Calculates and draws drawer front heights based on basic inputs and several equations. Useful for comparing layouts to find the most pleasing sizing. Web app can be viewed at https://dcreith.github.io/drawerfront/.
Values output assume inches and show to the nearest 1/16th. If you want to calculate in metric then use the decimal output and ignore the values in parenthesis.
The bottom drawer has a height of [(square root of 2) – 1] times the drawer width. The second drawer from the bottom has a height of [(square root of 3) – (square root of 2)] times drawer width. The nth drawer has a height of [(square root of n+1) – (square root of n)] times drawer width. Each drawer height calulated as a percentage (ratio) of the previous drawer starting with the bottom drawer. Each set of two drawers calculated as 1.618 based on the lower drawer (includes rails). Each drawer height is reduced by a fixed amount from the lower drawer. Enter each drawer height individually.Enter the difference between each drawer, empty values are ignored.
