Drawer Front Installation Clamps

Say goodbye to the frustration of aligning drawer fronts. The CUPSOL Drawer Front Installation Clamps make it easy for anyone to achieve a perfect, professional finish. Designed by a South African entrepreneur and cabinetmaker, Frans Jooste, this simple but effective tool will save you a lot of time.

With the drawer slides and drawer box already installed, start by extending the drawer out. Place the ‘L’ clamp on the left and the ‘R’ clamp on the right side of the drawer box. (Fig 1)

Tighten the rear clamps to hold everything securely in place. (Fig 2)

Next, slide the drawer front into the clamps and adjust it so that it lines up perfectly with the surrounding drawer fronts. Once aligned, tighten the front clamps to lock the drawer front in position. (Fig 3)

Now, fasten the drawer front from the inside of the drawer box for a secure fit. It’s that simple! (Fig 4)

Inset Drawer Front Installation Clamps

Perfectly aligning inset drawer fronts just got easier. With the Inset Drawer Front Installation Clamps, you can achieve flawless, professional results every time.

Begin by extending the drawer box from the cabinet. Attach the clamps with the ‘L’ clamp on the left and the ‘R’ clamp on the right side, then tighten the rear clamps to hold them securely. (Fig 4)

Next, use the included Allen Key to loosen the screws on the top of each clamp. Adjust the clamps so that the side of each one touches the inside of the cabinet carcass. Tighten the screws back down for a snug fit. (Fig 5)

Now, slide the drawer front into the clamps, aligning it with adjacent drawer fronts. Once you’ve positioned it perfectly, clamp the front to hold it securely in place. (Fig 6)

Finally, fasten the drawer front from the inside of the drawer box. The clamps hold everything firmly, so you’ll have a precisely aligned front every time. (Fig 7)

Function 2:
Perfectly position hinge base plates with 5mm holes. Place the jig’s contact point against the cupboard ceiling, then drill using the baseplate template. Mark the drill bit with tape to avoid drilling too deep. (Fig 10)

    Cam & Dowel Jig

    Introducing the CUPSOL Cam & Dowel Jig—your essential tool for precise, efficient woodworking.

    Start by setting the correct drill bit depths using the provided stops to ensure accurate and consistent results. With the CUPSOL Jig, installing Cam & Dowel inserts is a straightforward process. Align the jig for perfect 50mm spacing, ensuring both parts fit seamlessly.

    First, clamp the jig securely onto your workpiece. (Fig 17)

    Use a 15mm drill bit to create the first hole. (Fig 18)

    Switch to an 8mm drill bit for the second hole. (Fig 19) Finally, use a 5mm drill bit for the third hole, (Fig 20) ensuring alignment with the side panel of your cabinet. With these steps, your parts are ready for assembly. (Fig 21)

    Need to switch tasks? Easily swap the 5mm and 8mm guides. The jig’s spring-loaded guides allow for fine adjustments, providing flexibility and precision. (Fig 22)

    For dowel installation, adjust the stops on the 8mm drill bits to control the depth. Clamp the jig, drill with the preset 8mm bit, (Fig 23) then repeat on the other piece. The two pieces can now be glued together. 

    Advantages of the Cam & Dowel Jig

    • Simplifies cam and dowel installation with precise alignment
    • Adjustable stops and spring-loaded guides for flexibility
    • Saves time and ensures accurate results
