Hi,
I would like to buy an armoire and install drawers in it. Is it possible to buy some basic drawers somewhere? I checked HD and Lowe's and they have drawer slides, but I didn't find any drawers. Many thanks in advance, Aaron |

I checked HD and Lowe's and they have drawer slides, but I didn't find any drawers. Many thanks in advance, Aaron Drawers are made to fit an opening and there are no standards for that. Ask a woodworker or make your own boxes. Easy to make with a tablesaw. For corners you can use a drawer-lock joint or box joint for stength, or a simple rabbet joint for shallow or small drawer boxes. A dovetail joint is the strongest (and nicer looking) but usually not required with slides. Flush fit drawers are very nice but challenging, lipped drawer fronts install faster. |

Check with local cabinetmakers before you make your decision. I get paint-grade drawers for about $20, plus another $7 or so for the false front. Finish grade isn't a whole lot more. I can't make them myself for that price. -- Steve Bell New Life Home Improvement Arlington, TX USA |
