Genesis Durawrap 96" Drawer Side 4", Black, BSC102BK

Genesis Drawer Side Blanks For Drawer Builds

Genesis drawer side blanks use 1/2 inch thick material, which gives a solid drawer side for typical cabinet drawer construction where strength and consistent thickness support smooth operation. The vinyl Durawrap material is 8 mil thick and non-flammable, so the exterior face is protected while also addressing basic flame-resistance needs in shop and residential cabinet environments. Each blank has a core made of high density particle board for greater screw holding strength, which supports secure attachment of fronts, backs, and guides in woodshop production or on-site work. The black finish provides a uniform appearance along the drawer sides, helping match darker interior schemes. All wood blanks are pre-finished with an Endura ultraviolet cured top coat and are ready to assemble, which removes separate finishing steps and keeps workflow focused on cutting and assembly instead of coating.

Drawer Side Details That Support Daily Work

• Each blank measures 4 inches high by 8 feet long, giving continuous stock that can be cut into multiple drawer sides from a single piece and simplifying layout for standard and deeper drawers in a run.
• All drawer blanks have a 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado, so the drawer bottom sits in a consistent groove and alignment is maintained from drawer to drawer without separate dado milling operations.
• A 9/16 inch (14 mm) bottom reveal is built into every blank, which controls how much side shows below the drawer bottom and helps keep drawer proportions and clearances visually consistent across a bank.
• Blanks have a square edge profile, allowing straightforward joins to fronts and backs, and making it easy to reference edges against fence and stop setups during cutting and assembly.
• Blank lengths are 8 feet, which supports efficient cutting patterns for multiple cabinet widths and depths while reducing offcut waste on typical kitchen and bath layouts.

Installation Geometry And Drawer Side Fit

All drawer blanks have a 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado, so the groove for the bottom panel is already sized and located, removing a machining step and helping the bottom register consistently during glue-up. The 9/16 inch bottom reveal allows the drawer bottom to sit above the lowest edge of the side, which helps protect the bottom panel edge during use and supports clearances over runners or cabinet floors. Blanks have a square edge profile, so joints at the front and back meet cleanly without special profiles, which is useful when building boxes on jigs or simple fixtures. The 1/2 inch thick material maintains a familiar side thickness that works well with common drawer bottom thickness choices and standard cabinet layouts.

Using These Drawer Side Materials In Projects

Where These Drawer Side Blanks Are Applied

This drawer side material is designed as a drawer side blank in drawer construction systems, so it fits directly into workflows where sides are ripped, cut to length, and then assembled into drawer boxes. The 4 inch height works for many standard drawer applications, while drawer side heights from 2-3/4 inches through 10 inches are available in the product line, supporting shallow top drawers and deeper storage drawers within the same project approach. The black vinyl Durawrap surface gives a clean look for drawer interiors or sides visible when drawers are open, aligning with modern or dark-toned casework. The pre-finished Endura ultraviolet cured top coat means these wood blanks are ready to assemble, so they move from rack to saw to bench without waiting for finish curing in a busy shop setting.

Details That Support Consistent Drawer Construction

The core made of high density particle board is engineered for greater screw holding strength, which supports repeated removal and reinstallation of drawer fronts or hardware adjustments during fitting. The 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado keeps the drawer bottom located in the same plane from box to box, which is important when aligning multiple drawers in a stack or matching bottoms to specific runners. The 9/16 inch, or 14 mm, bottom reveal creates a predictable offset from the bottom of the side to the bottom panel, helping maintain clearance above cabinet floors or slide hardware. Blanks have a square edge profile, simplifying layout when using stops, mitre gauges, or fences, because each edge references uniformly without shaping. Blank lengths of 8 feet allow multiple sides to be pulled from each piece following a consistent cutting schedule, which supports repeatable results in cabinet runs or production batches.
