Hickory Hardware Bottom Centered Drawer Mount,Not Compatible with Side Mount Drawers,Heavy Duty Center Drawer Slide for Cabinet & Dresser Drawers,Easy Open & Soft Close Glide Track,16 Inch,P1029/16-2C

Great product at a good price. I'm restoring an old dresser and one of the guides was missing. The dresser is old enough that I was unable to buy the original type of center/bottom guide that came on it. I was concerned that updated parts wouldn't work but I gave it a shot anyway. I ordered the part using their sizing guide and it worked perfectly!

The media could not be loaded.  We converted an antique buffet to a bathroom vanity. The drawers were hard to open and not stable when open. These glides made them work like new! Last night, our 36 month old grandson opened them with one hand. Guess we will have to keep an eye on him! The only issue we had was separating the two pieces of the glides for installation. My hubby and I literally had to grab each end with something to keep our grip from sliding and then pull like crazy! Installation was fairly simple.

I am satisfied with it. I used it for kitchen counter drawer. It slides smoothly, much better than the older one. Installation may require additonal works, depending on the configuration of the kitchen drawer. In my case, I have to add a piece of wood to elevate the front end of the bottom of the slider. The bottom edge of the existing drawer has elevated side, that is with a gap of +/- 3/8". If you don't have the right tools/equipment, it could be frustrating. I am DIY and have a miter saw and table saw and several other electrical tools.

Easy to install and work great on my clothes dresser 7 drawersreplaced the old bottom wooden slides.

I bought two 20" center mount slides to update the drawers in a 70-year-old, built-in bathroom vanity. In the case of the first unit, the slides were nearly impossible to separate for installation. But, I was able to complete the installation. Unfortunately, I would like to "tune" the edge spacers to eliminate wobble, but I can't extract the drawer from the track.The second unit install was worse. Separating the slides required a rapid jerk, but they eventually came apart. Sadly, after mounting the slides, the bearing cage bent, folded, collapsed and failed when I attempted to install the door. Yep, the little balls came loose. Unlike a good slide, with a leading edge taper on the inner slide, these have a sharp, square edge. On the upside, the failed bearing assembly, allows you to remove the drawer from the cabinet, but it's a bit wobbly.I contacted the company for help, via their webpage, but they didn't respond. I'll buy a better brand and return the broken parts to Amazon for refund.Update: After removing the Hickory slides I made a few measurements. According to the directions, the slides are 3/8" thick and intended to be mounted on a drawer bottom which is recessed 1/4" above the drawer's side edges. That leaves a 1/8" clearance between the drawer side edge and the cabinet frame. The proved edge bumpers/glides, to be mounted on the cabinet frame, are at least 5/32" tall, which is more than the available clearance. On name brand slides of this type, which I have since installed, the edge bumpers/glides are nominally 1/16" tall, allowing a small clearance between the drawer edge and bumper. In the case of the name brand slides, the drawers move freely.UPDATED: 5 March 2023 - I bundled both of the failed slides and returned them to AMAZON. Sadly, I failed to notice that AMAZON sent me two separate return labels. So, now, AMAZON thinks I only returned one and there's no way to communicate with AMAZON on the matter.So, not only a poor product, but supported by poor service.

Maybe these are easier for actual cabinets, but i found them very hard to install in a nightstand. If you don’t already have a center support, don’t bother with them. I had to make a center support within the nightstands I was trying to put them in. Spent 2 hours just getting one installed. If stores close by had center under mount drawer slides i would return these. When they are installed they slide great, but god forbid you have to remove a drawer. I nearly broke a drawer trying to get it out. Maybe it’s all use error, but better off just getting the wooden slides in my opinion.

Glad I took time to read reviews with some details. Pulling the track apart for installation had me nervous I'd break something - don't worry. Pull repeatedly in the direction it slides and it will release. Some skill and proper tools may be needed to install. If it works as is in your unit, great! Mine was a Young American chest of drawers. I needed to shim under the track and cut the wood opening wider at the receiving end of the drawer. Easy once I realized what needed to be done but I have construction background and the tools to make it easy. The drawer side rail extended a couple inches too far it seemed and expected to trim it but tried putting the drawer in first and it was fine.

Used two of these to make my reel to reel tape player slide out. It is in a cabinet under the TV.These are great. Yes, you do have to jerk a couple of times to separate the two parts.Does come with the rear adjustable bracket, which I did not need.My steps. 1. Used the holes in tape case that were previously for rubber feet.2. Drilled holes in upper bracket to mount to tape player. Attached upper brackets to tape player.Made sure they were in alignment.3. Put on lower brackets.4. A screw in each in back to hold in place and now have a tape player that slides out.Could not find a slide out tray and these was cheaper.

I read the reviews for these and was hesitant to order them based on some people's experiences but my old wooden slides in my kitchen drawer cabinet were so bad I figured I would take a chance. I also couldn't find any other non-wood options on amazon or elsewhere for bottom centered drawer slides in the length I needed so it was either this or I would have to continue living with drawers that were hard to pull out, constantly jammed, or went back in crooked. I ordered just 1 at first to try out and then figured I would either return it if it was as bad as some of the reviews were saying, or order the remaining 3 I needed. I ended up ordering the other 3 after I installed the first one and although they're not perfect they are light years ahead of the wooden slides I had before.When the first one came I was able to seperate the 2 parts without any issues. It took a bit of a hard tug but nothing crazy like some people in other reviews experienced. It was just a straight hard tug. Maybe some people pulled it in the wrong direction? It only comes apart one way in the direction that your drawer will pull out. I took off the old wooden slide part on the drawer itself and installed the new metal slide part using 1 screw at the front and 1 at the back. I didn't remove the old wooden slide part from the drawer cabinet though. Doing that would have lowered the drawer from where it was before and caused an awkward gap. I measured before I did this and realized that the old wooden slide part attached to the drawer was roughly the same height as both parts of the new metal slide, so removing the slide from the drawer but keeping the old slide part in the cabinet would ensure roughly the same height. As an added bonus, keeping the old wooden slide part in the cabinet also allowed me to more securely attach the new metal slide part in multiple spots. If I did remove it then the new metal slide would have only been secured at the very front and very back of the cabinet as the drawer cabinet I have doesn't have a bottom between drawers. I only screwed the new metal slide to the bottom of the cabinet but an additional detachable part is supplied which also allows you to attach to the rear of the cabinet. I didn't use this though because there wasn't enough length to reach the back but even if there was, this back part lifts the slide up slightly which would mean that there could potentially be some jamming issues because of not enough clearance.When I put the drawer in I noticed a few things. First of all the amount the drawer could come out was amazing. I ordered the 20 inch size even though my drawers (46.5cm 18 1/4 inches) were on the top end of the recommended size for the 18 inch size sand I definitely made the right call getting the bigger size. The drawer came out with only around 10 cm / 4 inches hidden in the cabinet. There was very little sag as well when the drawer was fully extended. Just a very slight amount that didn't look like it was causing a huge amount of strain on the slide. It's been installed for over 4 month now and the sag hasn't increased even though I pull the drawer out to it's limit multiple times a day. Opening and closing the drawer was much smoother with the metal slide and comparing it to my other drawers it was night and day. Even though it was much smoother though there was some resistance right when opening the drawer. I realized that it was because my old drawer slide wasn't installed perfectly straight and my drawers were also not perfectly straight. Now that the new slide was installed installed perfectly straight, it was slightly rubbing the side of the cabinet. I sanded the side of the drawer though and the resistance went away. Now I just need to paint the part I sanded. Nothing was rubbing anymore and even though the drawer slid much more smoothly than before it wasn't as smooth as other drawers in my place that had slides on the sides. That makes sense to me though because only 1 slide is carrying all the weight and it's based off a much simpler design than most slides that go on the sides and have features such as soft close which these slides do not have even though it says so in the description. Drawers with these slides need to be pushed all the way in and won't close by themselves softly near the end.Based on my experience with the first 1 I ordered I bought the remaining slides I needed and followed the same process when installing. I did encounter a few more issues which required sanding so I recommend that if you do feel some resistance you check if there is rubbing anywhere. For one of the drawers I noticed that the rubbing was at the top of the drawer. There were no other issues besides this though. I was able to separate all of them with not much effort.I'm very happy with these as my drawers now work much better than before. They slide much more smoothly, they don't jam or go in crooked, and there is no danger of someone pulling the drawer out completely anymore. I wish they were even smoother but again based on it being a single slide I'm very happy with them.

Replaces worn out wood on wood drawer slider. Traditional wood sliders and track were 1inch thick where these are 1/2" thick. Had to McGuyver full length spacer to bottom of drawer to attach slider but laid out track as is to bottom of cabinet. Depending on the way your drawer was constructed, installation requirements will differ.

Retrofit to old drawers, Slides decently well.. Better than what it was

Product as advertised. quality built
