Router bits for cabinet door trim?

I'm looking for a bit or combination of bits that can make the trim on the inside of these two doors. I've skimmed through Freud's and Whiteside's selections, but didn't see anything that I thought would match up right. I'm not very experienced when it comes to combining multiple bits to achieve a particular profile, so it's possible I overlooked the ones I need to get.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! [smile]

Those appear to be applied mouldings. I see a rail and stile door, mitered trim corners. If they are one piece the profile could be cut with the board vertical (most likely on a shaper), corners were then jack mitered.

Agree with Tom, you can see the stile & rail joint which doesn't show as a mitre.

Both look like they could be face frame style with inset door and drawer front as on the top one you can see the hinges. Maybe the bottom one has euro hinges?
If they are inset both have a fairly simple beading bit possibly routed round edge or beading applied to the exposed edges. (Mitre joints visible?)
The bottom door looks like it has been made as a  shaker style and then a rebated moulding applied. We use this style a lot in the homes we work in and find Axminster moulding cutter bits (1-5) cover most styles we find.
I've attached the catalogue page.

The lower half of Whiteside's "Classical Multi-Forms" bits (#3340 or #3342) would give you the pattern. But since the pattern is just a bead and a cove, you could get the same effect using those two bits, if you already have them.
