OVERVIEW
Fits Every Drawer Type
Eliminate dangling cords and device clutter by adding a Blade Series outlet into any new or existing drawer. Docking Drawer's most versatile in-drawer outlet, the Blade can be installed in shallow, tall, narrow, and vertical drawers, mounts left- or right-facing, and can mount vertically or horizontally. Wherever you need hidden power, there is a Blade configuration that fits.
Most Popular Applications
- Bathroom vanity drawers: Keep your hair dryer, straightener, and electric toothbrush plugged in and ready for use, eliminating countertop clutter.
- Narrow drawers: Blade outlets can be installed into drawers as narrow as 9" by cutting a channel in the cabinet or by utilizing under-cabinet space. Learn more here.
- Office drawers: Power a printer on a pull out shelf, or create a dedicated charging zone for phones and laptops beside your desk.
- Appliance pull out drawers: Run a blender or other small appliance from inside an open kitchen drawer, keeping small appliances out of sight and freeing up valuable kitchen counter space.
Smart by Design
Blade Series outlets combine USB-C (PD), USB-A, and AC in flexible configurations that connect up to four devices, from phones and laptops to hair tools, printers, and small appliances. Its compact design fits every drawer type, while interchangeable outlet modules allow you to upgrade later as charging technology advances, making them a future-proof and enduring solution.
Simple to Plan and Install
Blade Series outlets work with shallow, tall, narrow, and vertical drawers, and are designed to fit into the standard 2" of space behind the drawer box, or as little as 1.25" with the use of a Spacer, in both standard and custom cabinetry. Every package includes detailed instructions, a cutout template, and all necessary screws, and installation requires only a few tools and basic DIY skills.
Safety & Code Compliance
All Blade outlets are ETL Listed for the US & Canada and feature an interlocking thermostat that cuts power at 120°F to prevent overheating. Premium all-metal construction is verified through rigorous cycle testing and backed by our industry-leading 5-year warranty.
Ensure NEC compliance (2023 edition):
- Kitchen, bathroom, and other drawers: Any Blade Series outlet is NEC compliant in all drawers except those in kitchen islands and peninsulas.
- Kitchen island and peninsula drawers: USB-only configurations (Blade 1514-180 or Blade Duo 1514-288) are allowed.
PROJECT PLANNING CHECKLIST
How to Plan Your Blade Project
Use this simple checklist to confirm drawer fit, choose the right power configuration, and plan your Blade installation with confidence.
Choose Your Room and Drawer Type
Start with where the Blade will go. The Blade fits all four drawer types: Shallow, Tall, Narrow, and Vertical. Vanity drawers and appliance pull-outs are typically tall, office and printer drawers are often shallow or vertical, and narrow drawers are common in pre-assembled vanities or alongside ranges and sink bases.
Verify Drawer Measurements
Measure the outside width (OD) of the drawer box. Installation requires 2" of space behind the drawer box, or 1.25" by adding a spacer.
- Shallow Drawer: At least 15" of outside drawer-box width and 3" of interior height
- Tall Drawer: At least 13" of outside drawer-box width and 4" of interior height
- Narrow Drawers: Fits drawers as narrow as 9" wide by applying our narrow drawer installation technique.
- Vertical Drawer: At least 8" of outside drawer-box width and 13" of interior height
| Drawer Type | Min Drawer Box Width (OD) | Min Interior Height |
|---|---|---|
| Shallow drawer | 15" | 3" |
| Tall drawer | 13" | 4" |
| *Narrow drawer | 9" | 4" |
| Vertical drawer | 8" | 13" |
*The Blade fits drawers as narrow as 9" wide by applying our narrow drawer installation technique.
Determine your Power and Configuration
- For hair tools and small appliances, prioritize AC outlets.
- For an office charging drawer, combine AC with USB-C (PD). Choose 65W USB-C (PD) for compatible laptops and larger technology, or 30W USB-C (PD) for phones and tablets.
- If you're looking to connect even more devices, check out our Blade Duo outlet which supports up to 8 device connections.
For most projects, 15 amp is the standard choice. Choose a 20 amp Blade outlet when the device or specified circuit requires it.
