Durham Difference

Under-Mount Soft-Close Drawer Guides

Superior drawer construction includes under-mounted, soft-close drawer guides that allow for adjustments up and down.

Built To Last

Cabinet corners are braced with blocks that are screwed and glued in place to add rigidity and prevent racking. Mortise and tenon joints are also present where parting rails exist.

Lift Assist and Fitted Backs

All Durham Furniture Cases are constructed with Lift-Assist, making it easy to move your furniture. A flush wooden back panel is framed by the top, sides and bottom to provide an added structural strength to eliminate racking and ensuring a fully enclosed case.

Protective Finish

The clear coating that is a part of our finishing process will help resist most household liquids for up to 24 hours. Spills or watermarks should always be removed as soon as possible using a soft damp, non-abrasive, cloth and then buffed dry with a soft dry, non-abrasive cloth.

Dovetail Drawer Construction

An English dovetail joint connects the drawer front and back to the drawer side. It remains tight and snug after thousands of pulls. Each drawer features 7/16" solid hardwood side and back with a 3-ply wood bottom. sanded and sealed with coats of clear finish.

Graduated Drawers

Many of our storage dressers and chests have drawers that increase in size as they go down in the case providing more capacity for larger items.

Mirror Mounting

Each mirror capable case piece is pre-drilled at the factory to insure easy, secure mounting in the home.

Floating Panels

Raised panels on doors, sides and beds, "float" within the frames on "Spacing Balls". This allows for natural expansion and contraction and prevents cracks, splits, warpage and rattles. 

Rail And Bed Slats

Solid wood bed rails are finished to match the bedroom suite and shipped with all beds. Included are solid hardwood slats, fitted for stability and support legs with adjustable feet where applicable.

Hook and Pin assembly for most beds make putting your Durham Bed together an easy task, and no tools are required.
