This is the most common opening on our older cabinets. Pay attention to the lip around the insert. There will also be a sticker at the end to verify a size number, and a measuring tape that’s moulded into the cabinet.
Dimensions: 480mm x 285mm Approx.
Notice the tape measure imbedded into the acrylic. This will tell you if it’s your size or not.
Inset (Modern Design)
An Inset is a flat, laser-cut acrylic panel designed to sit flush with your sewing machine and the cabinet surface.
Typically used in newer furniture models
Sits on internal holders or a rebated ledge inside the cabinet opening
Provides a flush surface, improving fabric control and ease of sewing
Custom-cut for your specific sewing machine make and model
➡️ If your cabinet has a recessed ledge or sits inside the opening, you likely need an Inset.
Insert (Older Style)
An Insert is a moulded plastic panel made using a routing machine, common in older Horn Furniture models.
Features a raised lip around the edge to prevent it from falling through the opening
Sits slightly above the cabinet surface
Designed for various machine make and models, though less flush than modern insets
➡️ If your panel rests on top of the cabinet opening with a visible rim, you likely have an Insert.
