Identifying the Slides
Most slides have tiny letters embossed on them - the letters are CL, CR, DR, and DL. Understanding these letters is crucial for correctly mounting the slides.
What the Letters Mean
- C: Stands for Cabinet (the unit itself).
- D: Stands for Drawer.
- L: Stands for Left.
- R: Stands for Right.
Mounting the Slides Correctly
For the Cabinet (C):
- CL Slide: Should be mounted on the left-hand side of the unit as you face the unit.
- CR Slide: Should be mounted on the right-hand side of the unit as you face the unit.
For the Drawer (D):
- DL Slide: Should be mounted on the left-hand side of the drawer as you face the handle/front of the drawer.
- DR Slide: Should be mounted on the right-hand side of the drawer as you face the handle/front of the drawer.
Special Notes
- Roller Slides vs. Ball-Bearing Slides: The above lettering system usually only applies to roller slides, not ball-bearing slides. For ball-bearing slides, refer to the specific instructions provided in the assembly manual.
- Double-Check Instructions: Always double-check the assembly instructions provided with your product to ensure proper installation.
Additional Tips
- Orientation Matters: Pay close attention to the orientation of the slides. Incorrect mounting can result in drawers that do not open or close properly.
- Follow Steps Carefully: Carefully follow each step in the assembly instructions to avoid mistakes.
