The Knape & Vogt 4450 series is a 24 inch, full-extension, soft-close side-mount drawer slide in a zinc finish — the workhorse choice when you need a dependable, neutral-finish slide that disappears into the cabinet and keeps the drawer quiet on every close.
A 24 inch soft-close slide covers the most common drawer depth in residential kitchen and bath cabinetry — base cabinet drawers, utility drawer banks, and bedroom dresser boxes all land in this range. The full-extension travel means a loaded drawer pulls completely clear of the cabinet opening, which matters in deep base cabinets where the back third of a drawer is otherwise wasted. The soft-close damper makes this a practical choice wherever slam noise is a concern: production kitchen jobs, spec homes, and apartment renovations where quiet operation is part of the finished product. The low-profile body is the deciding feature in cabinets where the drawer box and cabinet side leave minimal room for hardware.
Steel ball-bearing members give the slide its load capacity and cycle durability. The zinc finish is a functional protective coating rather than a decorative statement — it protects the steel through years of indoor use and presents a consistent, neutral appearance against the cabinet interior. For shops running zinc-finish pulls, hinges, or metal cabinet components, the zinc slide finish ties the visible hardware together. This slide is built for dry indoor cabinetry; it is not rated for wet or exterior applications.
The 4450 series is sold in a Bulk-Pack, which suits cabinet shops and contractors working through a steady volume of drawers. The non-handed, side-mount design installs with 1/2 inch clearance per side, so build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the opening. The slide works in both face-frame and frameless cabinets — in face-frame installations, confirm rear support is available for the back of the slide. Homeowners doing a single-drawer replacement will find the bulk packaging straightforward; production shops will appreciate not sorting handed parts at the assembly table.
Zinc and stainless are visually similar under cabinet lighting, but they are different materials and finishes. If an exact match to stainless hardware matters for your project, order the stainless finish variant. For most interior cabinet work where the slide body is not directly visible, zinc reads as a clean, neutral metal.
Match the nominal slide length to the drawer box depth — a 24 inch slide is built for a 24 inch drawer box. The cabinet interior depth needs to accommodate the slide length plus any rear mounting clearance.
The soft-close damper engages on the closing stroke only, slowing the drawer as it approaches shut. Opening pull is standard ball-bearing action — smooth and direct.
Yes, but face-frame cabinets set the cabinet side back from the front frame, so the rear of the slide needs a mounting surface or rear bracket. Plan the installation to provide support at the back end of the slide.
The KV 4450 in zinc gives you full-extension travel, quiet soft-close action, and a neutral finish in a bulk-friendly package — exactly what a busy shop needs to keep drawers moving and jobs on schedule.
