What are Undermount Drawer Glides?

Undermount Drawer GlidesUndermount drawer glides are drawer glides that are located under the drawer box. They provide more support than sidemount drawer glides.

Undermount drawer glides are pieces of hardware that are found beneath the box of the drawer. They allow the drawer to easily slide open and close. Undermount drawer glides hold more weight and provide more support than drawer glides that are located on the sides of the drawer box. Undermount drawer glides can be found in several lengths so that homeowners can fit them to their specific cabinet depths. Full-extension undermount drawer glides allow the drawers to be opened completely so that the back of the drawer can be reached. The glides are also available so that they drawers only open partially, which many homeowners who have young children prefer. In addition to these two features, undermount drawer glides are available with or without full-stops, which will keep the drawer box from leaving its tracks.
