The first digit of the style number indicates how the door is assembled or made. Traditionally doors are made using a frame/panel style construction. Because of this, a majority of the time it indicates specifically the panel style and the inside edge detail of the frame pieces (vertical stiles and horizontal rails) of which there are quite a few. Otherwise, it indicates that the door is made from a different type of material (i.e. plywood, veneer, or MDF.) The only major exception to this rule is Style #500 drawer fronts. In this case the first digit only indicates that it is a drawer front; hence, all drawer fronts will begin with #5xx. Within each series, there may be a few doors that bend the rules.
