Scottie,

It is precisely for the reasons you detail that I am not a great fan myself and inset frames do require more maintenance and frequent adjustment due to the doors or drawers snagging

on the frames.

However, they are popular, and if manufactured and fitted correctly, maintenance can be minimised.

Not sure how you might overcome a snagging problem with foil wrapped insets but with wooden frames and doors this can be overcome by applying sandpaper between door and frame and

opening and shutting till eased.

The website you have listed is not addressed correctly but don’t worry, it’s just as well because we don’t encourage company site links through the forum.
