Default Drawer Slides

I installed full extension drawer slides. The problem I am having is
that when closed one corner of the drawer sticks out a little further
than the other. I checked the squarenss of my drawer and it is good
and square. Is there an adjustment to pull in that one corner.


Sounds like the drawer rails are not quite perpendicular to the face of the
cabinet. Adjust the rear mounts away from the protruding corner, e.g. if the
left front corner is sticking out a bit, move the rear mounts slightly to the
right, and vice versa.

Unless the drawer is exceptionally wide or exceptionally narrow, you'll want
to move the rear mounts by about half the distance that the front corner
sticks out. For wide drawers, more than half; for narrow drawers, less.
