I want to mount a drawer in our pantry on a 44A using the drawer full extension slide type Entegra uses for the large drawer under the sink. No problem finding the slides, what I can not find are back brackets that go into the slides that would allow them to mount to the back cabinet face.

The only brackets I am finding are the L type that Entegra uses for the wire shelves where the slides sit on the wood shelf.

I know that they are out there because Entegra is using them, just can't find them.

Any help is appreciated.

I bought a set at Lowe's. They were on the bottom shelf below all of the different drawer slides.

Send an email to parts@entegracoach.com--describe the part you are looking for and include pictures if you can. They'll get back with you on the part number and price if you'd like to order. I've worked with Sandra and she's awesome!

Thanks Chuck & Debbie - Thought about EC parts, but they are so expensive. Still might want to order a drawer from them though. Chuck, will check at Lowes. I think that the mounts I want are for a drawer center slide, EC is just using that style for their end slides because they don't have a real platform in the pantry to mount to the side walls.

Try Rockler or Lee Valley Tools or one of the sites specializing in cabinetry. IMO depending on the application some of the factory slides are too wimpy to do the job long term. If you want something better consider a heavy duty slide. When I replaced the slides on our 2013 RBQ Pantry I used Accuride 500 lb rated units and never had a problem after that.

Rob,

i very well may use the accuride for the pantry as well. On my third set from Entegra and was planning on discussing that with the folks at homecoming.

I scrapped the Entegra panty slides that broke on our first trip. I replaced them with the heaviest Lowe's had on the shelf. I also used Rob's idea of a bolt through the top of the panty and we haven't had any more problems in 3 years.

I bought 200 lbs slides online, but it was a major project to modify the pantry, so I tried the heavier slides that fit first and they worked. I still have the 200 lbs slides just in case.

Like Chuck said my mod wasn't plug and play and required some woodworking changes because the Accuride are thicker and taller.

Fortunately the pantry on the 2013 RBQ at that time (one piece about 6 feet tall) was designed such that the changes were possible with just a bit of table saw trimming to the base block and none to the cabinet boxes themselves.

Adding Accuride, say to a box type drawer, might involve resizing the width of the drawer box which could be complicated, so sticking with a slide that has the same thickness profile no doubt will be easiest.

Not familiar with the pantry on the A. Will be at homecoming too so maybe we can discuss...
