After searching for hours this was the absolute BEST method I saw on YT that didnt require buying drawer jigs! Thank you!
Absolutely the best and easiest way to install drawer slides. I did one thing differently. Instead of cutting a board to get the wall space and height for the back bracket I used a piece of 3/4” wide trim piece to space the wall with a clamp at the height to rest the rail on. You made it way easier to install. Thanks again!
Put in a trash can drawer in our island. Its been giving her troubles for weeks. pilot holes critical . now she thinks I am a carpenter. I know that mind of hers is working overtime for something she wants...so I am hesitant to say thank you. seriously great instructions to the point. Thanks Friend
Thank you! Clear and concise instructions. I appreciate the home repair videos!
Thank you so much for this great tutorial! I'm installing all new drawer boxes with soft-close hinges, so explainging how to line them up on the new drawer boxes was very helpful. And the bracket to hold up the hinge to keep it level was a game changer!! 2 thumbs up!
Thanks for the cool tip on making a guide for mounting the slides inside the cabinet
After searching and viewing several videos, this is the first one that I've found that have cabinets built like mine. I also have that gap from the inside of the cabinet to the face frame. All the other videos I've watched have the rail mounted right against the inside of the cabinet.
So with that gap, I also have to use an End Bracket as you do at 4:51. And now with the "Oh duh, why didn't I think of that?" jig you made as shown at 5:02, I now the confidence that I can get this project done, and surprisingly easy at that. Thanks for taking the time to show us how to upgrade drawer slides. I sincerely appreciate it!
Follow up: Yup, turned out as expected. The jig made this a simple project. Quick and easy.
Bob’s Small Engines and Kitchen Remodeling...I love it!!! Great video Bob, Happy Holidays to you and yours!!
Hey Kenny, my real speciality is woodworking, but I do so much of it at work, that I do the small engine stuff at home.
Nice tutorial he made it simplier to understand how to set up things perfectly....max score.
Best and clearest video on installing these by far….many thanks 👍
Glad it helped
The question of the day is how happy that makes Mrs double wide as they happy wife happy life 👍
I believe it went something like this, "Of all the cleaning and mess in the house, I wish you would work on something that matters" Yes a sign of a great marriage:)
@@doublewide6 okay thanks for your reply oh by the way do you know what the size is the nut that holds the fly wheel on a opposed twin cylinder Briggs and Stratton enigne
The screws stripped out on the drawer and I could not figure out how to release the slide. You did it in the first couple minutes. Thanks for showing us how.
Great idea, looks like an upcoming project for me. Also wonderful to see the family involved!
Wow, the best explanation and instructions ! Thank you so much.
This is better instructions than what you get with the slide kit. You have to have 4 hands following those instructions.
Thank you! Very straight forward.
Thanks for posting. Just thought about doing this today!
That is an awesome upgrade to the drawers
Yes they are pretty nice and under $200
Very helpful video, thank you
Nicely explained. Thx Bud!!
Glad it helped!
Thank you for showing me how to release the drawer runner, just assembled a desk and didn't have clear instructions
HI, this is great, same sort of replacement thanks!
hope you and your family have a very merry christmas
Happy holidays!
Well explained
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!! Happy New Year!!!
Keep it up sir and more power to you channel...👏🤟
Great! Thanks. I didn't know where to start since I lost the instructions. This will work out great. I think I need more screws though? No?
Thanks for the instructional vidio. I installed the exact same ones. This vidio helped tremendously. However, I had trouble holding my screws to attach the bracket holders in the back. Since my screwdriver attachment on my drill wasn't magnetized I couldn't start the screw. I cut pieces of electrical tape approximately one inch and stuck the screws through it and folded the tape back and taped it to my screwdriver shank. Started my screw , then reach back and pull the tape off then finish tightening it. Hope this helps someone. No more lost screws.
That's actually quite a useful tool hack, I'll have to give it a go
Thank you
thank you!! :D
Oh so close to 100k subscribers
I ve looked at a lot of these videos and all of them assume installed cabinets are square and level. When installing these in existing cabinets it’s would be important to make sure rails are square with face frame, level, and both rails are parallel. This is important information for retrofit
Sugest me best adjustable wrench
I see that there are more holes in the end bracket that once you get the right position of the bracket you can add more screws to give it strength and holding power for heavy drawers.
Good👍
GREAT DEMO MY FRIEND .VERY NICE .FROM DOUG
Happy new year buddy thanks
And a very very happy New year's to you and your family my friend and thank you
Thank you for a clear instructions. Just wonder how strong these ball bearing slides are if they are installed only on one side of a tall narrow drawer. I have a cavity where I'd like to install a 24" by 24" and 6" deep cabinet that can be pull out for storage. I'd like to install two of these slides on one side of the cabinet.
I don't have these slides myself just yet, (I'll be getting mine in a few days,) but if you space your slides as far top and bottom as they can go, and if your contents aren't too heavy, that configuration might be able to work. Conversely, it might also be too heavy for the bearings' retainers and they could "pop out" from the lateral tension. Hope you let us know your workaround! 😊🌎✨
Great video Bob My wife wants to know when are you coming to install these on our drawers? LOL
Not sure yet. Maybe New Year's Day?
@@doublewide6 She said thats fine with her. LOL
Oh very posh.. good one bud..
Thank you kindly. These would work for a pull out work tray as they support over 100LBs.
Big improvement. How did the rest of the drawers go? Maybe you should ask for one those fancy drawer slide jigs for Christmas.
The rest of the drawers went well. I was one back bracket short because they came in packs of 5, so I cut a set in half and welded them for 2 drawers. Worked out perfectly.
I light that illuminated the back of the cabinet would have been helpful
You dont need any wooden jigs. Just measure and use double side tape to secure slide to the cabinet. Then screw it . Done
No. The rail sits away from the edge of the cabinet. It isn’t flush against the side.
Is my dad he is great subscribe
I noticed you had to pull a little bit on the drawer to open it. Is that because of the soft close mechanism?
The soft close mechanism has a spring you're fighting against so it might provide resistance the first 2 or 3 inches when opening. Think this is why he showed that you can remove it should you not like it
Have an issue with one drawer with this type of slide; it glides open by itself. Appears that the interior slide needs to be raised but how does one do this with the interior glide still in place? The drawer is in a tight corner next to the stove and is not easily removed or reinstalled. Can you advise, please?
you are going to have to remove the drawer to fix. You will get it.
My droor feels resistant and it struggles to close, I can't seem to fix it no matter how many time I try to pit it back in, what's more all the balls keep falling out!
5:50 to much power 🤣
HI
What size screws did you use please?
Those are specifically called cabinet screws
What SIZE screws shall I order? Ball bearing drawer slides often do not come with screws.. thanking you in advance
@@johnbies7041 #6 is typically the best size for this.
Installing same slides and tolerances are to tight, the old slides are a about a sixteenth inch narrower making it to tight.. have a fix?..
Only one fix….chisel a channel.
We jus gonna roll past that prt where he farted at 5:50? when he was first putting the track in the guides?
Well - pretty good video, however I wanted to see you get down on your belly and tackle that bottom drawer slide!! you missed the most difficult part of that upgrade!!! minus the cussing and groaning, if I had a little young lady she couldn't be in the same neighborhood by the time I get done with that install!! with all the cussing
