Plastic Kitchen Drawers Gone Bad?
WE HAVE A SOLUTION!
PLASTIC DRAWER REPLACEMENT “KIT”:
- New solid maple dovetailed drawer box pre-finished with natural lacquer, sized to fit.
- New nylon clip for back of wood drawer to retro fit to plastic track left inside cabinet.
- Drawer front and handle transfer and alignment is up to the client. Generally center left/right and up/down.
- Kit Pricing: with guidance how you or a handyperson can install.
- First drawer $250, slightly more for deep or extra-wide drawers
- Additional drawers $175 at same time any regular size
- Sizing: Requires client to accurately measure width and height of cabinet opening to +/-1/16" accuracy.
- New Wood box will be 1/4" less in width and 1/2"+ less in height. They come only in 1/2" increments.
- New drawer will be 18" deep front/back, same as plastic ones.
- The back of the wood drawer receives an adjustable sized drawer track clip that can be used with the pre-existing plastic track still inside the cabinet.
- The brown nylon "L" glides are for the inside of the cabinet face frame left & right for drawer to slide on.
- Any slide sytem hardware consumes space. If you want to convert to a metal side roller then you must advise us.
- IF client has more than one plastic drawer, and one fails, it is strongly recommended they replace all that are used much since the rest will likely fail shortly. Plastic ages.
- Easy enough to install but clumsy. At most we believe readjustment of height of back glide might be required.
NOTICE: We have recently learned of plastic drawers that do NOT have the "C" shaped clip on the back of the drawer that fits over an "H" shaped track inside the cabinet. They have a wheel. IF SO, the same approach to replacing the drawer box is possible, but you will have to obtain a replacement metal track system with wheel for rear of the drawer. They are called either "tri rollers" or 'monorail" track systems. They are commonly available from Ace Hardware, Home Depot or Lowe's. You can obtain one that is longer than the inside depth of your cabinet and hack saw it to length. It is just more hassle to install.
