Telescopic drawers 

With telescopic drawers, the annoying search for utensils - whether in the kitchen, workshop, pantry or bedroom dresser - is a thing of the past. Everything is in its place and can still be used at any time. Telescopic drawers are therefore particularly suitable for retrofitting, as they make cupboards more effectively usable. They are usually constructed with two rails that slide into each other, with a ball bearing providing the necessary flexibility.

From chaos to order with telescopic drawers

Telescopic drawers are usually made of metal - as are the ones you find in our online shop. They are therefore durable and go with any design. In addition, they can bear a lot of weight and are therefore extremely robust. That means they can easily take up to 25 kilograms of contents. In addition, they also score with ease of movement, because the telescopic drawers can be pulled out completely in a comfortable and simple way and are still 100 % stable and safe. And they glide smoothly and quietly - even when their contents weigh more. So everything remains well stored and can still be retrieved at any time. When choosing the right telescopic drawer, it is important that you know exactly for which of your cupboards you need the component. For example, telescopic drawers are available for retrofitting to 50 cm or 60 cm wide drawers. They are fitted in a similar way to conventional drawers - with runners and screws.

3 frequently asked questions about telescopic drawers and our answers

The selection and installation of telescopic drawers in your own home sometimes raises questions - we answer three of the most important ones below:

Can telescopic drawers be fitted yourself?

If you have some manual skills and the right tools, you can assemble telescopic drawers yourself. In most cases, the rails are first fitted to the drawer and then to the cabinet body with screws. Follow the manufacturer's assembly instructions exactly so that everything is in the right place later. You can find out more about fitting drawer runners here.

Are telescopic drawers also suitable for outdoor use?

Telescopic drawers are usually designed for indoor use and are therefore only suitable for outdoor use to a limited extent. The reason for this are aspects such as humidity, weather influences or extreme temperatures, which can affect the components and thus negatively impact their function and durability.

Are telescopic drawers also suitable for heavy objects?

Generally, telescopic drawers offer a high load-bearing capacity and stability - but this can vary depending on the manufacturer and model. It is therefore important to take a look at the weight restrictions so as not to overload the drawers.
