There are many ways to install drawer faces and most include using a spacer to get perfect alignment. I opted to print mine last time I did this and it worked out.Included are 3/32" and 1/8" spacers.Some tips:For high end work, I like 3/32" (2.4mm) reveals. It looks better than 1/8" but isn't too tight to get right either.For stacked drawers (e.g. drawers on top of each other), you need to leave the spacers in on the drawer faces already installed. Otherwise the drawer face you are installing will flex adjacent ones and you'll get misalignment.Start spacing from a solid reference, and work away from that. That may be a block on the ground, or from the top of the cabinet/unit.Use some painters tape to tack the spacer to a corner of a drawer face to prevent it from falling off.Pre-drill holes in the drawer boxes ahead of time, and use a few pieces of strong doubled sided tape to temporarily adhere the drawer face when aligning. Then open the drawer, clamp, predril
