Sheet

A side-placed overlay panel for navigation, drawers, and contextual actions.View source →

Side

Use the side prop to control where the sheet appears. The left and right values are aliased to start and end for RTL support.

Start (Left)

Default position, slides in from the left side.

tsx

<Sheet.Content side="start">
  <Sheet.Title>Navigation</Sheet.Title>
  <nav>Menu items</nav>
</Sheet.Content>

End (Right)

Bottom

Slides up from the bottom. Common for mobile action sheets.

tsx

<Sheet.Content side="bottom">
  <Sheet.Title>Actions</Sheet.Title>
  <div>Action buttons</div>
</Sheet.Content>

Sizing

Sheet reuses Dialog's sizing system but removes the default maxWidth clamping, allowing sheets to take custom widths.

Fixed Width

Set a specific width for the sheet.

tsx

<Sheet.Content side="end" width="320px">
  <Sheet.Title>Fixed Width</Sheet.Title>
  <div>Content</div>
</Sheet.Content>

Responsive Width

Use responsive objects for breakpoint-specific widths.

  <Sheet.Title>Responsive</Sheet.Title>
  <div>Content adapts to viewport</div>
</Sheet.Content>

Min/Max Constraints

Control size boundaries.

tsx

<Sheet.Content side="end" minWidth="200px" maxWidth="500px">
  <Sheet.Title>Constrained</Sheet.Title>
  <div>Content with size limits</div>
</Sheet.Content>

Material

Use the material prop to set sheet appearance. Choose solid for opaque backgrounds, or translucent for depth and separation over images or dynamic backgrounds.

Theme

Sheets automatically inherit the theme's material setting.

tsx

<Theme material="translucent">
  <Sheet.Root>
    <Sheet.Trigger>
      <Button>Open</Button>
    </Sheet.Trigger>
    <Sheet.Content side="end">

Custom

Override the theme's material for specific effects.

tsx

<Theme material="solid">
  <Sheet.Root>
    <Sheet.Trigger>
      <Button>Open</Button>
    </Sheet.Trigger>
    <Sheet.Content side="end" material="translucent">

function ControlledSheet() {
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
 
  return (
    <>
      <Button onClick={() => setOpen(true)}>Open Sheet</Button>
      <Sheet.Root open={open} onOpenChange={setOpen}>

          <Sheet.Description>This sheet is controlled externally.</Sheet.Description>
          <Button onClick={() => setOpen(false)}>Close Programmatically</Button>
        </Sheet.Content>
      </Sheet.Root>
    </>
  );
}

Accessibility

Sheet provides comprehensive accessibility through Radix Dialog primitives.

Required Label

Always provide an accessible name via Sheet.Title or aria-label on Sheet.Content. A development warning appears if neither is provided.

tsx

{/* Using Sheet.Title */}
<Sheet.Content side="end">
  <Sheet.Title>Settings</Sheet.Title>
</Sheet.Content>
 
{/* Using aria-label */}
<Sheet.Content side="end" aria-label="Settings panel">
  {/* Content without visible title */}
</Sheet.Content>

Keyboard Navigation

Escape - Closes the sheet
Tab - Moves focus to next focusable element within sheet
Shift + Tab - Moves focus to previous focusable element

Focus Management

Focus is automatically trapped within the sheet when open
Focus moves to the first focusable element when opened
Focus returns to the trigger element when closed

Screen Readers

role="dialog" with aria-modal="true" on content
Title associated via aria-labelledby
Description associated via aria-describedby when present
Overlay prevents interaction with content behind
