What happens here

After the clear coat has dried (ideally overnight), install the drawer slides. Use 14-inch full-extension ball-bearing slides with a 100-pound weight capacity. First, attach one part of the slide mechanism to the bottom interior of the under-sink cabinet. To ensure proper spacing and clearance, especially around the P-trap, use scrap 3/4 inch plywood or a 2x4 as a spacer underneath the slides if needed. Repeat the process to attach the corresponding slide mechanisms to the bottom exterior of the pull-out organizer.

Goal: Attach 14-inch full-extension ball-bearing drawer slides to both the inside of the cabinet and the base of the pull-out organizer.

Tools and materials

  • Cordless drill
  • Scrap 3/4 inch plywood or 2x4
  • Screws (provided with slides)

What they say

Hide

haul. It is in fact the next day. Everything's nice and dry. To install this, we're going to need 14-in full extension ball bearing sliders. Maximum weight 100 lb. Oh, yeah. We might also need some spacers on the side. So, grab some scrap 3/4in plywood or maybe even a 2x4. Who knows? Oh yeah, we might need some extra extenders on the side to bypass the face frame. But just grab some scrap piece of wood just in case we need it. Let's go. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
