How to Remove a Drawer with Full Extension Ball Bearing Glides

HOW TO VIDEO: Most of the dressers and chests we offer come with full extension ball bearing glides.
When it comes time to move the furniture, you might want to remove the drawers to make it a little easier.
The glides have simple release levers and, in this video, you’ll see just how easy it is to pull out and replace the drawers!

What if the levers break off? How do you get the drawer out?

Hi @nmoorer4964! If the lever is broken, you're likely going to need to use something thin, like a screwdriver or small metal rod, to slide in and act like the plastic lever.
Depending on what side the the lever is broken, you'd lift or lower what's left of the broken lever with the screwdriver/tool, and then pull out and replace.
Remember, on drawers, one lever lifts up and one lever goes down. So if the one you push down is working properly, then you'd want to attempt to push the broken one up with the screwdriver, or vice versa.
If the plastic piece is broken off entirely, it might not be removable.
We hope that helps!
