DRAWERS NO LONGER SELF CLOSING

Question

We are remodeling our kitchen and have several drawers that are not self closing. Will we have to replace the slides to correct this or possibly just lub slides?

What is the difference between the rear drawer track socket and the rear drawer slide socket?

Thanks for posting! It depends on how the self closing works on your track. Our self closing tracks, like the 32-056 for example, self closes because of the contour of the track itself. Other self-closing tracks I've seen before use mechanisms of some sort, though. I don't know how yours works, so I can't say for sure what you'll need.

I'm also not sure what you mean when you ask for the difference between a rear drawer socket and a rear drawer slide socket. Were you looking at two particular SWISCO.com products? If so, can you give me their numbers?
