FAQs

Are mounting screws included?

No, the set does not include mounting screws. You will need to purchase screws that fit the mounting holes and your specific furniture material.

Can these be used for full-extension drawers?

No, these are specifically designed for partial extension. They will not allow the drawer to slide out completely.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The maximum load capacity is 10kg per pair.

How many pairs come in one order?

Each order contains 5 pairs of drawer runners.

Do I need to drill the 17mm groove myself?

Yes, these runners require a pre-existing 17mm groove in the side of the wooden drawer to be installed correctly.

Troubleshooting

Drawer feels stiff or difficult to open

Check that the runners are mounted perfectly parallel and that no screw heads are protruding from the profile.

Ball cage becomes misaligned

Fully extend the runner and manually slide the ball cage back into the start position before re-inserting the drawer.

Drawer sags when extended

Verify that the load weight does not exceed the 10kg limit and check that the drawer construction itself is not bowing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Verify that your wooden drawer box has a precise 17mm wide groove running the full depth of the drawer side.
  2. Installation: Since screws are not provided, select appropriate wood screws that match the countersunk holes in the runner profile, ensuring the screw head sits flush to avoid obstructing the ball cage.
  3. Alignment: Fix the carcass member to the inner walls of the furniture frame, ensuring they are level using a spirit level for balanced operation.
  4. Maintenance: To keep the runners operating smoothly, periodically remove the drawer and wipe the ball cages with a dry cloth to remove dust or debris. Avoid using heavy lubricants which may attract dust over time.
