Custom Drawer Box CTs & CIs

Offer Neat Storage & Display of Cutlery Inside Your Custom Size Drawers

 

Cutlery Trays & Inserts

To compliment our line of custom drawers, we also manufacture cutlery trays & inserts made to fit the specific dovetail drawer box.

CUTLERY TRAYS (CT)
We manufacture our CTs with full height sides and dividers that we make of matching species.  We offer twelve (12) standard layouts to accommodate most storage needs and custom drawer box widths.  However, if a standard divider layout does not suit, we will be more than happy to work with you to achieve the exact layout to meet your customer’s needs.

CUTLERY INSERTS (CI)
We also offer CIs, which we designed as “nearly-stock” units with a fixed height and fixed divider spacing.  The bottom extends beyond the outer left & right dividers and is trimmed to fit the specific custom size drawer box.  As a result, CIs offer a 10-15% savings when compared with CTs.  We offer twelve (12) standard divider layouts to accommodate most storage needs and custom drawer box widths.  However, if a standard layout does not suit, custom designs may be achieved in the CT program.

Custom CTs & CIs provide the finishing touch to make your cabinetry stand out.  View our selection below, then reach out for a quote on your next job!

Stacked Cutlery Tray, Slides

Stacked-Cutlery-02_slide

The stacked cutlery tray system consists of a cutlery tray on top (that rolls back) and fixed drawer box dividers mounted to the bottom of the drawer, running front to back. When the drawer box is pulled open, the cutlery tray is on the top; which can then be pushed back to expose the divided spaces below the cutlery tray.

The stacked cutlery tray (Slides) is designed to fit inside a custom drawer box using side mount drawer slides. It is constructed the same as the “Cutlery Tray” with the following exceptions;

  • The bottom of the drawer box has fixed dividers that run front to back.
  • The height of the cutlery tray is fixed at 1-5/8”.
  • The height of the fixed dividers is dependent on the overall height of the drawer box.
  • The width of the cutlery is 1-1/16” less than the inside width dimension of the drawer box (the drawer slide would require at least 1/2” of clearance on each side of the cutlery).
  • The drawer slides are not included with the cutlery tray, they would have to be purchased through your slide provider.


Stacked Cutlery Tray, Groove

The stacked cutlery tray (Groove) is designed to fit inside a custom drawer box using a groove to slide in. It is constructed the same as the “Cutlery Tray” with the following exceptions;

  • The bottom of the drawer box has fixed dividers that run front to back.
  • The height of the cutlery tray is fixed at 1-5/8”.
  • The height of the fixed dividers is dependent on the overall height of the drawer box.
  • The width of the cutlery is the same as the standard “Cutlery Tray” (there is approximately 1/16” clearance on each side between the cutlery tray and the drawer box).
  • Drawer slides are not required for this design.

Cutlery Inserts

Cutlery Inserts (CI) are a price point product that are 10 to 15% less than the Cutlery Trays (CT).

Cutlery Inserts are fixed designs that are made to fit inside a custom drawer box (the bottom of the insert is custom cut to fit the drawer box). They can be removed and have some bordering sides. The fixed designs vary based on the width of the drawer box. See the drawings below to determine which designs go into each width range. Inserts from Susquehanna Valley Woodcrafters are constructed as follows;

  • Some borders.
  • Dividers are 3/8″ thick, with eased top edge.
  • Dividers are 2-1/4″ high (fixed height), for a total unit height of 2-1/2″.
  • Bottom is 1/4″ thick matching plywood (Lenga & American Whitewood use a birch plywood bottom).
  • The minimum depth for CI-1 thru CI-6 designs is 15”. If a cutlery insert is less than 15” front to back (depth) it will automatically be converted to a CI-1B thru CI-6B design.
  • Designs are fixed, based on the width of the insert.  Custom designs can be accommodated in the Cutlery Tray program.
  • Dimension ‘V’ is Variable.
