Knape Vogt 8400P 18 Drawer Slide 18 Inches Chrome

Product Description

The KNAPE VOGT 8400P 18 is a ball bearing drawer slide designed for box drawers and vertical file drawers in residential and light commercial cabinet applications. Built with a chrome finish, it measures 18 inches in slide length and 1.79 inches in height, fitting standard drawer cavities in filing cabinets, utility cabinets, and office furniture. The lever-based drawer release allows for full drawer removal without tools. With a 100-pound load capacity, it is suited for file storage, shop drawers, and similar heavy-use applications. Cabinet installers, finish carpenters, and millwork professionals are the typical trades handling this hardware.

This slide is appropriate for box drawer configurations and vertical file drawer installations in both residential and light commercial settings. It suits kitchen cabinetry, office filing systems, utility storage, and workshop bench drawers where a chrome aesthetic and reliable ball bearing action are required. The lever release mechanism simplifies drawer removal during service or reconfiguration. At 18 inches, it fits mid-depth cabinet boxes commonly found in standard office and storage furniture builds.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by cabinet installers, carpenters, or experienced DIYers using a drill, screwdriver, and a drawer slide jig or level for alignment. Ensure the cabinet box and drawer face are square before fastening slides to prevent binding. Mount both slides at the same height on opposing cabinet walls for proper drawer travel. Confirm the drawer box depth matches the 18-inch slide length before installation.
