Task guide
When this may be needed
- A runner is bent and the drawer drops or jams.
- Ball bearings have fallen out of a metal slide.
- A plastic roller has broken.
- A soft-close runner no longer closes softly.
- The drawer comes off its runners when pulled out.
What the team does
The technician removes the drawer and measures the old runner's length, type and mounting, because runners come in different lengths and side-mount or under-mount styles. The old runners are removed from the drawer and cabinet, new matching runners are fitted at the same height on both sides, and the drawer is refitted and adjusted. It is tested fully extended and under load.
Included in this price
- Measuring the runner type and length
- Removing the old runners
- Fitting new runners level on both sides
- Refitting and testing the drawer
Limits & price factors
The runners are charged on top of labour. Brand-specific runners that must be ordered, and broken drawer boxes, are not included.
The price starts from $60 per drawer. Under-mount and soft-close runners take longer than simple side runners. A photo of the runner helps prepare the right part.
FAQs
Measure the runner's length and note whether it is mounted on the sides or under the drawer, and whether it is ball-bearing, roller or soft-close. A photo helps match it.
A loose runner can be re-fixed. A bent slide or lost ball bearings usually means replacement.
Often, if the drawer and cabinet suit them. Under-mount soft-close runners need specific clearances, so they are checked first.
