Thank you so much for taking the time to help us. Thanks for sharing your talent and video, Rodney
perfect timing on drawer slides for me. thank you. I am fixing to chose the drawer slide configuration for my granddaughters desk and needed this info. Dan Mottesheard here
Thank you so much for this video. Extremely informative for me, someone who wants to install them and needing to determine which one is best choice for my project. Big thanks!
We purchased an older home that, I kid you not, has a major issue with every drawer - from kitchen to bathroom. One set in the kitchen is exactly like the example you made here in the video, with each drawer having a different style of runner. I was feeling really overwhelmed on which runner to use where. You explained everything so well, and now I have a better understanding of what to use when and where. Much appreciated!
Great video explaining & showing the difference. Thank you
Excellent, easy to follow presentation. The Aussie accent grabbed me straight away. It’s great to have things explained with local flavour 😊
This literally answered every question I had about drawer runners. Well put together and well explained. Thank you very much. 😀

That is a great explanation on different types of rails. Exactly what I was looking for in regards to my new business venture. Very well done.
That was the ultimate version of the. Physical application of all types of slide
Thank you very much.
Wow
I have just fitted a bunch of them in my workshop H45 runners a bit over the top i didn’t need them to carry a massive weight., i just push to open saves me installing handles or knobs. interesting video many thanks.
Great video - very helpful. Many thanks from the UK.
Very good idea to have made this video for a dummy Like me about the subject .now I will be able to pick up the right one for my project .👍
Thank you so much for such an educative video. That was really helpful.
Brilliant video. I’ve been wondering if there was an under mounted runner available - now I know. I just have to try to hunt some down in the UK. Many thanks.👍🏻😎
Very good narrative. Enjoyed!, Thanks
It's nice to see an aussie woodworking channel. Always informative. Very nice production qualities also. You know, it would be nice to see the camera, mic and lighting set up you use some time.
Hi Tony! Thanks for your kind comments. We try to create videos which are not only informative but also professionally presented, lit, shot, and edited. Some of our videos actually do have a sneak peak behind the scenes. We use a variety of lighting setups depending on the location and the nature of the video. Some have employed only natural light and others are lit entirely with LED panels. There are sometimes as many as four cameras in use, and LED lighting is the most common light source. A Rode microphone on a boom provides the sound.
There are plenty more videos to come Tony, so stay tuned! Thanks again for your kind comments.
It's a pleasure - keep up the good work.
Great video. Thanks. Straight and to the point.
Great vid, informative. I would like to know if its possible to retro fit the undermount runner to an old silky oak chest of drawers?
UA-cam Just put your video
up and thanks, thank you very
much. It's information on these runners i needed to have clarified on whats better for my projects uses. Thanks
again. God Christ Bless😉🏁👍😀🏁
Thanks Edgar. Very much appreciated.
Wish i had seen this vid earlier. Just built a murphy bed with a chest of drawers attached. Took me ages to decide which runners to use. Think i made the right choice in the end though. I chose the medium range full extention runners
Hi David. Sorry we were late! :-) But yes, you made an excellent choice it appears. Thanks for your kind comments!
Very well done. This helped me a lot. Thanks.😎😎😎👍👍👍
thank you so much,i have some idea when saw your clips
Thank you for that! Helped tremendously!

Thank you! This video has exactly what I was looking for.
Happy we could help
Thank you for excellent review
This answer all my questions and curiosity since I want to upgrade my kitchen😊😊😊
Great vid, I'm trying to put some drawers into an old caravan cabinet. Do you have instructions on how to measure up and put together some drawers for an existing cabinet?
Very informative. Thank you. Subscribed. Cheers!
Thanks for your kind comment. We are glad you enjoyed and benefited from this video. And hey! Thanks for subscribing!
Thank you. Excellent video.
Thanks William. Much appreciated.
Cheers for the info mate.
Thanks you so much for such a nice vedio. Very good effort and informative.🙏
Great reviews!
Thanks for this detailed information.
Glad it was helpful!
I want to make a bigger drawer for a kitchen rubbish bin. I think the Heavy duty ones will do, but do I mount them at the top or bottom or half way or does it even matter?
Any ideas?
Very informative video.
Is it possible to install the soft closing runners in a groove? Have a chest of heavy drawers that runs on a groove and wooden guide rails. The gap on either side is just 5mm, so the soft closing ones wouldn't fit right away. I was thinking of widening the groove with a router and be able to accomodate most of the new runners within the groove. Have no woodworking experience whatsoever so pardon my stupidity if thats happens to be the case.
Learning to build kitchen cabinets so great to see this👍👍👍👍 im Learning 😎😎😎
We'll we are happy to help.
Thank You for the information
Thank you Nina. You are very welcome.
This may be a dumb question but... can the heavy duty slides be used for a door application rather than a drawer? I want to make a half high dog door for my basement stairs and thought of using slides instead of hinges. The opening is 30in so i was thinking of getting 32in full extension slides for some wiggle room. Will this work? I didn't know if the door will fall off since it's not being contained by the cabinet.
I could see the under mount soft close runners.
Great video!
Thanks! This helped me a great deal
There are other restrictions aren't there ie drawers can't be wider than the actual drawer slide to work properly. Is this the case for all drawer slides, because the ones I recently bought does have that limitation, which I didn't know about, until I read the instructions. Are there drawer slides that can be used for very wide drawers, but with a shallower depth? (depth, as in measurement of drawer from front to back)
Any better for frameless vs framed carcasses or does that make no difference?
I have the cheap white ones, the DRS-450. I want to replace them. What are my options? My kitchen drawers are wide and get heavy.
Can you do a swap between draw runner #1 and either draw runners #3 or #4 without changing the size of the draw? Do have a video for this and if not could consider making one or recommending one? Thanks and a great video…I’ve been looking for Aussie for a while.
Great informative video.
Thanks Tim. Always nice to hear that we are getting it right. Much appreciated mate!
Thanks, useful 👍
I have an undermount put in early 20s. I need a part to hold the glide that I cant find. Look at several online store. No luck. Any solutions to fix this draw
AWESOME! THANKS!
If I have bottom mount draw runners which need to be replaced can I change them out for middle position HD runners?
My question is how to disconnect so the whole drawer can come out. Think the ones similar to what I have were the 3rd and 4th drawer. They seem to have a plastic crescent that does not seem to have a mechanism to release so the cabinet can completely slide out. I need to retighten the screws on the right rail that came loose and only way to get to it is remove the entire drawer. There has to be some release mechanisms I am not seeing. Have some others that have a little lever that push up or down depending on which side of the drawer you are releasing. However, I cannot find or see the lever on the bigger cabinet drawer slide. Suggestions? Help please . Thank you
Helpful vid! Thanks dude
Thanks Andzejs. You are very welcome! Be sure to subscribe. There are plenty more helpful vids where this came from! :-)
i would use only the third glide, soft close dont last, and the last glide shown take an inch of space from the depth of the drawer. just my opinion after installing thousands of drawers.
Thanks Dan. Your experience is very much appreciated.
DAN KOLLARS ,
Any suggestions on retrofitting an old china buffet that has a center under mount track ??
I would like to install full extensions.
Any tips thanx.
I agree with skipping the soft close. Standard close open with a fingertip and close well. Soft close need to be yanked open.
Is there different sizes on the heavy duty one? I'm looking for for full extension.
Awesome video 👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks Orange Ninja! Glad you enjoyed it!
I have a confusing question.
I wanted to setup a sliding table underneath my desk for my musical keyboard. I already have a table, but the only wood on it is on the surface(the sides are rectangular metal pipes).
I wanted to ask. Is it possible to mount a drawer runner underneath the wooden table. My keyboard is hardly 6kgs. Have to consider the wooden planks weight and my hands which can be resting sometimes on it when playing. The side of my table are metal and are in a sort of Offset I-shape pattern.
Generally how I see this done is mounting the slides on two wings that extend downward from the table top. There are even kits that do this, and if you don't like the plastic tray, you could probably cut a wooden one to replace it.
great video
The soft Close undermount drawer runner in the video is labelled SCUDR-450 on the website I can only find USCDR-450 are these the same things?
Hi Mike - sorry yes the USCDR series is the undermount soft-close runner, the info in the video is incorrect.
Thank you.
You are very welcome, Erik. We appreciate your comments.
Great video new in you channel can you make a video for dyi integrated or built in refrigerator
Thank you Patrick!
Great vid
Thanks for the video, very helpful.
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Does it matter where you set the runner? You put the runners at the bottom edge and the better runners in the middle, is it because of the weihht the drawer is gonna hold?Or thats the recommended spot for installation?
Thanks for the compact primer. I've been needing this. One comment though: It seems hard to believe that a constraining attribute of a specific type of drawer hardware is color. The budget drawers ONLY come in white? The light-duty drawer runners may be more appealing because they come in black--only black. Why is this? What would happen to the mechanism of a budget drawer if it were painted black. Would it disintegrate? Spontaneously combust? Is it against the law to paint them any color but white. It really doesn't make much sense.
It's to push you to spend one dollar more for a better drawer slide
@@LukePighetti BINGO! You are wise to their ways oh Master Luke.
Where is the video of the installation of the finer under mounts you were filming separately ??
Post a link, thanx.
Hi Cap'n. Unfortunately our shooting schedule has not allowed us to film that as promised....yet. Our apologies.
thank you
The thumbnail makes the drawer faces look as if it’s a profile picture and the faces are cut at weird angles. I was wondering how they would work with the above drawer being at an opposing angle.
Then I realized it was an optical illusion. I was relieved, though somewhat sad as I wanted to see what the design concept was...
I learned so many terms I had no idea even existed
The cheaper drawer slides have plenty of friction if your drawers are out of square... I know from personal experience...
One thing I need cleared up if you don't mind. Say I want my drawer to hold up to 50lbs. Do I need 25lb slides one per side or do I need 50lb slides one per side.
The rating is for a pair of guides ... I'd go with the 50 lb.
Bril idea good video best in my workshop crap anywhere else
Thanks Ron. We are glad you liked it.
Thx
Nice presentation...USA-jc
Thank you!
Hi, is this t possible to double up drawer runners for supporting more weight?
Hi there, it might get you out of a jam but it's not a permanent solution. It is much better to use a single set that are rated correctly 😀
@@timbeconaus 👍
Great explanation, some dif to listening to some yank.
I need a 18 inch drawer how do I pick that on the web site when there is no refence to pick that size
Can any of those be cut to length at home?
No. We do sell them in a number of lengths. So you can choose the length that suits.
Wow, no over extension ?!!
Your bottom drawer should have made the sides1\2 deeper so you truly don't see the slider as per instructions
What? No 'push to open'?
The fifth type really reduces the useful volume of the drawer, because it needs a shallower drawer depth.
First thought; Why the hell ever would a kid be jumping on a drawer?
Next thought; My kids exist.
Yup, makes sense now.
i always buy the cheapest
When you have 10 drawers budget wins.
No one should care about this hardware - they all work.. I would save my money and buy the cheapest for ALL my customers and charge them a lot..profit margin is great on them.
Out of stock.
More rocket science?? The price difference doesn't justify installing something that you may regret later. It's not an investment, merely common sense!!
What about runners when an opening has no side wall as under a counter top?
