Which Side Should You Edge Band Drawer Fronts First?25

As a professional edge banding strip manufacturer in China, we are often asked about the best way to edge band drawer fronts. While there is no one-size-fits-all answer, we can provide some general guidelines to help you make the best decision for your project.

The first thing to consider is the type of edge banding you are using. If you are using a pre-glued edge banding, you will need to apply it to the inside of the drawer front first. This will ensure that the glue does not get on the face of the drawer front and that the edge banding is securely attached.

If you are using a non-pre-glued edge banding, you can apply it to either the inside or outside of the drawer front. However, we recommend applying it to the inside of the drawer front first. This will help to prevent the edge banding from chipping or peeling off.

Once you have applied the edge banding to the inside of the drawer front, you can then apply it to the outside. Be sure to use a sharp knife or edging machine to trim the edge banding flush with the edge of the drawer front.

Here are some additional tips for edge banding drawer fronts:
Use a sharp knife or edging machine to trim the edge banding flush with the edge of the drawer front.
If you are using a pre-glued edge banding, be sure to apply it to the inside of the drawer front first.
If you are using a non-pre-glued edge banding, you can apply it to either the inside or outside of the drawer front, but we recommend applying it to the inside first.
Be sure to use a heat gun or iron to melt the glue and adhere the edge banding to the drawer front.
Allow the edge banding to cool completely before trimming it flush with the edge of the drawer front.

By following these tips, you can ensure that your edge banded drawer fronts look professional and last for years to come.
