Start with visible obstructions and drawer loading before assuming a runner needs repair.
Applicability, tools, and stop conditions
Is this the right starting point?
- A lightweight drawer catches
- Uneven or scratchy movement
Before you begin
- Unreviewed draft: do not follow as approved repair instructions.
- A stable, secured piece of furniture and a lightweight, reachable drawer.
- Manufacturer guidance permits cleaning the accessible track without drawer removal.

Stop and get qualified help if…- The furniture tips, shifts, or is not securely supported.
- A runner is bent, detached, or has loose sharp pieces.
- Access requires drawer removal, tools near a spring, or lifting a heavy load.
