# Full access cabinet

A full access cabinet has no center stile or frame in front, so the whole interior is reachable the moment the doors open, with nothing blocking your hands.

In a full access cabinet, the front opening is as wide as the box. There is no frame piece or center post. You can slide in a large pot or pull out a deep drawer without scraping the frame.

The brand makes a specific claim about it. The EliteCraft and Urban brochures say that "Full access frameless cabinets allow for 15% more storage than framed cabinets." The Profile brochure uses the same 15% figure. These are our numbers, not an independent test.

Full access works because the box is a rigid [frameless cabinet](https://innovationcabinetry.multisites.ai/glossary/frameless). The Urban brochure describes a 3/4 inch plywood box. See the [Urban Full Access collection](https://innovationcabinetry.multisites.ai/urban_full_access_cabinetry), and read the [full overlay and full access guide](https://innovationcabinetry.multisites.ai/guides/full-overlay-and-full-access-cabinets) for more.
