GSlides 28" Over Travel Hold-in anti-rebound Ball Bearing Drawer Slides G-Slides Series, Unhanded Side Mount Zinc - GS4205 28

GSlide 28 Inch Over Travel Drawer Slide Use

GSlide 28 inch over travel drawer slide is a side mount, ball bearing drawer slide that provides full extension travel plus about 1 inch of overtravel, so drawers can open beyond the cabinet face for easier access to stored items in deeper drawers. The 90 lb load rating supports typical residential and light commercial drawer loads, allowing confidently planned storage without overloading the slide in normal cabinet applications. The unhanded side mount design lets the same slide work on either side of the drawer, which simplifies layout and reduces part mix-ups on the job. The telescopic movement on ball bearings gives a smooth sliding action under load, which helps drawers open and close consistently. The GSlides Series designation and GS4205 28 part number identify this specific 28 inch slide for repeat ordering and matching existing installations where the same series is already in use.

Key GSlides GS4205 28 Performance Details

• The full extension travel allows the drawer to pull completely out of the cabinet opening, so items at the back of the drawer are reachable without shifting front contents, which speeds access in day-to-day use.
• The 1 inch plus overtravel moves the drawer slightly past the cabinet front, which provides additional reach into the drawer box and helps when face frames or overhanging tops would otherwise limit access.
• The 90 lb load rating defines the slide's ability to support drawer contents, so installers can size drawers for typical storage without exceeding the intended performance range in standard cabinetry.
• The 1/2 inch side profile keeps the slide relatively slim, which leaves more interior drawer width available within standard cabinet openings and helps in tight side-clearance applications.
• The telescopic movement on ball bearings supports smooth extension through the entire travel, which reduces sticking and helps drawers feel consistent across a bank of cabinets.
• The non-handed lever disconnect allows the drawer member to be released for removal from either side, which simplifies installation, adjustment, and service work in the field.

Side Mount Fit, Clearances, And Installation Traits

This side mount drawer slide is designed for 1/2 inch, or 12.7 mm, plus 0.8 mm minus 0 side clearance, so cabinet and drawer measurements can be planned around this dimension for reliable fit. The 32 mm hole patterns in the slide align with common system boring layouts, which speeds installation in cabinets drilled on that standard. The rolled profile is shaped to improve load transfer along the slide members, which supports its stated 90 lb load rating over the full extension and overtravel. The Anochrome finish provides a zinc appearance on the slide, which visually matches other zinc-finished components in many cabinet interiors.

Using This Full Extension Over Travel Slide

Where The 28 Inch Side Mount Slide Fits Best

The 28 inch length suits deeper cabinet drawers where full extension and extra reach are important, such as tall pantry pullouts or long base cabinet drawers. The full extension travel ensures the drawer clears the cabinet opening to its designed depth, which helps when drawer boxes are built close to cabinet interior length. The 1 inch plus overtravel is useful on installations with face frames or thick doors, because it moves the drawer further out so the box sides and back are easier to reach. The side mount configuration works with drawer designs planning for 1/2 inch per side clearance, so it fits standard construction methods that already assume this space alongside the drawer.

Why These GSlide Details Support Repeatable Results

The 32 mm hole patterns allow the slide to align with system-bored cabinet sides, which helps installers position each slide consistently and repeat dimensions across multiple cabinets. The non-handed lever disconnect means the same GS4205 28 slide can be used on either left or right side, which reduces inventory complexity and makes replacements straightforward when matching the existing GSlides Series. The hold-in detent keeps the drawer in the closed position until a pull force is applied, which helps drawers stay shut under normal room vibration or minor movement around the cabinet. The rolled profile is designed to carry load efficiently along the ball bearing races, which supports the 90 lb rating through repeated cycles of opening and closing. The fact that this slide meets or exceeds performance standards as established by KCMA, BIFMA, and BHMA indicates it has been built to align with recognized industry performance criteria, which supports consistent function in cabinet and furniture applications.
