you close the app or take a lunch break. Come back later and pick up right where you left off.

Fully Customizable Settings

Every cabinet maker has their own preferences. The app lets you adjust:

  • Stile width (default: 2 1/2″)
  • Rail width (default: 2 1/2″)
  • Dado depth (default: 3/8″)
  • Panel clearances (default: 1/16″)

Set it once and all your calculations use your specifications. Or adjust on the fly for special projects.

Common Questions

Does this work for raised panel doors?

Yes! The app calculates frame components (stiles and rails) which are the same for both flat panel and raised panel doors. Just adjust your panel thickness settings as needed.

Can I adjust the dado depth?

Absolutely. The default is 3/8″, but you can customize it in Settings to match your router bit or table saw setup.

Will my projects sync across devices?

Currently, projects are stored locally on your device. This ensures your data stays private and the app works offline. Cloud sync may come in a future update.

Is this only for cabinet doors?

While designed for cabinet doors, it works for any frame-and-panel construction: passage doors, wainscoting panels, decorative panels, etc.
