Drawer

A drawer component for React.

"use client"

import * as React from "react"

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add drawer

Add the following to your global styles. On iOS Safari, the drawer overlay is absolutely positioned and requires a positioned body to cover the viewport after the page is scrolled. See the Base UI docs for details.

body {
  position: relative;
}

Usage

import {
  Drawer,
  DrawerClose,
  DrawerContent,
  DrawerDescription,
  DrawerFooter,
  DrawerHeader,
  DrawerTitle,
  DrawerTrigger,
} from "@/components/ui/drawer"
<Drawer>
  <DrawerTrigger render={<Button variant="outline" />}>Open</DrawerTrigger>
  <DrawerContent>
    <DrawerHeader>
      <DrawerTitle>Are you absolutely sure?</DrawerTitle>
      <DrawerDescription>This action cannot be undone.</DrawerDescription>
    </DrawerHeader>
    <div className="p-4">{/* Content here */}</div>
    <DrawerFooter>
      <Button>Submit</Button>
      <DrawerClose render={<Button variant="outline" />}>Cancel</DrawerClose>
    </DrawerFooter>
  </DrawerContent>
</Drawer>

Composition

Use the following composition to build a Drawer:

Drawer
├── DrawerTrigger
└── DrawerContent
    ├── DrawerHeader
    │   ├── DrawerTitle
    │   └── DrawerDescription
    └── DrawerFooter

DrawerContent composes the portal, overlay, viewport, and popup from Base UI. For lower-level control, DrawerPortal, DrawerOverlay, and DrawerSwipeHandle are also exported.

Custom Sizes

A vertical drawer sizes itself to its content and is capped at calc(100dvh - 6rem) by default. A side drawer spans 75% of the viewport width, or 24rem on larger screens.

To customize the height of a vertical drawer, use the h-* and max-h-* utilities on DrawerContent.

<DrawerContent className="h-[50vh]">

To customize the width of a side drawer, use the w-* and max-w-* utilities on DrawerContent.

<DrawerContent className="w-96">

When the same component renders in multiple directions, scope an override to one axis using the data-[swipe-axis=*] variants.

<DrawerContent className="data-[swipe-axis=y]:max-h-[50vh] data-[swipe-axis=x]:w-96">

To make a region of the drawer scrollable, make the scroll container a flex item. Avoid h-full, which does not resolve inside a content-sized drawer.

<DrawerContent>
  <DrawerHeader>...</DrawerHeader>
  <div className="flex-1 overflow-y-auto p-4">{/* Scrollable content */}</div>
  <DrawerFooter>...</DrawerFooter>
</DrawerContent>

Styling

The drawer exposes CSS variables for style-level customization. Set the sizing variables on DrawerContent. Set the overlay variable on [data-slot=drawer-overlay] in your CSS.

VariableDefaultDescription
--drawer-inset0pxFloats the drawer from the viewport edges.
--drawer-bleed-backgroundvar(--color-popover)Fills the gap behind the drawer on swipe overshoot.
--drawer-overlay-min-opacity0Minimum overlay opacity. Defaults to 0.5 when snap points are active.

The drawer also sets data attributes you can target with variants such as data-[swipe-direction=down]: on DrawerContent, or group-data-[swipe-axis=y]/drawer-popup: on its descendants.

AttributeValuesSet when
data-swipe-directionup, right, down, leftAlways.
data-swipe-axisx, yAlways.
data-snap-pointsPresentThe drawer has snap points.
data-expandedPresentThe drawer is at the full snap point.
data-swipingPresentA swipe is in progress.
data-nested-drawer-openPresentA nested drawer is open on top.

Examples

Position

Use the swipeDirection prop to set the side of the drawer.

Available options are up, right, down, and left.

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import {
  Drawer,

Swipe Handle

Use showSwipeHandle on Drawer to render a swipe handle.

"use client"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

Nested

Open drawers from inside another drawer. Parent drawers stay mounted and stack behind the frontmost drawer.

"use client"

import { useIsMobile } from "@/hooks/use-mobile"

Non Modal

Set modal={false} to allow interaction with the rest of the page while the drawer is open. Combine with disablePointerDismissal to prevent the drawer from closing on outside presses. Use modal="trap-focus" to keep focus inside the drawer while leaving scroll and pointer interaction unrestricted.

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import {
  Drawer,

Snap Points

Use snapPoints to snap a drawer to preset heights. Numbers between 0 and 1 represent fractions of the viewport. Numbers greater than 1 are treated as pixel values. String values support px and rem units. Snap points apply to vertical drawers.

Track the active snap point with the controlled snapPoint and onSnapPointChange props. At the full snap point, the drawer gets a data-expanded attribute you can style with the data-expanded: variant.

"use client"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

Responsive

You can combine the Dialog and Drawer components to create a responsive dialog. This renders a Dialog component on desktop and a Drawer on mobile.

"use client"

import * as React from "react"

Migrating from Vaul

The base drawer now uses Base UI instead of Vaul. If you installed the previous base drawer, update your usage to the Base UI API.

Update the dependency.

- npm install vaul
+ npm install @base-ui/react

Replace direction with swipeDirection.

Use down instead of bottom, and up instead of top. left and right stay the same.

- <Drawer direction="bottom">
+ <Drawer swipeDirection="down">

Replace asChild with render.

For DrawerTrigger, pass the trigger element to the render prop.

- <DrawerTrigger asChild>
-   <Button variant="outline">Open</Button>
- </DrawerTrigger>
+ <DrawerTrigger render={<Button variant="outline" />}>
+   Open
+ </DrawerTrigger>

For DrawerClose, pass the close element to the render prop.

- <DrawerClose asChild>
-   <Button variant="outline">Cancel</Button>
- </DrawerClose>
+ <DrawerClose render={<Button variant="outline" />}>
+   Cancel
+ </DrawerClose>

Update snap point props.

If you use snap points, rename the controlled snap point props and the sequential snap point prop.

  <Drawer
    snapPoints={[0.25, 0.5, 1]}
-   activeSnapPoint={snapPoint}
-   setActiveSnapPoint={setSnapPoint}
-   snapToSequentialPoint
+   snapPoint={snapPoint}
+   onSnapPointChange={setSnapPoint}
+   snapToSequentialPoints
  >

Update animation and focus props.

- <Drawer onAnimationEnd={(open) => setDone(open)}>
+ <Drawer onOpenChangeComplete={(open) => setDone(open)}>
- <DrawerContent onOpenAutoFocus={(event) => event.preventDefault()}>
+ <DrawerContent initialFocus={false}>

Review Vaul-only props.

Vaul props like handleOnly, repositionInputs, and shouldScaleBackground do not have one-to-one replacements in the base drawer API. Use Base UI props such as disablePointerDismissal, modal, snapPoints, or controlled open state for the behavior you need.

- <Drawer handleOnly repositionInputs={false} shouldScaleBackground>
+ <Drawer>
- <Drawer dismissible={false}>
+ <Drawer disablePointerDismissal>

Update custom data attribute selectors.

Replace Vaul's data-vaul-drawer-direction selectors with Base UI's data-swipe-direction selectors.

- <DrawerContent className="data-[vaul-drawer-direction=bottom]:max-h-[50vh]">
+ <DrawerContent className="data-[swipe-direction=down]:max-h-[50vh]">

Base UI also exposes attributes like data-swiping, data-starting-style, and data-ending-style for swipe and transition states. Descendants inside DrawerContent can use group-data-[swipe-axis=x]/drawer-popup and group-data-[swipe-axis=y]/drawer-popup for axis-specific styling.
