A template is a pattern cabinet makers follow to install countertops. A template helps to makev sure the countertop sits perfectly on the cabinet unit. A Templates are normally constructed using plywood or other thin, stiff materials. Because countertops are made using expensive and good quality materials, it is vital that the dimension and design are accurate. A template is a great way to ensure that the countertop material is perfectly cut to fit correctly.

 

Templates are important particularly if the cabinet has a complex or unusual design and shape. The cabinetmaker can design and construct the template as soon as the cabinets are installed. Once the form and measurement of the template is accurate, it is then used to cut the marble, granite, or another material that will be used for the countertop.
