Hickory Hardware 14" Soft-Close Side Mount Full Extension 100 lb Ball Bearing Drawer Slide, Zinc, P1055/14-2C

Zinc Soft-Close Ball Bearing Slides for Compact and Mid-Depth Drawers

The Hickory Hardware 1055 Series is a 14 inch full-extension soft-close side-mount ball bearing drawer slide, rated 100 lb per pair. At 14 inches, it suits bathroom vanities, nightstands, compact kitchen base drawers, and any cabinet where a shorter slide length is the right fit — without giving up the damped close that keeps drawers from slamming.

Key Features

• Integrated soft-close damper catches the drawer near the end of travel and settles it shut quietly, even when the drawer is pushed with force.
• Full extension brings the entire drawer out to the cabinet face so nothing at the back is hidden or out of reach.
• 100 lb weight rating per pair handles a fully loaded vanity or utility drawer with room to spare.
• Non-handed design means the same slide fits the left and right sides — no sorting required at the bench.
• Steel ball bearings in full-length raceways deliver smooth, consistent travel from the first pull through years of daily use.
• Zinc finish provides standard indoor corrosion resistance on the steel members.

Where the 14 Inch Length Fits Best

Slide length is matched to the cabinet's interior depth — a 14 inch slide suits drawers in compact furniture and cabinetry where a longer slide simply will not fit. Bathroom vanities, bedroom nightstands, small utility cabinets, and kitchen island drawers with shallower depths are natural homes for this length. The full-extension design means the short slide still clears the whole drawer out to the face, so the back corner of a toiletry drawer or bedside organizer is as easy to reach as the front.

Steel Construction and Zinc Finish

Cold-formed steel members give the slide its structural backbone, and the zinc finish keeps the steel protected through years of indoor service. Zinc is the workhorse finish in this segment — corrosion-resistant in dry interior environments, functional rather than decorative, and visible only when the drawer is fully open. It works cleanly inside painted, melamine, or wood-finish cabinet interiors without drawing attention.

Specifying and Sourcing This Slide

Cabinet shops running vanity boxes, furniture makers building nightstand cases, and contractors finishing bathroom renovations will all find this slide straightforward to spec. The non-handed slide simplifies purchasing — one line item covers both sides of every drawer. Side clearance is 1/2 inch per side, so the drawer box is built 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening. In face-frame cabinets, the back end of the slide needs rear support: add the matching rear mounting brackets, sold separately, before laying out the install. Frameless cabinet interiors mount the slide directly to the side panel.
