OldSaw OldSaw writes: I recently finished a similar project. My cabinets are certainly not as elegant as those featured here, but I did wrestle with the same question you asked about drawer height. In the end, I decided that having short sides on the lower drawers would only invite the loss of tools off the sides, whereas drawers with full height sides could be used to full capacity. It has turned out to be a good choice.

HenrySr HenrySr writes: Baudi, I made the deeper drawers tall enough to not allow the tools stored in them to fall out the back or side. The lower drawers are deeper but are not as deep as the front. the deep ones are 9" the shallower ones are full depth.

Hope this helps, Good luck with your project!
