The Knape and Vogt 8815 Series is a 12 inch side-mount ball bearing drawer slide rated 190 lb per pair, with 1 inch of over-travel that carries the drawer past full extension. It is built for heavy storage and utility drawers where the load exceeds the standard 100 lb cabinet class and the drawer needs to clear a counter overhang or deep face frame. Zinc finish provides dependable indoor corrosion resistance in a working finish that holds up in shop, garage, and commercial environments.
Most kitchen and utility drawers run on 100 lb class slides, but shop drawers loaded with tools, heavy storage drawers in a garage cabinet, and commercial utility pulls can easily exceed that threshold. The 8815 series steps in at 190 lb per pair, covering loads that would push a standard cabinet slide past its rating. The 1 inch of over-travel adds practical reach: when the drawer sits under a countertop overhang or behind a thick face frame, that extra inch means the rear contents are actually visible and reachable at full open rather than tucked just out of reach. This is a standard-motion slide — no soft-close, no detent, no spring — so the drawer stays exactly where it is left, which suits work surfaces and utility pulls where a closing mechanism would interfere.
The 8815 is cold-formed steel with a zinc electroplate finish. Zinc is the workhorse finish for side-mount ball bearing slides: functional, corrosion-resistant in dry indoor environments, and durable enough for shop and commercial cabinet work where a decorative finish is unnecessary. The zinc tone reads as a neutral bright silver in the cabinet interior and sits mostly out of sight once the drawer is closed. This is an indoor finish — for wet or washdown environments, a stainless grade would be the right call.
The 8815 suits cabinet shops, contractors, and facilities builders who are speccing drawers that carry real weight indoors: tool storage in a shop cabinet, heavy-duty kitchen storage, commercial millwork with loaded utility drawers, and any drawer positioned under an overhanging worktop. The 3/4 inch side clearance per side is wider than the 1/2 inch standard, so the drawer box must be sized to account for that before cutting. In face-frame cabinets, rear mounting support is required — add series-compatible rear mounting brackets, sold separately. This SKU ships as a Bulk-Pack, making it practical for shops running multiple drawers at once.
This series requires 3/4 inch of side clearance per side — wider than the 1/2 inch standard on most side-mount ball bearing slides. Build the drawer box 1-1/2 inches narrower than the cabinet opening to hit that clearance on both sides.
No. 12 inches is the closed length of the slide. Because this is an over-travel model, the drawer member extends the full slide length plus 1 additional inch — the drawer travels past the cabinet face rather than stopping at it.
No. The 8815 is a standard-motion slide — no damper, no spring, and no detent. The drawer stays wherever it is left. If a closing feature matters for the application, look at the soft-close or hold-in variants in this category.
No. The 8815 is non-handed, so both slides in the pair are identical. Order the quantity that matches your drawer count without sorting for handedness.
Yes, but the rear of the slide needs support. In face-frame construction, add series-compatible rear mounting brackets to carry the back end of the slide. Those brackets are sold separately.
When the load is real and the drawer needs to travel past the cabinet face, the 8815 series delivers — 190 lb capacity, 1 inch of over-travel, and a zinc finish ready for the demands of shop and commercial cabinet work.
