Hey pal,

If you are getting drawers installed in your house. You need to get the slides and brackets fixed in the cabinet. The drawer rests on the slides for leverage and support. Moreover, it allows the drawer to be pulled or pushed into the proper place. You should read how to measure drawer slides to gain information about the process.

Before I share with you how to measure drawer width for slides, read the tools you will need. 

  • Tape measure

  • Screwdriver

  • Pen/ Pencil 

  • Paper

  • Grease 

How to measure cabinet drawer slides?

  • With the screwdriver and grease remove the drawer from the cabinet

  • Use a measuring tape to measure the box. Do not include the face of the box in your measurement.

  • Note down the width of the drawer as well as the width of the opening in the cabinet

  • Examine the interior portion of the cabinet 

  • Examine the exterior of the cabinet 

Eg. If your drawer is 20 ½ inches long, then you will probably need 20-inch drawer slides.

If the difference between the opening of the drawer and the width of the drawer is 1/8 inch, use bottom-mount guides or full-extension guides. 

Why is an accurate drawer channel size chart important?

  • Many people make the mistake of using slides shorter than the drawer or taller than the drawer itself. You will end up wasting your money if you do so.

  • You should use the longest possible slide for the application 

  • The slide should match the depth of the cabinet 

  • You should make sure, the slide is not taller than the drawer. 

I hope all your doubts on how to measure drawer slides have been cleared.
