Because with frameless you don't inset
If you want the look of inset you need to add panels on the sides

Sorry Mastercab, I don't understand why you made this statement. Its extremely easy to go inset with frameless cabs and no additional end panels, I've personally done on many occasions for customers cabinets. You just have to measure properly and use the right slide.

I know you can inset doors and drawers on frameless cabinets but it's not the same look as with a frame
I have seen it like that and with a face frame attached to the doors but it's not the same construction
Still if you do inset doors and drawers you need to add the thickness of the doors to the  1/8"
Blum specs is giving for standard frameless construction not inset
Frameless cabinets were not designed originally to be inset but full overlay

Another interesting comment considering Blum has been making inset hardware for decades. Perhaps in the USA this is true, mainly because Blum USA makes a line of hardware only available to your market which is heavily entrenched with faceframe type construction. Everywhere else has the specs and construction instructions in metric, based on Full overlay, Half overlay and Inset for most components. I really could care less but making broad based statements is always questionable and the only reason I entered the discussion.
