Drawer Box Assembly Can Be Beautiful

Drawer box construction can be a time-consuming process—but it doesn’t have to be according to Lockdowel, a company that developed a simpler, faster method of building boxes. The Lockdowel construction method is being embraced by woodshops serving many markets including kitchen and bath cabinets, closet systems, and furniture. Lockdowel’s invisible fasteners use a simple assembly process that doesn’t require glue or clamps, and results in a clean and professional looking drawer box where no screw heads, fasteners, or staples are visible in the final product.

The Lockdowel system slides and locks fasteners into CNC-routed keyhole slots. The hidden aesthetics are important not only for drawer boxes, but for any finished product.

“One of our customers recently shared a memorable quote,” says Jason Howell, the CEO of Lockdowel. The President of Würk Furniture in Mississauga, Ontario, said ‘Anything we make that needs to be beautiful, we make with Lockdowel’.”

Howell continues, “Lockdowel customers consistently share significant decreases in assembly time, which translates easily into both labor savings and higher throughput.”

“Our fasteners also provide the ability to flat-pack and ship for onsite assembly,” he says. “This reduces shipping costs and allows easier material handling on the job. Imagine the time saved by taking an entire kitchen install up in one elevator trip.”

The company affirms other product advantages include reducing employee training time to under an hour and the ability to disassemble if needed.

Howell says, “Assembling drawer boxes has never been easier. With a simple modification to design, drawer components slide together perfectly, every time.”

Lockdowel’s One-Click drawer slides are often used in tandem with the company’s fasteners. Using the same tooling as the fasteners, the One-Clicks also slide-and-click into place with no screwing required.

The precision and simplicity of Lockdowel has made drawer box assembly a beautiful experience.
