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

14 Inch Soft Close Drawer Slides For Smooth Access

14 inch soft close drawer slides in the Hickory Hardware 1055 series use ball bearing construction to support full extension travel, so the drawer can open its full length and expose the back area for easy reach during daily use. The soft close mechanism slows the last part of the stroke, pulling the drawer shut quietly, which matters in kitchens and bathrooms where repeated drawer use can otherwise create noise. A side mount design positions the slides along the drawer sides, supporting typical cabinet construction workflows. The 14 inch length suits drawers designed around that nominal depth, helping align case and drawer layouts. An unhanded design means each slide works on either side, which simplifies stocking and installation. The zinc, cadmium finish on these Belwith Keeler slides provides a uniform appearance that fits common cabinet interiors while identifying the specific 1055 series part.

Job-Ready Details Of These Side Mount Slides

• The full extension travel on this side mount slide lets the drawer open completely, which exposes stored items at the back and reduces time spent reaching or rearranging during everyday cabinet use.
• The soft close mechanism built into the 1055 series drawer slide slows closing motion near the cabinet, which helps prevent slamming and provides a controlled, quieter close on frequently used drawers.
• The ball bearing design in these drawer slides supports smooth, consistent movement under load, which helps drawers start and stop predictably during repeated opening and closing cycles.
• The 14 inch length specified for this slide matches cabinets built for that depth, which supports layout planning when sizing drawers and helps coordinate case dimensions with hardware selection.
• The unhanded configuration allows the same slide to mount on either side of the drawer, which streamlines inventory and reduces part sorting on the bench during installation.

Full Extension Side Mount Layout And Fit

These full extension side mount drawer slides place the runners along the drawer sides, which suits standard cabinet carcasses where side clearance is planned around ball bearing slides. The 14 inch length supports drawer boxes that are proportioned to that dimension, allowing cabinet makers to coordinate depth with the specified slide. Because the 1055 series gets the drawer fully out of the opening, the back corners remain visible for cleaning and access. The soft close mechanism works at the cabinet end of travel, so drawers can be pushed shut in a normal motion and then eased home by the built-in device. The unhanded construction keeps left and right positions identical, which allows installers to treat each member of the pair the same way during mounting.

Using Hickory Hardware P1055 14 Drawer Slides On Projects

Where These Full Extension Slides Fit Best

The Hickory Hardware P1055/14-2C drawer slide suits cabinets that call for a 14 inch full extension member, such as many kitchen and bathroom drawers sized for that depth. The side mount format matches face frame or frameless cases that allocate clearance along the drawer sides instead of under the box. Because the slide is unhanded, shops working on runs of similar cabinets can pull pairs from the same stock position without separating left and right, which simplifies staging. The zinc, cadmium finish aligns with typical cabinet interiors, so the hardware visually recedes when drawers are open. As a side mount ball bearing unit, it fits applications that need access to the entire drawer length, such as utensil, vanity, or general storage drawers.

Details That Support Repeatable Drawer Performance

The full extension travel of this 1055 series slide brings the drawer box all the way out, which keeps content in view and reduces the habit of over-pulling or racking a partially extended drawer. The integrated soft close feature engages near the cabinet, pulling the drawer shut in a controlled way that reduces impact on the slide members over time. Ball bearing construction provides a consistent glide throughout the stroke, helping aligned drawers stay square in operation. The 14 inch length gives a fixed reference point when cutting drawer sides and planning cabinet depths, improving consistency across a project line. Because the slides are unhanded, installers can repeat the same installation steps on both sides, which supports faster setups and fewer layout errors. The Belwith Keeler branding and specific P1055/14-2C part number identify the slide for future reorders or matching replacements on service work.
