Adjust drawer runners

No comments
 

Drawer runners may require adjustment because of wear or simply because they were misaligned when the unit was constructed. Adjustment is a straightforward process of re-fixing the runner

Tools and materials
Screwdriver, mini spirit level, bradawl



Unscrew the runner, ideally leaving the rear screw in place.
Position a level on the runner and use a bradawl to mark new fixing holes.
Screw the runner back in place. Reposition the drawer and check for improved operation. Re-adjust if necessary.
