FAQs
Q: What types of drawer runners are available, and how do they differ in function?
A: Gelmar offers ball bearing, soft-close, push-open, undermount, and roller runners. Ball bearing runners provide smooth, durable movement, soft close runners ensure a quiet, gentle close, and push open runners are perfect for handleless drawers. Undermount runners are hidden beneath the drawer for a sleek look, while roller runners offer a cost-effective solution for lighter drawers.
Q: How do I choose the right drawer runner for my specific furniture or cabinet?
A: Consider the weight capacity, space available, and the desired function. For heavier drawers, ball bearing runners or heavy-duty options work best. Soft close runners are ideal for high-traffic areas, while push-open runners suit minimalist designs.
Q: What weight capacity do different drawer runners support?
A: Ball bearing and heavy-duty runners typically support more weight, ranging from 25kg to 45kg or more, depending on the size. Standard runners, like roller runners, are better suited for lighter drawers.
Q: How do I install drawer runners, and what tools are needed for the installation?
A: Installing heavy-duty and other drawer runners usually requires a drill, screws, measuring tape, and a level. Gelmar offers installation guides to help you choose the correct positioning and ensure a smooth, aligned fit.
Q: What are the benefits of soft close drawer runners compared to standard runners?
A: Soft close runners prevent slamming, extending the life of both your drawer and cabinet. They also create a quieter environment, making them ideal for kitchens and bedrooms where quiet functionality is essential.
