Melamine pull out drawers advice needed
Am building a bunch of white melamine pull outs.
The front of the box will be melamine (no wood face) I want to size the front so it overhangs 1/2" on each side to hide the slides also won't show any seams from the front. Whats the best way to attach the front to the carcass without the front showing screw holes? Thanks to all..... |

You have two choices. Make the front an integral part of the box, or make it a separate piece that gets screwed on from inside the box. The second option has a number of advantages...you make the box however you want, and drawer front alignment can be done after all the slides are mounted and locked into place, saving some fiddling with the slides.

Seperate box with face screwed from inside the box.
Use carpet tape tp hole it in place while you drill and screw on the inside. OneThou wrote: Am building a bunch of white melamine pull outs.
