Klimber Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 I am installing some undermount blum sliders but the are a bit short as shown in the picture, will they work? Sorry if it's a really basic question, I am really new to this as I am sure that is obvious. I should be clear - I am wondering if I can just mount the front of the bracket in that location and it will be OK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klimber Posted February 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 As you can see these are super cheap drawers so even mounting the locking device will be challenging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klimber Posted February 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 would it be OK to just put a block of wood between the locking device and the drawer face? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding your drawer slide question can they work that way possibly if jerry rigged but they are not designed to. The bracket should be installed like this and the slide fit to the drawer so that the peg fits into the back of the drawer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank so much pkinneb! what would you recommend if I didn't want to jerry rig it? I presume i'd need ot get a different slider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom King Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 I'd shorten the drawer. It looks like the next size up will be too long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
