Not all drawer slides are set up in the same way. It depends on the type of mounting method required, and on the type of furniture involved. For regular residential cabinets that don’t hold more than 100 pounds, there are a lot of economical drawer slides to choose from. For furniture like lateral cabinet or pantry drawers that hold a lot of stuff, the preferred type of slide is the floor mount drawer slide. This type ensures that the weight does not hinder the drawer from functioning properly. It’s important that you know the difference between the center mount, under mount and floor mount drawer slides.
