Measure the cabinet opening height (inside frame to frame) and subtract at least 1/2” from the opening height.

Drawer depth or height is not critical, but the most common difference between the drawer and the opening is 3/4 inch.

This allows 1/4 inch at the bottom where the slide is attached, and 1/2 inch at the top for clearance.
