I have a cabinet carcass that I am wanting to fit drawers in, however I'm a little unsure about it and seeking some advice.
My carcass is 710mm tall with 18mm base and spacer, so the height for drawer runners is 710 - (2 x 18) = 674mm.
I have bought some of the Hafele metal drawer system drawers.
I have 2 x 150mm tall drawers and 2 x 86mm drawers, they didn't come with any instructions.
I also bought some soft close adapters to make these slides close softly, where a tab is screwed onto the bottom of the drawer box and this catches the spring mechanism to provide a controlled close.
These came with some instructions - However it seems to assume that I have bought a specific panel that has pre-drilled holes.
Now, my kitchen drawers (coincidentally) actually appear to use a similar system to the components I'd bought above! Same height drawers, same type of soft close and everthing! These appear to use the soft close adapters the same way that the instructions suggest - upside-down... I understand that this is to minimise the wasted space fitting them.
The soft-close instructions actually show how far from the top that the adapters should be, however I'm not sure if these are going to accommodate my design for how many drawers I have...
I have 4 drawers, but I would be perfectly happy if I could only use 3. I do however want to make sure that I have 2 of the deeper drawers on the bottom.
Can anybody offer some advice? Should this perhaps have best been asked on the DIY stackexchange?
