Nope, at least not yet. I'd have to work out something if it becomes an
issue, from visitors or gravity. My kids are old enough they ought to know
better, but I knock on wood when I say that!

I thought about that, but since these are simple drawer slides, I'd have
to give that a whole lot of thought to make it workable. There was a time
we used our brains, and the ones who today use lawyers to asuage their
stupidity simply learned the hard way. Although I'm quite sure I'll pull a
stupid eventually, I plan on bolting/clipping/chaining it to the wall when
it's finally in its home.
