Hickory Hardware 14" 3/4 Extension Self-Close Epoxy Coated Euro Slides 1700 Series, Unhanded Side Mount White - P1700/14-W

14 Inch Self Close Drawer Slide For Everyday Use

14 inch self close drawer slide describes this Hickory Hardware 1700 Series roller and polyslide bottom mount drawer slide that supports drawers carrying up to 75 lb, so standard storage loads stay supported in regular cabinet use. The 3/4 extension travel lets the drawer open far enough to see and reach stored items while still keeping part of the drawer supported inside the cabinet. The self-closing feature pulls the drawer fully shut at the end of travel, which helps drawers stay closed in normal use without extra effort. This slide is unhanded and side mount, so the same part can be installed on either side of the drawer, simplifying product selection for multiple cabinet openings. The white finish gives a clean appearance that blends with light-colored casework, which suits many residential and shop cabinet interiors.

Key Slide Details That Support Cabinet Work

• The 14 inch length sets the slide up for drawers sized to standard cabinet depths, which helps match common base and utility cabinet dimensions in shops and homes.
• The 3/4 extension travel allows most of the drawer box to clear the face frame or front, so stored items remain visible and reachable without fully overextending the drawer.
• The self-closing feature engages near the end of travel to pull the drawer shut, which helps reduce partially open drawers in busy work areas.
• The bottom mount design supports the drawer from underneath, which helps stabilize movement under load during everyday opening and closing.
• The 75 lb load rating keeps typical household and shop storage within capacity, which supports use for a range of tools, supplies, and general contents.
• The white finish gives a neutral, bright look inside cabinets, which suits painted or light laminate interiors that call for a consistent appearance.

Mounting Details For The Bottom Mount Euro Slide

This roller and polyslide 3/4 extension bottom mount drawer slide works as a side mount, so it fits along the drawer sides while supporting from below. Being unhanded means the same P1700/14-W slide part installs on either the left or right, which simplifies stocking and layout when multiple drawers in a run use the same hardware. The 14 inch length provides a clear reference when sizing drawer boxes relative to cabinet depth, so the slide travel matches the cabinet interior for smooth operation. With the bottom mount configuration helping steady the drawer under weight, the 75 lb rating applies to typical drawer use where the slide supports the moving load.

Drawer Slide Use And Performance On Real Jobs

Where This 14 Inch Slide Works Best

This Hickory Hardware 14 inch 3/4 extension self-close epoxy coated Euro slide fits applications that call for a side mount drawer slide with bottom mount support under everyday loads. The 75 lb capacity aligns with drawers holding common tools, kitchen items, or shop supplies, so storage in cabinets remains practical without overbuilding the hardware. The white epoxy coated Euro style finish pairs well with painted, melamine, or light laminate interiors, which keeps hardware visually consistent when the drawer is open. Because the slide is unhanded, the same P1700/14-W unit can be used on both sides of the drawer, which streamlines layout when planning banks of drawers that repeat the same slide throughout a project. The roller and polyslide design provides guided movement along the track, which supports predictable motion over the 3/4 extension travel. In cabinets where full extension is not required, this travel still exposes most of the drawer box for access while keeping some support inside the case.

Why The 1700 Series Details Matter In Use

The self-closing feature on this 1700 Series slide takes over during the last part of closing, which helps drawers seat consistently against the front without constant manual adjustment. That behavior supports a uniform finished look across multiple drawers, since each drawer is drawn into the same closed position by the slide mechanism. The 3/4 extension travel limits how far the drawer projects from the cabinet, which can be useful where walkways or work aisles run close to casework and reduced projection is preferred. The 14 inch length also coordinates with cabinet depths commonly found in residential and shop installations, so drawer construction can follow familiar sizing. With bottom mount support contributing to heavy duty maximum stability, the slide helps control side-to-side play under load, which supports smooth operation when drawers are opened and closed many times during daily work. Sold in both broken and full box quantities, with discount available for full box or full case orders, this slide suits both single-job needs and larger cabinet runs.
