Soft-Close Device for Wooden Drawers

The Soft-Close Device for Wooden Drawers upgrades nearly any set of standard epoxy-coated slides (sometimes called ''roller slides'') so that the drawer eases itself shut with barely a whisper. It combines a self-closing mechanism with a soft-close damper, engaging in the final 3'' of the drawer's travel. Whether retrofitting old cabinet drawers or using on a new installation, you'll get quiet, cutting edge performance at a very reasonable cost. Installation is easy and intuitive, involving only four screws: two for the cabinet member and two for the drawer member.

NOTE: This device is designed for epoxy-coated roller slides (#34827) mounted on wooden drawers. This soft-close mechanism also will work on ball-bearing drawer slides that require 1/2'' side clearance. When it is used with the ball-bearing slides, the rubber bumper at the back of the slides must be removed to allow smooth operation of the soft-close device. Very heavy drawers and those that are wider than 23'' will require two devices, one on either side.
