Reply address is invalid. Or some of them have a hole in the slider that you poke through to disengage the barb that stops them coming all the way out Andrew Mawson |

My Sankey cabinet, on the other hand, has a drop catch at the end of each runner which must be lifted to allow the drawer to be wrestled free. No doubt you have looked for all the catches so it may well be that you are into rivet drilling or drawer lifting as suggested elsewhere. BOL Richard |

Can anyone tell me how to remove the drawers from a Bisley 4 drawer filing cabinet. On the Bisley cabinet I have there are two longitudinal tabs on the underside of each drawer (one on each side, at the front) which engage in slots in the runners. Each tab is fitted with a small self-tapping screw, the head of which prevents the drawer accidentally being lifted off the runner. Remove said screws and, hey-presto, the drawers are easily removed. (It is rare to find these screws re-fitted once they have been removed.) This is all pretty obvious, so perhaps yours is a different design... -- Andy |
