Drawer slides
 

I have a 24" deep pantry closet that I'd like to install slide out
shelves in. I'm looking for a full extension, center mount drawer slide
to use. I really would prefer to not have the slides mounted on the side
of the shelf. The slide out shelf would be mounted on the existing fixed
shelf which extends behind the door opening. The center mount slide
would have to be heavy duty (for canned goods) and I guess I could use
two slides per shelf if necessary. In checking most online catalogs I
could only find 3/4 extension slides in the 25 pound capacity range.
Thanks for any help!

A 24" shelf loaded with canned good is a pretty hefty load. I can
understand why they'd not make them. I'd surely want two slides for the
weight and leverage encountered. How would you mount the slides? Load up a
24" long board with canned goods and try to hold it by a single rail
extending from the bottom by 24"and see how much force is required.
Personally, I'd look at the side mounts.

What you need to look for is a pantry slide not a drawer slide.

Think about what you are asking the slide to do and the weigh they will
carry. Then reconsider full extension slides that mount on the sides and
vertically.

I'd go with full extension side mount. Grizzly.com has some decent
prices.

Or, he could go with a heavy duty unit.

These folks make slides for "any" application.

You might want to consider a "pantry slide" which is a misnomer
since it's really a great big arrangement meant to handle the
loads that a pantry might see...

Look for "pantry rollout".......

Did my lady's pantry with 3/4 extension, 100 lb side & bottom mount. Worked great. Three years now. FYI, canned goods, 15 or 16 oz cans equals 16 lbs per sq ft.
