Custom machining for under-mount hardware
Western Dovetail was the first to offer custom machining for concealed drawer runners. Under-mount hardware requires precision machining such as notching and drilling and specific bottom placement. This company can notch, drill, and install locking devices for any major brand of under-mount hardware. The staff at Western Dovetail can help calculate the drawer sizes using the customer’s cabinet openings, combined with the hardware specifications to determine the required dimensions. Major brands of drawer slides are stocked in-house and can be shipped with the drawers including conventional side mount slides.


Drawer Tip
Any order can be specified as NATURAL, SELECT, or PREMIUM.
  • NATURAL is the standard grade for solid wood drawers and allows for natural color variation, some mineral and small closed knots.
  • SELECT jobs are hand selected to higher standards with no knots or stains.
  • PREMIUM drawers are carefully color matched and have no knots or stains, and minimal color variation, only the highest quality materials are used.
