Genesis Durawrap 96" Drawer Side 7", White, BSC178W

Drawer Side Materials For White 7 Inch Drawers

Drawer Side Materials 1/2 Thick from Genesis is a 7 inch high, 8 foot long drawer side blank designed for building drawer boxes in a consistent, repeatable way. The 1/2 inch thick construction defines your drawer wall thickness so mating components can be planned accurately. The vinyl Durawrap material is 8 mil thick and non-flammable, so the surface provides a durable, uniform face while addressing standard non-flammable material needs in typical shop environments. The core is made of high density particle board, which gives greater screw holding strength and supports solid fastening of drawer fronts and slides. All wood blanks are pre-finished with the Endura ultraviolet cured top coat, so the surfaces arrive ready to assemble without additional finishing steps on the job. The blank length is 8 feet, allowing multiple drawer sides to be cut from a single piece for efficient layout and reduced setup time.

Key Drawer Side Details That Support Builds

• The 7 inch drawer side height sets a consistent profile, which simplifies planning drawer storage layouts and aligning drawer fronts across a run of cabinets.
• The 1/2 inch thick construction defines a stable drawer wall, which helps maintain squareness and provides a predictable thickness for slide clearances and joinery.
• The vinyl Durawrap 8 mil non-flammable surface creates a uniform white finish, which eliminates separate surfacing steps and keeps interior drawer appearance consistent from piece to piece.
• The high density particle board core increases screw holding strength, which supports secure attachment of drawer fronts, slides, and other fasteners into the drawer sides.
• The 8 foot blank length allows multiple drawer components to be cut from one blank, which supports efficient cutting patterns and reduces material handling during production.
• The square edge profile provides a straight reference, which aids in accurate alignment at corners and simplifies fixturing in saws and assembly jigs.

Installation And Joinery Details For Drawer Sides

These Genesis drawer side blanks are built with a 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado, which establishes a fixed groove location so 1/4 inch bottoms can slide into place without layout on every part. The 9/16 inch, or 14 mm, bottom reveal sets the distance from the bottom edge of the drawer side to the drawer bottom, which helps maintain consistent clearance above drawer runners and cabinet floors. All drawer blanks have this same dado and reveal detail, so mixed heights from 2-3/4 inch through 10 inch share the same bottom position for straightforward stacking in a job. The pre-finished Endura ultraviolet cured top coat on all wood blanks means the drawer interior is ready as-machined, helping keep assembly focused on cutting and fastening rather than finishing.

Using These Genesis Blanks In Drawer Construction

Where These Drawer Side Blanks Are Applied

Genesis drawer side blanks in this 7 inch by 8 foot, white configuration are used as the vertical sides of drawer boxes within drawer construction systems. The drawer side heights ranging from 2-3/4 inch through 10 inch mean this product line can support shallow utility drawers through deeper storage drawers using the same construction approach. The 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado running the length of the blank serves as the track for a 1/4 inch bottom panel, so the panel engages the sides consistently from front to back. The 9/16 inch, or 14 mm, bottom reveal locates that panel slightly above the bottom edge, which provides space for clearance over runners and for any typical cabinet floor variations.

The high density particle board core used in these drawer side blanks is selected for greater screw holding strength, so fasteners driven into the drawer sides can bite firmly without excessive splitting. This is important where drawer slides and drawer fronts are fastened into the side, because repeated opening loads are carried through those joints. The vinyl Durawrap material at 8 mil thickness wraps the core with a uniform white surface, giving the finished drawer a consistent appearance on all exposed interior faces while also providing a protective layer over the core.

Why These Construction Details Support Repeatable Results

The combination of a fixed 1/4 inch drawer bottom dado and a 9/16 inch bottom reveal across all Genesis drawer blanks creates a standardized drawer geometry, which helps drafters, CNC programmers, and bench assemblers work from the same assumptions job after job. Because all wood blanks are pre-finished with the Endura ultraviolet cured top coat, finishing variability is removed from the process, so color and sheen remain consistent even when drawers are built at different times.

The square edge profile on these drawer side blanks gives a straight, clean reference for fence setups and assembly jigs, which supports accurate 90 degree corners and reduces rework from misaligned joints. The 8 foot blank length supports cutting multiple sides in sequence from a single piece, improving yield when laying out runs of drawers within a project. Vinyl Durawrap as a non-flammable surface aligns with standard shop material expectations, so drawers built from these blanks integrate smoothly into woodworking workflows that rely on predictable, rated materials. The availability of other heights and species within the same Genesis drawer side program allows shops to maintain one construction method while still meeting varied visual and dimensional requirements.

Common Questions About Genesis Drawer Side Blanks

Selecting This Genesis Drawer Side For Your Project

The Genesis Drawer Side Materials 1/2 Thick, 7 inch by 8 foot white blank offers a standardized 1/4 inch bottom dado, 9/16 inch bottom reveal, and square edge profile, which supports consistent drawer geometry from layout through assembly. The high density particle board core with vinyl Durawrap 8 mil non-flammable surface and Endura ultraviolet cured pre-finish brings both strength and finished appearance into one component. For projects that call for drawer side heights between 2-3/4 inch and 10 inch, this drawer side blank aligns with a broader Genesis drawer construction system, allowing shops to build multiple drawer sizes from a coordinated family of parts.
