Learn how to design cabinets and cabinet drawers to accommodate modern hardware, and how to select and install drawer glides from the wide range of available sizes and features, including kinds of mounting, weight limits, soft closing, push-to-open, and adjustability.

You'll learn basic design principles associated with cabinet drawers and hardware, gain hands-on experience measuring and installing drawer glides on simple cabinet mock-ups, and learn how to adjust the hardware. 

Although we'll focus on the hardware, not how to construct cabinet boxes, you'll learn how to size cabinets to work with different kinds of drawers, and how to select hardware for specific cabinet dimensions and desired features.  You'll learn about and use hardware installation jigs to simplify installation and achieve the precision required for cabinets to work well.
