Romanys 16-Inch Drawer Runner
The Romanys Drawer Runner 16 inch telescopic slide provides a high-performance movement solution for internal cabinetry and furniture storage systems. This zinc-plated steel hardware utilizes precision ball bearings to ensure a smooth glide even when the drawer is fully loaded. It is designed for side-mount installation in kitchen units, office pedestals, and workshop tool chests.
Built for the Job
Contractors and shopfitters specify this hardware for its reliable 45kg load rating and full-extension capability. Unlike standard roller runners, this telescopic design allows the drawer to open completely, providing unobstructed access to the rear of the storage space. The cold-rolled steel construction withstands frequent daily use in high-traffic environments like commercial kitchens or busy offices. Installers appreciate the standard 32mm hole pattern which aligns with most modern carcass manufacturing standards.

On-Site & Workshop Notes
-
Ensure a precise 12.7mm (0.5 inch) clearance between the drawer box and the cabinet side for optimal glide performance.
-
Use #6 or #8 pan head screws to prevent the screw heads from interfering with the internal ball bearing carriage.
-
Always check that the carcass is level and square before mounting to prevent the mechanism from binding or self-opening.
-
For high-moisture environments, periodic application of a dry lubricant can help maintain the steel ball paths.
