  • Installation details

Built for joiners, cabinetmakers, and joinery workshops.

Cabinet shop drawing markup and joinery drawing review.

An appliance opening, a hinge clearance and a scribe allowance are different questions. Add a separate, specific comment for each detail. Layr's notes, drawing measurements and reusable markup tools help make the review clear across plans, cabinet elevations and sections.

Before you start

A few practical details.

Will Layr generate a cutting list or CNC file?

No. Use Layr to review and mark up PDF drawings alongside your existing cabinet-design and manufacturing software. It does not generate cutting lists, nesting layouts, or machine instructions.

What happens after the seven-day trial?

Editing tools lock unless you have a valid paid entitlement. You can still open, view, print, and save existing work. The trial requires a verified account and internet access; sending this form does not create or reset a trial.

Do I need a credit card to try Layr?

No. Leave your email to continue to the download, then sign in inside Layr with Google or an email link. You only enter payment details if you choose a paid subscription.

Will my drawings be uploaded?

The Windows desktop app renders local PDFs on your computer. Adding a PDF to a shared cloud project uploads a copy for collaboration. Keep confidential documents local unless you are authorized to share them.

Does Layr replace my specialist trade software?

Layr is for PDF review, not cutting lists or CNC output. Verify site dimensions and approved shop drawings before manufacture.
