How can I properly install pull-outs?

When installing functional drawer runners, also known as drawer slides, precision is essential, as they ensure your drawers glide smoothly and effortlessly. Here are the basic steps to complete this task successfully:

  • Measure: Measure the inside of the cabinet to position the runner correctly. The runners must be placed identically on each side to ensure even load distribution.
  • Attach the runners: Secure the runner to the inside of the cabinet using the pre-drilled holes. Make sure they are aligned precisely. It is advisable to insert only one screw at first so you can easily adjust the position if needed.
  • Insert the drawer: Pull the runner out fully and insert the drawer. Secure it with the appropriate screws. Then open and close the drawer several times to check whether it operates smoothly.
  • Adjustment: If the drawer does not run properly, loosen the screws and correct the position of the runner before tightening the screws again.

During this process, patience is key. It is better to take enough time to ensure everything is mounted correctly than to end up with a drawer that is not fully functional.
