Figure 37 Kast installed in the front hall of the Glen-Sanders House,

Gavin Ashworth.) The kast has a four-panel, room-sized door below and
two side-by-side doors above. The lower door is mounted on dovetail hinges,
the innermost leaves of which are bent around the stile like the lid hinges
of chests. The two doors above have English H-hinges. The edges of the
lower door are slightly back-chamfered for a tight fit, in the Dutch manner. |
