What happens here

As with the intermediate method, apply wood glue only to the tenon and mortise joints of the frame pieces. Insert the raised panel into the grooves, ensuring it's not glued to allow for wood movement. Assemble the entire door and secure it with clamps, avoiding overtightening. Allow the glue to cure overnight for maximum strength.

Goal: Apply wood glue to the tenon and mortise joints of the frame pieces, inserting the raised panel into the mortise grooves without gluing it. Clamp the assembled door overnight.
