How to Build Pull-Out Drawers Under Stairs · Step 9 of 10

Once all cabinet slides are installed, carefully insert each assembled drawer box and tray into its respective set of slides. The first insertion might feel a bit rough or stiff. Push the drawer all the way in and pull it out a few times to help 'seat' the ball bearings and allow the slides to operate smoothly. Ensure all drawers and trays slide in and out effortlessly. While there might be initial resistance, with proper installation, they should become smooth after a few cycles. If any drawer binds significantly, inspect the slide alignment and re-adjust if necessary.
