FAQs
Does this pack include screws?
Yes, each pack includes the necessary mounting hardware for immediate installation.
Can I use these with soft-close slides?
Yes, these spacers provide the necessary side clearance that many soft-close slide models require for the mechanism to function correctly.
Are these spacers stackable?
While they are designed for individual use, stacking them is generally not recommended as it may affect the structural stability of the slide mounting.
What is the exact thickness of the spacer?
These spacers are 1 inch (25mm) thick.
Will these work on frameless cabinets?
They are primarily designed for face-frame cabinets, but can be used in frameless cabinets if additional side clearance is needed for hinges.
Troubleshooting
Drawer is binding when fully pushed in.
Check that the spacer is mounted flush against the wall and the slide is not tightened down so hard that the spacer has cracked or deformed.
Drawer feels loose or wobbly.
Verify that your drawer box width is correct. If the box is too narrow for the 1-inch spacers, you may need a thinner shim.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Use a level to ensure the spacers are mounted perfectly vertically. Even a slight tilt can cause the drawer to sit crooked or stick.
Compatibility: These 25mm spacers are compatible with most standard side-mount, undermount, and European-style slides. Always check the manufacturer's manual for your specific slide model to confirm the required side clearance.
Care: Periodically check the mounting screws to ensure they remain tight. If the cabinet environment is humid, such as a kitchen, consider applying a thin coat of wax to the slides once a year to maintain smooth movement.
