rear socket for drawer slide

Question

The cabinets were installed in 1992 by the previous owner so I do not know the manufacture. The inside dimensions of the socket are 3/8 by 15/16 and 1 1/4 deep. The exact replacement would of course be best, but if there is one that requires screw mounting with everything else correct then that would also be nice.
Thanks for checking.

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for reaching out! Your drawer socket appears to be an old Merillat drawer socket. Unfortunately, these are no longer made but the good new is we have two possible solutions that should work well as a replacement. Something to consider is that the old Merillat socket is has two posts that allow it to plug into the back wall of the cabinet. With that said, you will need to drill new installation holes to install the new sockets.

Carefully review and compare the dimensions from the 32-119 Grass Adapter Bracket Pair as well as the 32-012 Rear Drawer Track Socket to see if either of these could work as replacement for your brackets.

You'll also likely need to replace the drawer slides. The slide in your photo does not appear to be compatible with either of the recommended bracket/socket replacements. Take a look at the drawer slides tagged to this post.
