Custom Made, Solid Wood Drawer Boxes

Dovetail drawers require a different type of construction than standard kitchen drawers, and are usually regarded as a higher quality drawer option for homeowners. The difference between dovetail drawers and other, more traditionally constructed drawers, lies within the type of joint used in dovetail drawers. The type of joint constructed for dovetail drawers is known as a ‘locking joint.’ The dovetail ‘locking joint’ is constructed from wedge-shaped channels cut into the wood, that interlock with one another from either side of the drawer, creating a box. The wedge-shaped pieces are called ‘tails’ and ‘pins,’ and provide a very strong joint that is quite resistant to force once the two sides are assembled. The dovetail joint is so strong that oftentimes when a drawer breaks, it is not at the point of the joint. Not only is the ‘locking joint’ itself strong, but the joint’s surface is large enough to offer an unusually large area for gluing. Glue is stronger than wood, and therefore the more space that is available for gluing allows for an even stronger drawer box. The advantages of dovetail drawers are in the construction of their joints. They offer a stronger drawer, with a larger holding capacity. While these drawers are associated with a higher quality drawer, this is not always the case. There are many options for drawer construction, and picking the correct drawers for your kitchen cabinets should include strength and storage.

DRAWER HANDLES

WOOD TYPES USED IN THE MANUFACTURE OF DRAWER BOXES

We manufacture drawers from high quality solid wood: maple, beech, ash brown, ash white, American walnut, birch, oak, smoked oak. Drawer sides can be made from 13, 14, 15 mm thick wood panel. For bottom we use 6 mm or 9 mm MDF covered from both sides with natural wood veneer.

MAPLE

LIGHT
EVEN PATTERN
EXPERIENCE REQUIRED FOR PROCESSING

Widespread throughout Europe, America, the Far East. It is a very light, slightly yellowish wood. Often used in contrast to dark wood. A distinction is made between European maple and Canadian maple. Special care is required when drying maple wood, as maple has a tendency to crack.

BEECH

HARDWOOD
FLEXIBLE
DECORATIVE

Beech is most common in Central and Western Europe, most commonly found in mixed forests. Beech wood is moderately heavy, strong and durable. Pink shades, strength and high abrasion resistance are the strongest properties of Beech wood.

ASH BROWN

STRONG
BRIGHT PATTERN
WARM TINT

Brown ash is widespread throughout Europe, grows mainly in mixed forests, Brown ash wood is strong, insensitive, stable and therefore has little shrinkage, similar to oak.

ASH WHITE

SOLID
BRIGHT PATTERN
IMPACT RESISTANT

Ash grows mainly in Central Europe. Light, yellowish and expressively textured wood, difficult to process, low shrinkage, insensitive. Very hard and even slightly stronger wood than oak.

WALNUT

LUXURIOUS
DURABLE
ANNUAL WRINKLES DARK OR WAVY

Walnut is one of the most valuable wood varieties. It is often used to manufacture decorative furniture or furniture parts, and musical instruments. Wood has shiny appearance; heartwood can range from light to dark brown, and sapwood is creamy white. Growth rings are straight or wavy. Walnut wood gets lighter in color over time. Wood is stable, durable and has good shock resistance, but is not as hard as oak.

BIRCH

REFUELING
MEDIUM DIFFICULT
BRIGHT PATTERN, PINK TINT

Light brownish-brown, almost white wood. Bright pattern, pink hue, medium-heavy and strong wood. Birch is one of the most widely used types of wood for furniture. Similar in price to maple or oak.

OAK

CLASSICS
DURABLE
HUMIDITY RESISTANT

Oak is widely distributed in Europe, Asia, and America. It has been used for the manufacture of furniture since ancient times. Color is a beautiful tan, with conspicuous growth rings. Wood is strong, elastic, durable and resistant to external impact. Oak wood undergoes a long drying process and tends to crack in drying, so working oak requires experience and skill.

SMOKED OAK

MODERN
ELASTIC
BRIGHT PATTERN

Ammonia smoke is a wood-finishing process that darkens wood and brings out a grainy wood texture. This process works best on white oak, often called "smoked oak".
