How do I Replace the Wood Front of a Molded Plastic Kitchen Drawer?
- 1). Open the drawer and locate the mounting screws inside the drawer box. These screws attach the drawer front to the plastic drawer.
- 2). Measure the overhang of the drawer front in each direction. This will allow you to place the new drawer front in the exact same position.
- 3). Measure and mark the overhang on the new drawer front. Mark lines where the drawer front and the drawer will meet on the drawer front.
- 4). Remove the old drawer-front screws from the molded plastic drawer with a power drill. Match the drill tip to the screw head securing the drawer front. Keep the screws.
- 5). Place the new drawer front into position. Align the drawer front on the plastic drawer according to the marks.
- 6). Fasten the drawer front to the drawer using a power drill.
