Shoutout to the guy who saw my drawer slides and said 'You know you can adjust those, right?'

I was installing a set of Blum undermount slides for a client in Denver and had them totally cranked down, thinking tighter was better. He pointed out the little hex screw for fine-tuning the side-to-side play, which I had completely missed in the instructions. Anyone have a favorite brand for slides that are easier to set up?

Read a blog post that said Accuride slides have pretty clear setup guides with good pictures.

A friend of mine used them for a kitchen drawer rebuild last month. He said the instructions were a total lifesaver because the pictures showed every single step. Apparently they even point out the easy mistakes to make, like getting the mounting holes mixed up. He's not a pro at all and he got it done in an afternoon without any extra help. Makes a huge difference when the guide doesn't leave you guessing.
