Drawer slide installation tutorial and detailed explanation

Many customers in the purchase of drawer guide, industrial guide and other products, do not know how to use them correctly, may use, but are not very standardized, so there will be a lot of problems in the process of use. For the slide rail, we have to master its installation and splitting methods, if these operations are not in place, then the service life of our furniture will decline, I think these are not what we all want to see, for the two operation and use links, Ao Lisheng Xiaobian summed up some methods for your reference.

1. First determine the drawer gap, according to the product drawings of the steel ball slide rail or measure the actual thickness of the slide rail, in order to subtract the thickness of the drawer slide rail with the width of the cabinet, and obtain the width of the drawer. Under normal circumstances, the thickness of the three-section slide drawer guide rail with the material of 1.2*1.2*1.5 is 12.7mm. Therefore, we recommend leaving 13mm gap on each side as shown in the picture below to ensure that the slide can be pushed and pulled freely. But not all 45 wide slides on the market are the same, because we found that some manufacturers on the market in order to achieve the purpose of parity, with thinner materials, such as 0.8 or even 0.6mm, ultimately resulting in the overall thickness of the slide is only 12.3mm or even 12mm, so, To confirm to the manufacturer or their actual product thickness to obtain the final processing size, in order to ensure that the furniture drawer push and pull freely.

2. Choose the length of the slide rail according to the length of the drawer, and determine the mounting hole position of the screw on the side panel of the drawer and cabinet, and determine the screw hole position according to the fixed rail (outer rail) given by the manufacturer's drawings (there are all kinds of slides on the market, basically each manufacturer's steel ball slide rail hole position is different, so it is necessary to process according to the drawings of the manufacturer you purchased). Or according to the actual sample volume required to install screw holes, furniture factory mass production can use mechanical row holes (some manufacturers are not 32 series holes, furniture factories need to pay attention to). If the amount of personal use is less, it can be used to manually draw the marking hole method to locate. Pay attention to ensure that the upper and lower positioning is consistent, otherwise the slide is not smooth. Fix the screw mounting holes of the fixed rail on the side panel of the cabinet, and fix the screw mounting holes of the movable rail on the side panel of the drawer.

3. After the holes are arranged, pick up the slide rail and pull out the movable rail (inner rail) by hand to separate the movable rail (outer rail) from the fixed rail (outer rail). Lock the two fixed rails (outer rail) to the side panels on both sides of the cabinet according to the holes in the row, and then lock the two movable rails on the side panels on both sides of the drawer according to the holes in the row.

4. After completing the above steps, then align the end of the movable rail (inner rail) on both sides of the drawer side plate with the end of the fixed rail (middle rail), and then gently push it inside, you will hear a gentle card sound, indicating that the movable rail and the fixed rail part have been linked, and the drawer can be pushed and pulled freely.

Split:

In many families, it is usually encountered that the drawer guide is broken, and the drawer guide disassembly also requires a certain method, and different disassembly methods need to be carried out according to different drawers. Only if you use the right method, the way. In order to achieve a perfect disassembly process, otherwise it will damage the track or drawer.

Usually we have such a question: the drawer slide at home is broken, want to disassemble it, but do not know how to deal with it?

Drawer rail How to disassemble Answer one:

First of all, you need to determine what kind of slide rail is at home, such as three-section track, industrial guide rail. If it is a three-section track, the cabinet should be gently pulled out first, and when it is pulled to the upside down, be sure to carefully look at whether a sharp thing will leak out on both sides of the cabinet, usually on both sides of the cabinet. (This sharp thing is usually called a plastic clip) and then try to press the plastic clip twice down, and you can hear the crisp sound when you press it, and this time it means that it is opened. This makes it easy to take the cabinet out. When taking off, be sure to ensure that the cabinet is kept in a horizontal position, do not use too much force, otherwise the track on both sides will be damaged, after adjustment, install it to a suitable position.

How to remove drawer tracks Answer two:

First, the cabinet should be easily pulled out, but it must be maintained in a stable state when pulled out, so that it will not harm the cabinet and the track when pulled out. Look at whether there are sharp buttons on both sides of the cabinet, if you see, try to press down with your hand, if you can press you will hear a click, this time to take out the cabinet. But in the press must not be too hard, if the press does not understand that something is stuck, need to check. After pressing down, remove it gently and evenly so that it does not damage the track too much. After extraction, check whether the drawer's track slide is due to deformation, or other circumstances, if you encounter deformation, usually adjust the deformation position, install it and fix it, and then put it into it in the original way, which can easily complete the drawer rail disassembly, and installation of two big problems.
