Drawer Sound Effects

Drawer sound effects for all the ways a drawer opens and shuts. Smooth metal runners and sticky old wooden ones, slid quietly or slammed hard, from office desks to kitchen units. Then the rummaging, hands digging through whatever's inside for the thing they need. Small sounds. They do a lot of quiet work, telling you what a room is made of.

A drawer says a lot about a room. A metal filing drawer says office, while a wooden one that sticks says old house. The libraries here record plenty of both, opening and closing at different speeds, sometimes with the contents shifting inside. Games use drawers as loot sounds, so there are rummage sets where a character searches drawers and bags for something useful. Household foley puts them next to the Cupboard and the Wardrobe, and the Kitchen sets add cutlery drawers, so a whole home can be built from matching recordings. Thrillers use the slow, careful open when someone's snooping. Comedy gets the slam.
