Description
A divided drawer in standard sizes, built to order
This is our dovetail divided drawer in standard sizes. Pick your cabinet opening, the box height and one of seven divider layouts, and we build the matching box: the opening minus 3/8 in wide for Blum style undermount slides, 21 in deep, with 5/8 in sides, true interlocking dovetails on all four corners and a 1/4 in bottom captured in a groove. The dividers are 1/4 in Baltic Birch plywood, fixed in 1/4 in deep dados and half lapped where they cross, 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.
Need a size or layout that is not listed? Build it on the custom divided drawer box configurator, where every size is cut to the 1/32 inch, or follow our step by step divided drawer configurator guide.
Standard sizes
Every box is 21 in deep for 21 in undermount slides. The opening is the clear width inside the cabinet, between the sides or inside the face frame. The cabinet in brackets is a frameless cabinet with 3/4 in sides; measure yours to be sure.
| Cabinet opening | Frameless cabinet | Box width |
|---|---|---|
| 13 1/2 in | 15 in | 13 1/8 in |
| 16 1/2 in | 18 in | 16 1/8 in |
| 19 1/2 in | 21 in | 19 1/8 in |
| 22 1/2 in | 24 in | 22 1/8 in |
| 25 1/2 in | 27 in | 25 1/8 in |
| 28 1/2 in | 30 in | 28 1/8 in |
| 31 1/2 in | 33 in | 31 1/8 in |
| 34 1/2 in | 36 in | 34 1/8 in |
Box heights: 3 1/4, 4 1/4, 5 1/4 or 6 1/4 in. Measure the opening height, subtract 3/4 in and pick the closest size at or below it. Shallow top drawers usually take 3 1/4 or 4 1/4 in.

Before you order
Measure the clear opening at the top, middle and bottom and use the smallest number. These sizes are for undermount slides with the box 3/8 in narrower than the opening; side mount slides need a box 1 in narrower, so build those on the custom divided drawer box. A 21 in slide needs at least 21 15/16 in of inside cabinet depth. Our undermount slide guide and measuring guide walk through it, and the divider drawers page has compartment size tables.
