Abstract

A cantilevered drawer slide arrangement for supporting drawers where the slide hardware is entirely hidden inside the drawer cabinet. A pair of individual tracks are mounted on each side of the cabinet inside the front face. A square bracket having roller wheels fits on each side of the rear of the drawer. The forward wheel is behind the rear third of the drawer. The wheels ride in the tracks on each side and are kept in the cabinet by track stops. An adjustable drawer alignment screw on each side of the drawer between the drawer and the drawer cabinet provides a means to minimize the drawer side movement when the drawer is extended.
