Pull out drawers
Pull out drawers for kitchen cabinets
A pull out drawer turns a dark base cabinet you dig through into a shelf that rolls out to you. We build them as real dovetailed wood boxes, sized to your exact cabinet, with the slides included and pre mounted if you want them. Measure the opening, order the size, drop it in.
You will find this same build sold as pull out cabinet drawers, cabinet pull out drawers, sliding cabinet drawers, slide out cabinet drawers or cabinet slide out drawers. Whatever the name, it is the same dovetailed box on slides, built to your cabinet.
Quick answer. A Gritly pull out is a real dovetailed wood drawer box sized to your exact cabinet, with ball bearing slides included and pre mounted if you want them. Standard sizes with slides are priced live on their product page and ship in about 2 to 4 days; custom sizes start at $46.99 and price live as you configure. Measure the opening, order the size, screw it in.

A wood pull out vs a wire organizer
Most pull out products online are wire baskets or thin metal trays that clamp to a shelf. They work until they sag, rattle or let small items fall through. A made to fit wood drawer box uses the full width and depth of your cabinet, carries real weight on ball bearing slides and looks like it came with the kitchen.
| Gritly wood pull out | Wire basket organizer | |
|---|---|---|
| FIT | Built to your opening in 1/32 in increments, uses the whole cabinet | Fixed sizes, dead space on both sides |
| FLOOR | Flat plywood bottom, nothing falls through | Wire grid, small items tip and fall |
| CAPACITY | Dovetailed corners and ball bearing slides rated for pots and pans | Light duty, sags under cast iron |
| LOOK | Sanded Baltic Birch or hardwood, matches cabinetry | Coated wire |
| INSTALL | Arrives assembled, slides pre mounted if you choose, screw and go | Clamps or screws to a shelf |
Where pull out drawers earn their keep
Base cabinets and pantry
Pots, pans, small appliances and dry goods roll out to you instead of hiding in the back. Deep cabinets stop being storage you forgot about.
Bathroom vanity and laundry
Cleaners, towels and supplies in a box that uses the plumbing gaps. Custom widths matter most here.
Closets, office and RV
Any cabinet with a door can take a pull out. RV and odd depth cabinets are exactly what custom sizing is for.
Pull out drawers for cabinets earn their keep anywhere a fixed shelf wastes depth: deep pantries, under sink bays and corner cabinets most of all. Reaching over a countertop or into a tall pantry? Add a scooped front edge so contents are easy to grab, or add soft close slides so a loaded pull out eases shut instead of slamming. See the drawer types we build for rollouts, trash pullouts and organizer inserts.
Pull out drawers for cabinets, sized to the opening
Pull out drawers for cabinets run from 6 in up to 35 31/32 in wide, cut to the 1/32 in instead of picked from a size chart. Side mount and bottom mount boxes come out to the opening minus 1 in, with 1/2 in of clearance on each side, so a 24 in opening takes a 23 in box. Only want pull out drawers in cabinets you already own, not a full remodel? Turning a cabinet into a drawer cabinet starts with that same measurement, and many kitchens end up with cabinets with pull out drawers in more than one bay.
Sliding drawers for cabinets
Sliding drawers for cabinets run on one of three kinds of hardware. A standard pull out cabinet drawer ships with side mount ball bearing slides already mounted, ready to screw to the cabinet sides. A custom pull out drawer for cabinet openings with bottom mount runners you already have is built box only, or the box can be notched and bored for an undermount runner, Blum, Würth, Grass, Salice and Hettich among them. Kitchen pull out drawers on all three mounts start from the same opening measurement; the slide sets the deduction.
| Side or bottom mount | Undermount | |
|---|---|---|
| WIDTH | Opening minus 1 in | Set by the slide maker, Blum, Würth, Grass, Salice and Hettich each publish their own |
| HEIGHT | 2 to 12 3/4 in | 2 to 12 3/4 in |
| DEPTH | 9 to 24 31/32 in | Whole runner lengths, 9 to 30 in by model |
Roll out drawers for kitchen cabinets
Roll out drawers for kitchen cabinets run from 2 in to 12 3/4 in tall. A box with walls of about 3 to 5 in usually works as a pull out shelf, the same build with lower sides; taller boxes are usually called drawers. Roll out cabinet drawers taller than about 6 in hold stand up items, tall bottles, cereal boxes, a stack of pot lids, without anything tipping over on the way out. Roll out drawers for cabinets of every height share the same dovetailed corners and the same slide choice, so picking a height really just means deciding what has to stand up inside it.
Slide out drawers for kitchen cabinets
Slide out drawers for kitchen cabinets work the same whether the opening already has a drawer front on it or just a door. Slide out cabinet drawers built to your own measurement do not need an old slide to go by at all, the width comes from the opening, not from whatever was there before. Many kitchens start with one or two pull out kitchen cabinet drawers near the stove or the sink before adding more. Want a low shelf in a cabinet you already own rather than a full drawer for kitchen cabinet storage? See slide out shelves for existing cabinets. For trash pull outs, sink drawers and the rest of the family, see pull out cabinet organizers.

Will be back!
We ordered new cabinet doors and drawer fronts for our drawers, without realizing the old drawer boxes could not be used… Quite the panic until we found Gritly! From start to finish, the drawer ordering process was super simple, and the drawer arrived quickly, 100% to spec. Will be ordering more!
Well Done
Exactly the size i ordered for a kitchen drawer. Dovetails definitely better than the original MDF drawer the house came with. A bit pricey - I thought at first - until I actually priced out making it myself. Cost of Baltic Birch plywood alone made it worth it to order online from here. Plus free shipping.
Solid Knife drawer
Really solid custom made knife drawer, 5/8” thickness, accuracy of cuts and fit with Blum slides installed easily. A few imperfections in finish but functionally huge improvement as retrofit over builder grade drawers
Just What I Needed
I've already recommended these to my neighbor. Dimensions were accurate and matched my cabinet perfectly.
Perfect Fit
These shelves fit my lower kitchen cabinet perfectly. The materials and workmanship are top-notch for these custom pull out cabinet drawers. Highly recommended!
Fast Shipping
Works just as described. No surprises. I'm not a pro, but this drawer was easy to get mounted.
Pull out drawer questions
Do pull out drawers come assembled?
Yes. Every box ships dovetailed, glued, sanded and assembled. If you order with slides, the slide hardware arrives already mounted on the box.
Will they work in face frame cabinets?
Yes. Face frame cabinets usually need the box sized to the frame opening and sometimes a spacer behind the slide. The printable measurement guides cover both face frame and frameless, and slide spacers close any gap.
What slides do you include?
Standard pull out sets ship with side mount ball bearing slides or bottom mount hardware depending on the size you pick. Custom boxes can be prepped for your own side mount or undermount slides, including Blum notch and bore.
How much do pull out drawers cost?
Standard sizes with slides included show their live price on the standard box with slides page. Custom sizes start at $46.99 before options and the price updates live as you configure. No quote wall, no login.
Are pull out drawers more expensive than a premade organizer?
It depends on the size, and you are comparing different things. A boxed organizer comes in a few fixed widths with gaps on both sides of the cabinet; a pull out built to your opening uses the whole width and height you actually have. Price the exact box you want on the product page before you decide.
Can I install a pull out drawer myself?
Yes. The box ships assembled, so installing a pull out drawer means mounting the slides to the cabinet and attaching the box to them, the same job as replacing an old drawer. A drill and a tape measure cover most cabinets; face frame cabinets sometimes need a slide spacer as well.
How deep can a pull out drawer be?
Up to 24 31/32 in deep without notching, or up to 30 in when the box is notched for certain undermount runners.
What is the difference between a pull out drawer and a pull out shelf?
Mostly the height of the sides. A pull out shelf has low walls, usually 3 to 5 in, so you can see in and reach over them, while a pull out drawer has taller sides for tall or loose items. Both run on the same slides and the same dovetailed box.
How do you install pull out drawers in kitchen cabinets?
Screw a pair of slides into the cabinet first, level and square to the opening, following the slide maker’s own sheet for your model. Then set the drawer box onto the runners and push it home. See how to install a replacement drawer box for the full walkthrough.
What are the best pull out drawers for kitchen cabinets?
The best pull out drawer is a dovetailed wood box built to your exact cabinet opening, not a fixed width kit that leaves a gap on either side. Gritly builds every custom pull out this way, in Baltic Birch or Hard Maple (Select Grade), with the slide prep done and the box assembled and sanded before it ships. Match the depth and slide type to what you are storing, not a generic size.
