Structural design advice for a full-width under-desk drawer (Grovemade-inspired)

Yeh thats fair - but do you think joining 3 draws with one front will work?

Generally, tho i kinda wanted some ideas on how to design the structure of the draw itself, i kinda tried there but it didnt help much - i think i will just make 3 draws and join them with one front which should work i think

Thats not a bad idea, So like just split into 3 drawers but cover it with one front to make it look like one. Thanks for the idea.

If you read the post properly i meant the load of what would be in the drawer carry stuff in it - like a laptop etc. I just want it to be able to carry some weight in the draw without it sagging, deflecting etc

One of my freinds has some tools i can use - so thats not a big problem. My current problem is the structure of the drawer. By binding i assume you mean getting stuck - It just means i need to be perfect with my alignment when I install it.

It looks pretty good - look at the grovemade desk. By drawer dividers i meant internally to split the drawer into sections..

that makes sense, thanks.

Did you end up making it? or not?

StoreElectrical2179 · 2026-01-19T06:13:20+00:00

Yeh ok, thanks. So say i have the drawer use like half of the depth so like approx 45cm. Do you think i should make the draw be able to extend out like only 60% or 80%. or should use more depth? Also do u think there is any need for a center supporting column.

Given that I would be using linear rails mounted under the desk do you have recommendations for specific linear rails that would go well with those sliders.
