Soft Close Drawer Guides

Many older kitchens have basic hinges and drawer guides. We retrofitted this Murrieta kitchen’s drawer guides with new soft close guides.

Here are the main benefits of soft close drawer guides:

1. Noise reduction - They significantly reduce the slamming noise of regular drawer slides, especially when the drawer is not fully shut. This makes them ideal for kitchens and bedrooms.

2. Less wear and tear - Since the drawer slowly closes itself instead of being slammed shut, it puts less stress on the drawer glides and cabinet itself. This helps extend the lifespan of your cabinets.

3. Safety - Soft close guides prevent pinched fingers since the drawer closes slowly and automatically. This is especially important for households with children.

4. Smooth operation - The slow, controlled closing motion provides a smooth and satisfying experience when shutting drawers.

5. Easy installation - Soft close drawer guides are generally easy to install, requiring only basic tools and fitting into most standard drawer openings.

6. Simplicity - They have no complex mechanical parts to wear out. They use a simple hydraulic dampening system to slow the closing drawer.

In summary, soft close drawer guides provide noise reduction, safety benefits, and less wear and tear on your cabinets while still being easy to install and use. The smooth operation and automatic closing action add convenience and satisfaction.
