They sell these as a set and can't be purchased as separate pieces... I had the same issues when I purchased a new home and moved. I wanted to take these and a couple of them broke in trying to remove them. I contacted the manufacturer and was told they are only sold in sets.

Hi, I am not aware of any adhesive that can be purchased to replace the used one. You may want to check from the manufacturer Web site.

I found that the "Loctite Clear Power Grab Outdoor Mounting Tape" (3/4" x 60") (also sold on Amazon) works well as a replacement for the original adhesive. The square is basically 1.5" x 1.5." So cutting two small strips at 3/4" fits perfectly on the square. The hold is just as strong as the original adhesive. And in my experience, the Loctite adhesive is less likely to damage its contact surface than the Scotch Extreme Mounting Tape.

I've reused mine 3 times so far. Just go to walmart and buy a roll of the 3m double sided sticky tape. Cut to size of the lock and stick. And removing was a sinch. I just got a eating knife and stuck it in the corner gave it a little life and it popped off. No mess , scratches. Clean off.

No, unfortunately. I asked the company and they confirmed this. However, if you send them back to Munchkin and tell them they're unusable without replacement adhesive, they will send you a brand new set :)

Yes get good double sided tape. Or wood glue. But if you think you might want to take them apart later go with the tape.

There's a little tab for you to pull. Similar to the 3M hook products that don't damage the walls. The tab pulls the adhesive sticker and it comes off.

I would tape the back of the hinge with fresh duck tape. The glue on older duck tape is stickier and may cause problems. I haven't had to do that yet because of the strength of the product. I agree with Rebekah B., that they only last so long.

Matthew, just paint your cabinets. I wish I had. You may have to sand, or use a chemical stripper to prep the surface first; the kit comes with a chemical deglazer that you use first, but it was a pain. Beyond that I can't see any difference in what's in the kit and what you can buy on the shelf of a Home Depot, although it comes with a can of this stuff you use to pre-age them for a specific look. The final step is a glaze that is AWFUL and hard to work with, esp if you are painting your cabinets white. I wish I had just bought a hand sander and semi gloss paint -- which I ended up doing anyway, but I could have saved a lot of time and money. Matthew, just paint your cabinets. I wish I had.

Hi Bill: I have no idea where you can purchase replacement parts. I just know I only received one key with my purchase and they in at least 3 phone conversations said they would send me the other key I was due and i never did receive it. I just gave up! One key and dents in the cabinet that I had to pound out and then ended up repainting the entire cabinet seems it was not worth the effort to purchase let alone the cost of the item.

The included glue is really awful and they'd fall off quickly. Even when I stuck them to my fridge (a very flat, smooth surface) they fell off after a day or two.You can always just use whatever adhesive you want though. We used really good quality double-sided tape and stuck them back up.

It didnt worked for me that way. Usually after removed once it did not adhered good next time. Also each time after adhered came off after about 8 to 10 months. Which is ok because of nature of product. I am using this from last 3 years and I do replace them every 6 months. I am using is a to do list board. Its small area.

The adhesive on the sticker is very strong, and probably cannot be removed and reattached again. To find additional adhesive, try your local hardware store. They have all sizes and shapes and you can trim it to size for your needs. Good luck!

They attach with double sided tape (that is provided) so technically you could put it anywhere the tape would stick - including the inside of a door which is where I had mine. However it didn't stick well for me and only lasted under a week before falling off. I tried buying more double sided adhesive - only lasted a couple days (even with small plastic containers like in the pic). I plan on going back and trying to mount inside cabinet door with small screws but just haven't taken the time to do that yet.

I have found the explanation! I called the manufacturer, and as it turns out, about a year ago they had a shipment of these go out with the wrong adhesive. The labels had the heavy-duty adhesive that was used for their shipping boxes. The woman I spoke to was very nice, and offered to send me a replacement. The label on mine is not coming off with any amount of elbow grease or tricks. She was wondering how they were still out there, since it was a couple hundred of them and it was a year ago. It must be a particular third party shipper used by Amazon. The should NOT be trying to get rid of these on unsuspecting Amazon customers! Shame. I have found the explanation!

I have tried them and they worked ok. The adhesive supplied with the drawer is industrial adhesive that can only be removed by scraping it off with a putty knife when applied to a clean dry surface. The only surface that this tape does not stick too would be particle board. Could you please try the following: 1. make sure the surface is clean and dry. 2. Confirm the side rails and drawers fit underneath the cabinet, and the side rails will rest flat against the bottom of the cabinet. 3. The tape has to be applied with a firm upward force to ensure it will adhere. If it still does not adhere properly we can send you new side rails with fresh adhesive tape.

No, it doesn't come with adhesive, and standard double- sided tape works fine. Cut and fit it into the same pattern the original adhesive was in.

I used Titebond II (wood glue) on the bottom piece and all six drawers. I've found this brand to hold longer/better than Gorilla or Elmer's (possibly a local humidity effect?) and you should be able to get the original or Titebond III (three viscosities and drying times) at any home center/hardware store for about $6. A newer product I also can recommend is called Nexabond 2500. It will cost a little more and only comes in short- or medium-handling times, but it's a great adhesive for gluing wood to leather, plastic, plexiglass or other materials and takes a lot less effort (e.g., holding pieces firmly for five minutes is better than using wood clamps for an hour or more).

I think you are talking about the initial installation. That would probably be like screwing anything into wood. My mom needed someone else to do this for her. It does have adhesive to hold it in position while you screw it in, but you want a good installation so you can use it with some force. It's just a plastic disc with holes for wood screws to go into your cabinet underside.

I would agree with all of the others. However, if you decide to glue it anyway, make sure you rough up those areas where glue touches. I would not glue. If you don't like the just-screws option when you put it together, you can always take it back apart and sdd glue. Much tougher the other way. Don M. of Queen Creek, AZ

If you mean can you reuse this, no. Once it's applied that's it, which is why it's important to lone it up very carefully. The second part is how easy is it to remove . Mine is still up. You will have to pick at the corners to remove it. Or get a little tool to scrape it off.
