Canberra 3-Section Soft-Close Undermount Drawer Slides

Canberra 3-Section Soft-Close Undermount Drawer Slides
3-Section Soft-Close Undermount Drawer Slides are high-end hardware components designed for drawer systems, widely used in furniture like cabinets, wardrobes, and office file cabinets. They consist of three core parts: fixed rail (mounted on the cabinet body), middle rail (connecting fixed and moving rails for smooth extension), and moving rail (attached to the drawer bottom). Unlike side-mounted slides, they remain fully hidden between the drawer and cabinet when closed, delivering a sleek, minimalist aesthetic while ensuring excellent load-bearing capacity and durability.
Core Features
Full Extension Design
The slides allow the drawer to extend completely out of the cabinet, providing easy access to items stored at the back—eliminating the hassle of reaching into deep, hard-to-reach spaces.
Soft-Close Damping System
Equipped with a built-in hydraulic or pneumatic damper, the slides enable the drawer to close slowly and quietly. When the drawer is pushed to within 3-5cm of the cabinet, the damper automatically engages, preventing slamming, reducing noise, and protecting both the drawer and cabinet from wear.
Undermount Hidden Installation
Installed beneath the drawer (instead of on the sides), the slides are invisible when the drawer is closed. This design keeps the cabinet interior clean (no dust accumulation on side rails) and maintains the furniture’s overall visual harmony, ideal for high-end or modern-style furniture.
High Load-Bearing & Durability
Made of high-quality galvanized steel or cold-rolled steel (with typical thickness ranging from 1.0mm to 1.8mm), the slides usually support a load of 30-40kg (common specification: 35kg). Most products undergo rigorous testing, with a service life of up to 100,000 opening-closing cycles, ensuring long-term stable use.
Easy Installation & Adjustment
Many models feature a tool-free quick-release design, allowing the drawer to be detached from the rails effortlessly for cleaning or maintenance. They also support 3D adjustment (height: ±4mm, left-right: ±2mm), enabling precise alignment to adapt to different cabinet board thicknesses (commonly 18-19mm).
Buying Tips
Confirm Load & Size: Choose the load capacity based on the drawer’s intended use (e.g., 35kg for kitchen drawers with heavy tableware). Select the slide length (common sizes: 10-20 inches / 250-500mm) to match the drawer depth.
Prioritize Damper Quality: Hydraulic dampers offer more stable soft-close performance than pneumatic ones; check for smooth, noiseless operation during testing.
Match Board Thickness: Ensure the slides are compatible with your cabinet board thickness (19mm is standard for most residential cabinets).
