Drawer Side Material Maple For Clean Builds

drawer side material maple is a Genesis drawer side blank designed as part of a drawer blank system, so it gives a consistent starting point for building multiple drawers in the same run. The piece measures 5 inches high by 96 inches long, which supports long or multiple drawer cuts from one blank while keeping material waste predictable. The drawer side uses veneer plywood construction, so you get a stable drawer component that works well in typical shop and jobsite environments where sheet goods are standard. The blank is 1/2 inch thick, aligning with common drawer side dimensions for many cabinet lines. Genesis supplies this in maple, which supports maple-front or maple-interior drawer programs when color coordination matters across a kitchen or casework job.

Key Genesis Drawer Side Blanks Advantages

• The Genesis drawer side blanks are veneer plywood, which gives a uniform substrate for machining and helps keep dados, grooves, and cuts consistent across a batch of drawers.
• The maple material on this drawer side supports maple-focused projects, so the interior appearance of the drawer aligns with maple cabinet cases or fronts on finished installations.
• The 5 inch height of the blank sets a repeatable drawer side height, so layouts for drawer fronts, slides, and clearances can be planned around a known dimension.
• The 96 inch length allows multiple drawer sides to be ripped from a single piece, which helps streamline cutting patterns and material use in a production setting.
• The 1/2 inch thickness matches a common drawer side standard, helping it fit into drawer programs that are already set up around half-inch construction.

Installation And Drawer Fit Details That Matter

This drawer side material uses a 1/2 inch groove, which is designed into the blank to accept a drawer bottom in a controlled way, so bottom panels seat consistently from drawer to drawer. All Genesis drawer blanks have a 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado, giving a defined slot size for 1/4 inch bottoms that speeds layout when cutting panels. The blanks are built with a 1/2 inch, or 13 mm, bottom reveal specifically designed for undermount slides, so drawer bottoms sit at a height that matches typical undermount slide geometry. A square edge profile on the blank keeps reference faces simple, which makes alignment against fences, jigs, and case parts straightforward during cutting and assembly.

Because the blank length is 96 inches, it supports cutting multiple matching drawer sides for stacked drawer banks from a single piece, which is useful when aligning grain and color in a run of maple casework. This Genesis drawer side is part of a high quality drawer blank system, so it fits into workflows where drawers are built from standardized blanks rather than individual custom-ripped strips. Other heights and species are available in the same Genesis line, which means this 5 inch maple size can be combined in a project with different drawer heights or different woods while staying inside the same construction approach.

Details That Support Repeatable Drawer Assembly

The veneer plywood construction of the Genesis drawer side material supports repeatable machining, so dado heads and groovers produce similar results across an entire batch of parts. The 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado built into every drawer blank gives a fixed reference for cutting 1/4 inch drawer bottoms, which helps keep bottoms consistently flush inside the groove. The 1/2 inch bottom reveal designed for undermount slides sets the drawer bottom location in relation to the slide hardware, so slide manufacturers specifications for bottom clearance are easier to follow when designing the drawer box. All wood blanks are pre-finished with Endura ultra violet cured top coat, so the drawer sides arrive with a cured finish that avoids a separate interior finishing step and provides a ready-to-assemble surface. The square edge profile on the blank simplifies clamping and squaring the box during glue-up, because each edge can act as a straight reference against clamps, tables, or jigs.
