· Notice how the screw holes for both the cabinet member and the drawer member are all in a line, centered on the drawer slide? So all we need to do is draw lines where we want the center of the drawer slides to be, and screw into our lines.
· Determine where you want the center of the drawer slide and make a mark. This can vary depending on where you want your drawer or how deep the drawer is. I do like to keep my slides close to where the drawer pull or handle is located when possible.
· Use a level to draw a line on the inside of the cabinet from your marks. Make the same line on both sides of the inside of the cabinet.
· Install the cabinet member of the drawer slide so screws are centered on your line.
· Use the screws inside the U shaped tabs if possible, as this will give you some adjustment if needed later.
· Inset Drawer Faces: Hold the drawer slides in the distance of your drawer face on the front, if using a drawer face.
· Overlay Drawer Faces: The drawer slides should be installed just slightly back from the front of the cabinet.
