Drawer Slide Heavy Duty
Some fancy functions of drawer slide
Manufacturers provide several options to add a touch of luxury to a drawer slide’s operation.
Soft-close slides slow the drawer as it closes, ensuring that it doesn’t slam.
Self-closing slides take the concept further and pull the drawer closed with just a gentle press on the drawer front.
Touch-release slides do the opposite—with a touch, the drawer pops open; useful for sleek cabinets without pulls.
Progressive movement slides provide a smooth glide because all segments move simultaneously, instead of having one segment reach the end of its travel before it begins pulling the next along.
Detent and locking slides hold in a set position until pushed, preventing unintended movement—ideal for small appliance stands or cutting boards.
To see or not to see
One of the first considerations when choosing a slide is whether you want it visible when the drawer opens. Some visible slides come in various colors (white, ivory, brown, or black) to help them blend better with light or dark drawer boxes.
