This Docking Drawer Safety Interlock Outlet brings 15-amp power into a drawer and cuts it automatically when the drawer closes, using a blade limit switch to control when the circuit is live.
Conventional in-drawer outlets stay live whether the drawer is open or closed, which puts an energized outlet inside an enclosed space. The safety interlock changes that. The blade limit switch reads the drawer position: when the drawer opens, the circuit completes and the outlet powers up. When the drawer closes, the circuit opens and the outlet goes dark. Appliances or chargers plugged in while the drawer is open lose power automatically when the drawer is pushed shut, which removes the risk of a live outlet sitting unattended inside closed cabinetry. This is particularly useful in kitchens where hair tools, small appliances, or chargers are stored in the same drawer where they are used.
The outlet is finished in white and is rated at 15 amps, matching the standard circuit load for kitchen and utility drawers. It belongs to the Blade Duo series and requires the blade limit switch for operation. This interlock outlet is designed exclusively for Blade Duo outlet systems. It will not function as the activation switch for other Docking Drawer series. Confirm that your existing or planned Docking Drawer installation is Blade Duo before specifying this component.
This outlet fits cabinetmakers, designers, and remodelers who are building or upgrading a Blade Duo in-drawer power system and want the drawer-open safety interlock as part of that installation. It is a strong specification for kitchen drawer stations where small appliances or personal-care tools are stored and used in the same location, and where leaving a live outlet inside a closed drawer is a concern. It also suits bath vanity builds where the same use pattern applies.
No. This safety interlock outlet is built for the Blade Duo series and uses a blade limit switch for activation. It is not compatible with other Docking Drawer outlet lines.
NO stands for normally open. The switch is open by default, meaning the circuit is off when the drawer is closed. Opening the drawer closes the circuit and powers the outlet. It is a fail-safe configuration: power is only present when the drawer is actively open.
The source data does not confirm whether this component includes GFCI protection. Consult the Docking Drawer Blade Duo installation documentation and your local electrical code for GFCI requirements at the installation location.
No. The interlock cuts power when the drawer closes regardless of whether something is plugged in. Any connected device loses power until the drawer is opened again.
Specify this safety interlock outlet to bring controlled, drawer-activated 15-amp power into a Blade Duo installation, so the outlet is live only when the drawer is open and dark the moment it closes.
