I've been a licensed remodeling/additions contractor for almost 40 years. However, when I had to repair/replace a set of glides, on MY OWN DESK, in my office, I realized I had some questions about rail alignment (for the cabinet) and rail placement (for the drawer). I bought some new "full retraction" drawer glides, and the instructions were so basic, they were useless. I watched 8-10 videos here, on You Tube, and found your's to be the most informative. I'm in the business of "explaining" things, to homeowners AND my employees, and it was nice that you not only demonstrated HOW to install, but WHY to do it, in a particular way. Thanks !!

Awesome video! I recently had a drawer slide fail on a deep, heavy kitchen drawer with 22" full-extension slides. I am no carpenter, and was puzzled by how to install the glides on the cabinet itself, to get even gaps all around the drawer face, consistent with the rest of the cabinets. Richelieu's instructions were useless to me, but I watched your video twice, and the job came out perfectly. I learned with inches and fractions, but switched to primarily metric 20 years ago, when my job demanded accurate measurements. Thank you Bent's!

I am so interested in Rockler stuff, however most of it is imperial if not all of it. Also a lot of the US KZbin channels I follow (Jay Bates for example and you Jason) only offer their build plans in imperial.

When I started woodworking I made more errors with the imperial system. I had issues with fractions and reading the tape measure. Metrics are sooo much easier to work with. Add, subtract, multiply, divide, and reading the tape measure got easier. Just use whole numbers, and call out whole numbers, millimeters is understood. I learned from a European, nobody calls out decimeters or centimeters, they just say 1100 minus 900 = 200. BAM you're done. Very accurate and easy.

Gary E. I grew up in Europe with Metric. I got used to imperial in Architecture (my profession) but for woodworking I switched back to metric. I my original home country metric is used like that: Architects: 2.54 means 2meters 54 centimeters. Under one meter you just write 54 for 54 centimeters Wood working: Joiners and cabinetmakers work in centimeters so for them it is 254 means 254 centimeters, When the need fractions of a centimeter (millimeter ) it is written 254.6. And spoken you just would say 255 6 . Steel workers think in millimeter. So for them the above measurement would be 2546 meaning 2546 mm. Hopefully not too confusing ..... :)
@billlay48156 жыл бұрын
Love your videos and your approach! I've been using K&V slides and the cabinet member installs 2 mm in from the front of the cabinet (frameless), which aligns it perfectly with Euro-style/System32 cabinets. And then the drawer member installs 3 mm back from the front. The net effect then is that your drawer sits about 1mm proud of the cabinet, which is perfect for an overlay drawer front. I didn't realize how important this was when I was doing inset drawers. But with overlays, you need that extra 1 mm for the drawer to have enough travel to fully slide in and engage the detent that holds it shut. Otherwise the drawer front blocks it from sliding in fully. For an inset drawer I had better results with the drawer member installing closer to flush. This is all well-documented in the Knape & Vogt install sheet ... which I only glossed over and then couldn't figure out why my drawers wouldn't push in far enough to engage the detent. Need that 1 mm sitting proud!

One thing I'd like to add here for fine-tuning. While plywood is supposed to be flat and straight, I'm amazed just how many times a cabinet side will bow. With full extension drawer slides, this can create a real nightmare as the fit is pretty exacting. For a simple 16th of an inch a washer behind your mounting screw can really help to fine-tune the slides so they don't bind. If the cabinet is an eighth of an inch off (not that uncommon) when plywood bows, I found putting a stretcher bar in the center of the cabinet with some pocket holes helps to pull the sides in. If the bow is inward, the stretcher bar just pushes it out. Usually you can hide it underneath the bottom of the drawer. This brings up the next point of making your drawer a bit smaller in height than the drawer front. All this assuming a cabinet without a face frame, and side mounted slides as shown in the video.

It may be worth a mention that the use of elongated holes are best advised for the less confident BUT ONLY until you are happy with the smoothness of runners and accuracy of fit THEN also employ the circular holes to “LOCK” the rails in position, if you don’t then they will move esp if you have a missus that rams it full. Another good idea to fit the drawer rails is fit the whole three sections of rails in the cupboard as excellently show on the vid then put a 3mm or so spacer (for clearance) under the drawer to be fitted - position drawer then eeek out drawer and rail (each side) and as soon as a screw hole shows pop a screw in each side then pull out some more and repeat (supporting front of drawer so it won’t sag)......hopefully that will give you a well aligned rail and free flowing.

Thank You for this educational video... I watched it just in time and as a result an awkward complex job for me ..... went swimmingly.

Great demonstration. Metric is so simple. No wondering what comes after 27mm, or any number. What comes after 19/32ths? 5/8ths I think....

Great video, I'm going to make some under floor drawers for my van, so this video had some good tips. I've got a 12v bosch impact driver that is perfect for this kind of work, very compact, yet still powerful.
