Do these glides require the drawer to be 1 inch less in width than the opening or ?
1307851
Yes, each glide is 1/2 inch in width. These are good quality glides. I have used them on many projects and highly recommend them.
1307852
To be exact, those guides require the drawer to be 1 1/16" smaller than the opening.
1307853
Yes, these drawer glides require 1/2" of space on each side of the drawer so the drawer should be 1" narrower than the opening in the cabinet.
1307854
Yes. However, I make my drawers 1 1/32" narrower to guarantee a smooth glide.

The opening on my cabinet is 14 3/4" wide. Installed, there is maybe 1/16" on either side between the drawer and the cabinet. No problem, but I'm glad I paid a professional to install it. You should have no problem. Be sure the door opened does not obstruct the drawer sliding out.

Need about 1 inch clearance.Check for any lock mechanism, for me it hit the lock bar of the drawer.

These go on both sides at the front of the drawer opening in the chest, with the long dimension perpendicular to the vertical sides of the opening and the short dimension up against the edge of the opening. The bottom of the side walls of the drawer slide on these. To install them, you'll probably have to use either a small hammer or the side of a hammer and it works best if you put a small piece of wood or something stiff and flat, even a putty knife between the glide and the hammer so you're actually distributing the load on the glide, otherwise the head of the tack in the glide will break through. If it does, you can still make the glide work by hammering the tack down with a nail set. Photo posted.

No, but they open smoothly as long as you apply equal pressure and don't get the drawers at an angle.

This is typically for a light use base cabinet drawer, for example a drawer in your kitchen used for silverware, table linens, etc. The size should be less than 24" long and I would want to limit the width for weight and weight of contents to 24" as well. You can also use this drawer guide for bathroom vanity drawers which might be 18" or less long. Do this by simply cutting the guide shorter.

I don't think so. The right side with the lower shelf is shorter than the left side where the drawer is. The grooves are designed in specific spots to fit what is in the picture.

The drawers are on glides. They open very smoothly and I only use one hand. Sometimes when closing tightly I give it a little extra. I have never had them get stuck.

Hi, They are one inch from side to side and one and one quarter inch from the drawer to the front. Hope this helps.

There are not glides underneath the drawer like, say, in most all kitchen drawers -- there is a wooden knob on each side of the drawer and a track which I suppose serves the purpose of gliding the drawer in and out. Having said that, we bought two last fall and use them for our bedside tables and they have been a great purchase -- very sturdy - both arrived in immaculate condition - drawers are very easy to pull open and close and they have a stop feature so the drawer would never come all the way out. Our toddler can easily open and close them...but again, they don't feel flimsy at all -- it looks and seems like a very expensive piece of furniture even though it's really affordable compared to something comparable at Pottery Barn, etc. We are still pleased with our purchase 9 months later. Hope this helps.

The outside width of the drawer box should be 1" narrower than the cabinet opening. This allows 1/2" on each side of the drawer box for the guide.

I don't think these will work for you they are more than a 1/4 thick on just one side. These are for a drawer that you want to pull all the way ouy.

The drawer needs to be the same as the measurement of the drawer. If it is not the same size you will not get the full extension

A 20" drawer glide is for a full extension of the drawer box. So, it is a closed dimension.

Separate? Not really, they just expand to the width if your drawer. The ones on the side are 3 sided, so they can't go int a drawer by themselves unless they are pressed up to a side

Hi, thanks for your question. According to the product information, the sliders are designed for use on box drawer applications up to 24" wide. For future reference, you can find this information in the "Product Description" section of the product page. I hope this helps!

it is not the inside cabinet width that is important, but the width at the door which tends to be smaller. As the rails are placed inside the 14" width of the drawer, in theory, you really only need 14". However, you do need some clearance. I think the doors to my cabinets are about 15", so I have 1/2" clearance in each side.
