Review on LONTAN B4502 Rear Mounting Brackets For Face Frame Cabinets With 6 Pairs Of Drawer Slides (45Mm Width) by Aaron Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Won't slide easily

originally had problems. added 1/16" to one spacer. drawers slide fairly smooth. soft close still doesnt work unless i guve a slight shove.I bought the 22" soft close slides. I installed one so far. I have probably installed 3 dozen slides prior to these and had no problems with the install on them.The slides are jerky and not easy to push, and the soft close doesn't work. It sounds like something is dragging at spots. I removed the slide from the drawer and tested the slide. It slides like it should. The slides clear the screws. Put the drawer back in and same issues. I thought maybe the drawer and slides were too tight in the opening.I have spacers to keep the slides clear of the cabinet frame and hinges. The opening between the spacers is 29-1/4" wide. My drawer is 28-3/16" wide. With the slides it is 29 3/16" wide. That gives me 1/16" gap which is what I use when installing slides. So the drawer isn't to tight. Not sure what to do at this point. I'll try adding the second drawer and see if that has an issue.
