I have the original built-in cabinetry and drawers in the dressing area between the master and mistress bedrooms. The drawers are relatively unusable because they are difficult to open and close. There is no open/close mechanism. The drawers are inserted into a cutout in the cabinetry. Can you recommend a carpenter who can upgrade the drawers so that they are usable?
A mistress bedroom? Does your wife mind?
I highly recommend a gentleman named Joseph Rene. He is a FANTASTIC carpenter who has done everything from building doors, putting in windows, and restoring original ceiling molding in my home. His number is 347-526-4627. Tell him Chris Montgomery from Decatur Street referred you.

Sometimes they just swell and need to be planed down or you can try dry soap. There may not be a need for modern hardware. Don’t forget people used draws this way for 300 years.
