Our 1980s cabinets with double doors have a built-in 2-inch wide center stile. Current cabinet doors leave the stile exposed. The doors have a lip (rabbet?) so part of the door fits inside the frame. I will be ordering shaker doors.

Is it OK to leave the center stile and measure for full overlay? Current doors are hung with with hinges on the same side (e.g. right side) so they both swing open left to right. I plan to to put hinges on opposite sides so doors meet and close in the middle against the stile.
