Dividers that run side to side, parallel to the drawer front, splitting the drawer into rows. Compartments = (lateral + 1) x (axial + 1).
Dividers that run front to back, splitting the drawer into long bays. Three axial dividers make the classic four bay flatware layout.
Fixed dividers stay in place. Removable dividers sit in the same dados and slide straight up and out. Multi groove boxes have grooves in the front and back so the front to back dividers can be moved. Ignored when both divider counts are 0.
Distance between grooves in the front and back. 1" gives the finest adjustment, 3" the cleanest look. Lateral dividers in a multi groove box are set in dados.
Dividers are Baltic Birch plywood, which stays flat in thin sections.
As standard, the top of each divider sits 1/8" below the top edge of the box.
Height of the divider measured from the bottom edge of the box. Must be at least 1/8" below the box height.
Describe the spacing, or email a sketch to Sales@gritlyusa.com with your order number.
Which slides will the box run on? For undermount slides we notch and drill the back to match. Choose None for side mount slides.

Description

A custom dovetail drawer box with the dividers built in

This is our custom drawer box with wood dividers set into it. We build the box to the outside size you enter, cut to the 1/32 inch, with true interlocking dovetails on all four corners and a bottom captured in a groove. Then we cut 1/4 in deep dados in the walls and set Baltic Birch plywood dividers in the layout you choose, so the organizer is part of the drawer instead of a tray that slides around inside it. Built in USA, in our Las Vegas, Nevada shop, and shipped assembled.

What you choose

  • Wood. Baltic Birch (our standard, ships finished) or Hard Maple (Select Grade), finished or unfinished.
  • Box. Side thickness, bottom, and outside width, depth and height. Width 6 to 35 31/32 in, depth 9 to 24 31/32 in (undermount boxes follow the runner length), height 2 to 12 3/4 in.
  • Slide prep. Notched and drilled for your undermount runner if you need it, with front locking clips installed on request.
  • Layout. 0 to 6 lateral dividers (side to side) and 0 to 6 axial dividers (front to back). Compartments = (lateral + 1) x (axial + 1), up to 49.
  • Divider style. Fixed in dados, removable in dados, or multi groove with grooves on 1, 2 or 3 in centers in the front and back.
  • Divider thickness and height. 1/4 in (standard) or 1/2 in dividers, with the top 1/8 in below the box top as standard or a custom height you choose.
  • Spacing. Equal spacing, or custom spacing with your bay sizes in the layout notes. You can also email a sketch to Sales@gritlyusa.com with your order number. We read your notes and contact you if anything is unclear.

Divider styles

Fixed in dados

Each divider is glued into a dado cut into the walls and stays in place. The cleanest, most permanent choice for flatware and knife drawers.

Removable in dados

The same dados, with the dividers left loose so they slide straight up and out for cleaning or to open the drawer up later.

Multi groove

Evenly spaced dados in the front and back on 1, 2 or 3 in centers. Move each front to back divider to a new groove whenever your contents change. The axial count you choose is the number of loose dividers we include, and any lateral dividers are fixed in dados.

Wherever dividers cross, in every style, we half lap the crossing so the grid finishes flush. Clip grooves and line bored pins are not offered here; describe them on the instant quote if you need one.

Before you order

Every size you enter is the outside of the box, and we build exactly that, so make your slide deduction first. Side mount boxes are 1 in narrower than the cabinet opening. Undermount widths depend on the runner model; our undermount slide guide and measuring guide walk through it. To plan compartments, see drawer divider layouts and kitchen drawer divider sizes. Not sure about fixed or removable? Read fixed vs removable drawer dividers. The divider drawers page has compartment size tables and more examples.
