help fixing my kitchen draw fronts back on

crispeater

hi,

can anyone help? 2 of my kitchen draw fronts have come off and the draws themselves are now falling off the runners when you open them and i dont know why. i'm not that bad a DIY as long as someone can give me an idiot guide on how to do it

so can anyone help me in preventing my kitchen looking shabbier than what it already does! lol

Can't say if your runners are like mine, but this has happened to me a while ago, the journals in the slide system wear out and the ball bearings become displaced, you can get replacement runners and the fronts are usualy held on by screws or bolts. Can't remember exactly what they cost me but not as expensive as I thought they would be. Think I got them from screwfix.

well i've managed to get the fronts on (just) and 1 back on the runner but the other one just doesnt want to go. when you look at it, its as if the draw is now too small for the unit which is odd.. i might have to call one of those 'dial a husband' to have a look coz i'm rubbish lol
