GSlide 28" Push-to-Open Side Mount Full Extension 100 lb Ball Bearing Drawer Slide, Zinc, GS4260 28

A Push-to-Open Slide That Clears the Way for Handle-Free Fronts

The GSlide G-Slide Series 28 inch push-to-open ball bearing drawer slide brings handle-less drawer design to a standard side-mount installation. Press the drawer front, the mechanism ejects the drawer, and full extension brings the entire box clear of the cabinet opening — all at a 100 lb rating per pair.

Key Features

• Push-to-open mechanism ejects the drawer with a light press on a handle-free front.
• Full-extension travel carries the entire drawer out to the cabinet face so rear contents are fully reachable.
• 100 lb weight rating per pair handles loaded kitchen, bath, or office drawers without strain.
• Steel ball bearings in full-length raceways deliver smooth, consistent travel across a 28 inch stroke.
• Non-handed design means both slides in the pair are identical — no left/right sorting at the bench.
• Zinc-finished steel construction provides standard indoor corrosion resistance on a slide that stays out of sight beside the drawer box.

Where Push-to-Open Makes the Most Sense

Push-to-open slides earn their place in modern flat-front kitchens, integrated appliance bays, and furniture pieces where a visible pull would interrupt a clean surface. The 28 inch length suits deeper base cabinet drawers and kitchen utility drawers where full extension is the difference between reaching the back of the box and rummaging for what is buried there. At 100 lb per pair, this slide handles a loaded pots-and-pans drawer or a deep pantry pull-out without complaint. Because the mechanism is mechanical rather than powered, no wiring or power supply is required — the spring does the work.

One planning note: plain push-to-open slides like this one use a spring ejection mechanism, which takes the place of a closing feature. This slide does not include soft-close damping. If a damped, quiet close matters for the application, choose a combined soft-close and push-to-open system instead.

Materials and Finish

The slide is cold-formed steel with a zinc finish — the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides in cabinet and furniture applications. Zinc protects the steel members through years of indoor use and sits mostly out of view alongside the drawer box. This is not a decorative finish and is not rated for wet, marine, or exterior environments. Stick to dry indoor installations.

Specifying This Slide

The G-Slide Series is a consistent fit for volume cabinet work, renovation hardware, and shop builds where a 100 lb full-extension side-mount slide is the right class and push-to-open is the specified motion. The non-handed design simplifies ordering — one part number covers both sides of every drawer. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave the required 1/2 inch side clearance per side. In face-frame cabinets, rear mounting brackets are needed to support the back end of the slide; those brackets are sold separately and are series-specific, so confirm compatibility before ordering. The slide is sold as a pair.

A Clean Front That Works When You Push It

For cabinet and furniture builds where the design calls for no visible hardware, the GSlide push-to-open slide delivers the mechanism, the load capacity, and the full-extension access in one side-mount package — ordered by the pair and installed without sorting left from right.
