Häfele Drawer Slides
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Step 1: Mark the Slide Position
Measure and mark the exact height where the side slides will be installed. Use a level to ensure the line is perfectly horizontal—precision here guarantees a smooth drawer motion.
Step 2: Mount the Cabinet Slides
Screw in the cabinet-side slides carefully. Repeat on the opposite side and ensure both are perfectly aligned. Alignment is key to a professional finish.
Step 3: Attach the Drawer Slides
Now, fix the second part of the slides to the drawer itself. Keep them at the same height on both sides for a balanced glide.
Step 4: Slide It In
Carefully insert the drawer back into place. You’ll notice the Häfele slides glide smoothly and quietly, giving your furniture a sleek, professional touch.
