The drawers are 15″ long so I used 14″ slides. The Project in the Photos: You may notice that the slides are set back further than 3/4″ in these photos. For inset drawers with a 3/4″ face, position the slide 3/4″ back from the front of the frame. Inset Drawers: Attach the slide on the drawer at the very front of the drawer box, butted up against the back of the drawer face. It’s not as important with drawers that stop on the surface of the frame since the drawer front will stop it, but you still want it pretty close. The location of the slide inside the frame depends on where you mounted the slide to the bottom of the drawer.įinding the correct location is critical with inset drawers since they have to stop in line with the face frame. If necessary, add blocks to the slide location. On this particular project, I had to block the drawer slides out 1/4″ on each side. Make sure the support is level from the front to the back. Measure to where you want the bottom of the drawer to sit and clamp a support board in place.
