First time DIYer. I want to change my cabinet doors in the kitchen to newer ones. The cabinets I have are framed cabinets with center Stiles in all the larger sized cabinets. I was wondering if it's possible to remove the center Stiles and then just get full overlay doors to cover that gap which would be left by the stile removal. I'm seeing so many YouTube tutorials that teach how to remove stile and then attach it to the door which imo looks ugly. Plus I've been thinking of changing the cabinet doors for a while just wondering if it's possible to do it or will it mess up the cabinets permanently.
I'm going with this video to measure for the door widths and heights but just want to make sure I can remove the stile before I start with the doors.
