The performance and durability of your custom cabinetry rely heavily on the drawer boxes chosen. Westwood Cabinetry Kelowna offers four distinct, precision-engineered options: the reliable Atira standard, the enhanced Antaro, the sleek, high-capacity Legrabox, and the classic Plywood Dovetail. Each option features soft-closing technology and high load capacities, ensuring your cabinets function flawlessly for decades.
When designing a beautiful kitchen, most attention goes to door styles, finishes, and countertops. But the true measure of a custom cabinet's quality, durability, and longevity lies in the components you use every single day: the drawer boxes.
At Westwood Cabinetry, we believe that quality is built from the inside out. The drawer box dictates how smoothly your storage operates under load, how quietly it closes, and how many years it will last without maintenance. This is why we offer a curated selection of drawer box options, engineered for superior performance and tailored to your specific needs and aesthetic preferences.
We provide four distinct options, each designed to deliver exceptional performance and high carrying capacities:
Atira Drawer Box - Standard: The reliable foundation. This system uses powder-coated, soft-closing, bottom-mounted metal sides with a double metal bearing suspension system. It offers full extension and is engineered for a load capacity of 25kg. (Note: Standard 520mm vanities feature a 470mm depth.)
Antaro Drawer Box - Upgrade: A step up in performance. This upgrade features powder-coated, soft-closing, metal full extension slides using a double metal bearing and suspension system. It has a standard load capacity of 30kg, increasing to 65kg on drawers wider than 39 inches. (Note: Standard depth is 500mm.)
Legrabox Drawer Box - Upgrade: The ultimate in sleek, modern design. Available in Grey or White, this soft-close system is impressively slim (just ½" thick) and performs outstandingly even when fully extended. It boasts high carrying capacities of 40kg on 6" H drawers and 70kg on wider drawers. For a truly high-end look, it pairs perfectly with Orion Grey melamine interiors. (Note: Standard depth is 550mm; vanities are 500mm depth.)
Plywood Dovetail Drawer Box - Upgrade: This classic option is made with ½" Birch Plywood using dovetail construction, available for cabinets from 10 ½" W up to 42" W maximum. It uses the highly reliable Movento Runner System and is engineered with a standard capacity of 40kg and 60kg on wider drawers. (Note: Standard depth is 550mm; vanities are 500mm depth.)
Choosing the right drawer box depends on where it will be used. A Legrabox or Plywood Dovetail is ideal for heavy-duty storage areas like large pot drawers (handling that 60-70kg capacity), while the Atira provides excellent performance for cutlery and lighter utensils. All options guarantee smooth, soft-closing operation, protecting your cabinetry and providing a premium feel.
Your cabinets should work as hard as they look good. Invest in the right foundation to ensure performance that lasts decades.
