This 12 inch full-extension push-to-open ball bearing drawer slide from GSlide's G-Slide series is built for handle-less cabinetry where pressing the front ejects the drawer. Rated 100 lb per pair, it mounts one per side of the drawer box on standard 1/2 inch clearance, and the non-handed design means one part number covers both sides.
Push-to-open is the right motion feature when the design calls for a clean, uninterrupted drawer front with no hardware visible. A bathroom vanity, a modern flat-front kitchen base cabinet, or a built-in media console with concealed storage all benefit from the handleless look this slide supports. At 12 inches, the slide suits shallow drawers — spice pullouts, bathroom accessory drawers, small utility drawers under a countertop — where the short depth makes sense but the handleless aesthetic still applies. The push-to-open spring mechanism takes the place of a closing detent, so the drawer stays closed until pressed and then extends on its own.
The slide is cold-formed steel with a zinc finish — the standard corrosion-resistant coating for side-mount ball bearing slides in indoor cabinetry. Zinc protects the steel members through years of regular cycling without adding bulk. Ball bearings run in full-length raceways on both the cabinet and intermediate members, keeping travel smooth even when the drawer is loaded near its rated capacity. This is a functional finish; the slide is visible alongside the open drawer, not concealed beneath it.
Designers and cabinet shops specifying handle-less kitchens or modern bath vanities will find the G-Slide push-to-open the straightforward side-mount solution for that detail. Homeowners retrofitting a single vanity drawer or a pantry pullout to a handle-less front can use this slide without sourcing a specialty undermount system. The 12 inch length and 1/2 inch side clearance fit the standard frameless cabinet side panel directly; face-frame installations need rear mounting support at the back of the slide, with brackets sourced separately for this series. One pair installs one drawer.
No. The push-to-open spring mechanism handles the ejection function; there is no damper on this slide. The drawer opens when pressed and rides freely on ball bearings — it does not self-close or soft-close. If damped closing matters for the application, look for a combined push-to-open and soft-close system.
No — 12 inches is the closed length of the slide. Because this is a full-extension slide, the drawer travels approximately its full length, bringing the entire interior out to the cabinet face. Slide length and drawer travel are separate measurements.
No. The G-Slide is non-handed, so both slides in a pair are the same part. Order by quantity of drawers, not by side.
The slide itself installs in either frameless or face-frame cabinets, but face-frame construction sets the cabinet side back from the frame, so the rear of the slide needs bracket support. Rear mounting brackets for this series are sold separately — plan for them before ordering.
Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave 1/2 inch of side clearance for each slide. That clearance is required for the slide to mount flush and travel without binding.
Handle-less fronts depend entirely on the slide doing its job reliably — a press that doesn't eject cleanly, or a drawer that doesn't stay closed, breaks the whole detail. The G-Slide push-to-open delivers consistent ejection at 100 lb per pair, on a 12 inch full-extension platform that keeps shallow drawers fully accessible without a pull in sight.
