Would an 18" shelf board work for mounting the slides or should it be cut a bit longer? Thanks.

My cabinet bottom is exactly 18" deep. The floor mount rails fit that exactly! However, the slides that attach to the drawer protrude approx 3/8" further than that. I don't know if that answers your question.

The shelf is 19 1/4" wide, but the opening in front is 17" wide. If you can slide it in from the side it should work.

I am using these slides with a board that is 11 ¾" deep (of which ½" extends past the front end of the slides). So, 12" should be no problem. We replaced the weak slides that came on an otherwise usable computer desk from Staples. These slides are much stronger than those.

If you are looking for a bottom mounted slide this is not the one, these are pairs that are mounted on the sides of the drawer. I would suggest: Slide, Center Mount, Drawer Length 12-5/8"-14-1/2", Depth 15"-16-1/2", Extension - 10-1/2" by Accuride

I've had this board for years....It is wonderful....very heavy....If worried about sliding, I would just use a piece of that light rubber mesh type shelf liner under it... (available at Amazon.com...search shelf liner).....

The length of the entire mechanism, when it is closed is 60". The entire unit pulled to full extension is 120" That means that the hole in the wall you are going to install it in must be 60" deep. When you have installed the mechanism in that hole, you can then pull the sliding part out and attach a 60" long drawer or shelf, etc. to the mechanism then push the entire 60" back into the wall. One important thing to remember is that, unlike standard kitchen drawer slides, there is no way to detach the sliding part from the part affixed to the inside of the cabinet. You must first attach the entire mechanism inside the cabinet. You must then center your drawer/shelf between the rails, raise the drawer/shelf so it will clear the floor or cabinet frame, then pull the inner portion on the slide out on both sides of the drawer/shelf and attach the inner slide mechanism to the drawer/shelf. This is a VERY HEAVY mechanism and the forces of the load it will support are substantial. These slides are excellent and we could not be happier with our 4' X 5' x 18" pantry which slides out from beneath our stairwell. I hope that I have not been so wordy as to confuse the issue for you. Good luck with your project.

I think that the picture is a good illustration of how far the slides extend. They don't quite extend 100%, but it is a little more than 3/4. Also, you can mount the base closer to the cabinet door to get it to extend farther out.

The slide is spiraled so I'm not sure length pieces would be that helpful. I think the manufacturer has lots of measurement info on their site that might be helpful.

mine has 2 heights for mounting the top drawer slide: one will put the very top of the slide shelf wire frame @ 17" off the floor of the cabinet, the other will be 2" higher.

I one I -purchased jsut slide on the bottom of the door. I had to trim it though due to its length. I used a pair of pvc cutters to do the trimming.

Hello, this should work for you, I mounted a center slide in one of my side night stands and with any retro fit you will have some issues you will have to deal with, but once you have the first one done all the rest will go much easier. If your handy with tools don't be afraid to tackle something outside your comfort zone, you may surprise yourself.

not a good fit for you. The angle will be very steep and the slide will prob. flex too much for older kids. I reinforced mine with 2x4s (not part of the original mfg's plan)

This slide does not require any additional mounting hardware. One warning: make sure there is sufficient space between the cabinet wall and drawer side for each slide (about 1/2" on each side of the drawer) before installing the slides.

These guides are plenty strong enough and, if the length is the same, just make sure you have the 1/2 inch of clearance you'll need on each side. Each of these slides requires 1/2 inch of clearance between the side of the cabinet and side of the drawer. The mounting holes may not line-up perfectly but that shouldn't give you pause.

Are your drawers really that shallow? You need about 2-3 inches. Are your slides located on the bottom edge of the drawer? If not, you may be able to mount the device under the slides. Otherwise, you're out of luck.

You can adjust to any width and I put a 16" deep piece on. No problem. But if you don't square up the slides exactly, they will fight you. Just can't seem to get them to glide smooth.

The slides on the file cabinet that I built using these slides are approximately 3/8 inch thick [that's about 0.375"]. The file cabinet consists of 3 drawers and the slides work beautifully. The only advice that I can give you is to make sure that your measurements are correct - I ruined 2 slides before I got this right. But overall, I'm very pleased with them and would buy them again. Good luck.
