Repairing a broken drawer from a Chris Madden dresser

Question

Re: Chris Madden dresser drawer with a Broken "Kenlin Guide Socket".

I think I found the right part to replace it for our dresser drawer. Yeah!! It looks identical from the pictures on your web site. It has the "Kenlin" name on it, as well as, (US.PAT.Re.32,134). But, is there more than one size or is this the only one? The inner opening is about 1-1/8", I believe. Also, if this is the right part, can I use the stronger #32-082 part instead of the #32-081?

Good Morning,

If your broken Kenlin socket is the same shape as the 32-081 then you can feel confident that either the 32-081 or the 32-082 Kenlin sockets will work. Currently Kenlin makes two styles of drawer sockets and both the 32-081 and 32-082 are for their Rite-Trak I style. The Kenlin Rite-Trak II style socket has an oval shape (note: this style is not available).

If you need a replacement Kenlin drawer runner, see part 32-076.
