Push, pull, click click
I finished the vanity pull out I was making and installed it late yesterday.
It was a tight fit so my job for today was to take it out and skinny stuff down a skosh. Now, I am using full extension, ball bearing slides on it - HD best & greatest - and they have a little lever that has to be pushed down to release the drawer member from the frame member. The pull out is open to the room on one side, close to a wall on the other; easy to release the lever on the open side, just push the lever down. It is moderately more difficult on the wall side as I can't see it but room enough to get my arm down and feel it. Problem is, the damn thing wouldn't release... Push lever down, try to pullout the pullout, tight as a drum, curse. The foregoing was repeated numerous times. In between times, I was trying to think of another way to get at it...cut through both sides of wall and remove baseboard?...crowbar? Finally, cursing silently, I pulled the lever up instead of pushing down. It released. Push down on one side, pull up on the other. Does that make sense? To the manufacturer, I guess because he only had to make one configuration instead of two, the second being a mirror image of the first. It doesn't please me |
