The GSlide GS4340 RB is a metal rear-mount bracket that supports the back end of a drawer slide in face-frame cabinet installations, where the cabinet side is set back from the face frame and the slide needs a rear anchor point.
In a frameless cabinet, a drawer slide screws directly to the flat interior side panel along its full length. In a face-frame cabinet, that direct mounting is not possible at the rear of the slide because the cabinet side is recessed behind the face frame. Without a rear bracket, the back end of the slide hangs unsupported, which causes the slide to rack, bind, or sag under load. This bracket solves that problem by giving the slide a solid rear anchor inside the face-frame opening. It is a required component for face-frame installs with GSlide slides, not an optional add-on.
The bracket is formed metal, sized and punched to position the slide at the correct height and depth for GSlide compatibility. Screw-on mounting means no special tooling is needed: drive the screws, seat the slide, and the rear end is supported. The non-handed form simplifies inventory since a single bracket serves both sides of the cabinet.
Cabinet shops and installers building or retrofitting face-frame cabinets with GSlide drawer slides will need this bracket for every drawer position. It is also the right part for contractors replacing slides in existing face-frame kitchens, bath vanities, and entertainment centers where GSlide hardware is already in use. Because drawer slide rear brackets are series-specific, this bracket is for GSlide slides only. Do not substitute it for rear brackets from other brands or series, even if the physical dimensions look close.
Yes, in most face-frame installations the slide cannot reach the cabinet side at the rear, so a bracket is required at each slide position. Check the GSlide installation guide for the specific clearance and bracket placement that applies to your slide length.
No. Rear mounting brackets are engineered to the slide series they support. This bracket is designed for GSlide slides and should not be used with Blum, Grass, Hettich, KV, or other brand slides, even if the screw pattern appears similar.
The bracket is non-handed, so the same part installs on the left or right side of the cabinet. Order one bracket per slide position.
The bracket uses standard screw-on mounting. Specific screw size is not listed in the available data; refer to the GSlide installation instructions for the recommended fastener.
Skipping the rear bracket is the most common reason a face-frame drawer install binds or fails early. Ordering this bracket alongside the slides means the job goes together correctly the first time.
