We are remodeling our kitchen and using old oak kitchen cabinets that a friend is getting rid of. One of the base cabinets with 4 drawers had 3 of the drawers damaged and were thrown out.
So we are looking to find some replacement drawers that match the existing cabinet drawers as close as possible in the edge shape and color. We currently think that an unfinished drawer would be best, so we can stain it to match.
Does anyone have any experience in where the best place to find replacement drawers would be? We are having a hard time. We've been to Lowes/Home Depot and they said they don't sell individual drawers and sent us to Menards. Menards will sell an individual drawer, but the tracks all under mount when we would need side mount (This is an option and we would just buy new side mount tracks). Also, only certain styles will come in unfinished oak. They also said that we have the option to just buy the front face of the drawer (with the edge profile similar to existing drawers) but then we would still need to get an actual drawer to attach the front face to. Would it be difficult to find/build a drawer to attach the face to?
Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated!

How do I determine the right drawer box size for my existing cabinets?
If you are replacing a drawer and using the same drawer slides, order the same dimensions as the drawer you’re replacing.
If you are replacing the drawer slides, you must follow the measuring instructions for the drawer slides.
Do your drawer boxes come assembled or unassembled?
Dovetail drawer boxes can be ordered unassembled or assembled. Dowel drawer boxes can only be ordered unassembled.
Can I order drawer boxes in custom sizes?
All of our drawer boxes can be ordered to your custom size.
Sizes for width, depth, and height come in 1/16″ increments.
The front and back boards of the drawer are split. I realize it can’t be fixed with old handy wood glue but can I find wood pieces to simple replace the broken boards or do I need to replace the whole thing?
I thought this would be an easy thing to find to buy or replace but a custom drawer box looks to be about $50. Trying to find a cheaper diy solution of wood, type, what and where to buy?
I want/need to replace a single drawer box in my kitchen (current cabinets are cheeeeeap builder grade. [I'm renting]). The drawer glide broke on my silverware drawer. I was just going to fix/replace it but, this drawer is in an extended depth cabinet, while the drawer box is only 14" deep. I felt this was a good opportunity to extend this drawer to at least get a little more silverware space- there's very limited drawer space in this kitchen.
I don't have a table saw or router. What's my best option? I was thinking a dovetail box would be best given it's a silverware drawer and will have some weight in it. Are there inexpensive 'hand tool' dovetail jigs? Do any lumber yards/home centers sell stock that's maybe pre-tailed? I've tried googling for replacement drawer boxes but, those options all seem to be closer to $100+ in addition to shipping.
Are there any options that would allow me to do this for closer to $50-ish? Not including slides/rails, I'll buy and install appropriate slides separately. Is there an inexpensive drawer box option I'm overlooking? Or am I just going to have to just buy a Harbor Freight router and dovetail jig?
The current drawer is 22" W x 14" D x 4" H Was thinking of trying to do a 22" W x 22" D (ish) cabinet depth is: 26.75" from inside-back to face frame.
Drawer face is full overlay, so I should be able to attach it to basically any box. Also plan on buying full extension slides with a weight rating appropriate for the drawer+contents.
I've got a kitchen drawer that needs to be completely replaced (it's missing). My google-fu is not up to snuff though. Where can I get a drawer that will match my existing?
