Abstract
A drawer structure including a front end, a rear end and the side walls, the front end having a panel front and a crossbar in which a gap between the panel front and the crossbar permits the insertion of an insert or the passage of a fabric material whereby a basket may be secured in a drawer frame. Where a fabric material is passed between the panel front and the crossbar it may be wrapped around the crossbar and inserted into an inward facing recess of the crossbar whereby the material may be secured by the tension applied by the weight of the basket causing a crossbar clip to splay and prevent the fabric from being dislodged from the recess.
