If you don’t want to purchase furniture sliders, there are several household items that can be used as makeshift sliders. Thick towels or blankets placed under furniture legs can reduce friction and make it easier to slide the furniture without causing damage to the floor. Additionally, plastic or paper plates can be placed under each leg for easy sliding. You can also cut up pieces of a cardboard box to slide beneath the legs of the furniture.

Sliding cabinet drawers are great storage solutions for busy kitchens, but they can fall into disrepair if any component bends or gets stuck. You can fix this type of sliding drawer problem by applying lubricant to the slides, checking the roller wheels for issues, and keeping the slides clean. In the event of an off-track slider, repair or straighten out any bends to get it back on track.

Careful measurement is crucial—measure multiple times and account for hardware thickness, seasonal wood movement, and clearance requirements. Test-fit components before final assembly, and consider building one drawer as a prototype before cutting materials for multiple units.
