My drawers in the kitchen and bedroom slide on metal in and out.
They connect to the wall using a piece of plastic.
This plastic part breaks every 6 months or so and the drawers are all cockeyed. I have replaced these &*%$ things for 10 yrs and I am sick of it.
HELP ME, what can I use to stop this problem ?
Don't tell me to replace the cabinets, not in the budget.
Thanks
JCat,
Just wondering, I've built quite a few cabinets in my life and, I'm not sure I've ever seen "metal on metal" drawer slides. There are cheap ways of sliding a drawer on a face frame of a cabinet, like those little "L" shaped pieces of plastic tucked into the lower corners for the drawers to slide on. Those are even used in some of todays homes.
But, pictures of what you have would be cool. I've converted to roller glide ones in the past too. But, one thing here. If you do something to make your drawers glide better or roller glide them, make sure you consider any type that keeps them closed while in transit. You surely don't want any of them "gliding" open while in transit. Good luck.
