Hettich Quadro YOU 400mm Soft-Close Full Extension Undermount Drawer Slides, Ball Bearing Right hand Zinc - 9256865

Hettich Quadro YOU 400mm Drawer Slides For Smooth Access

Hettich Quadro YOU 400mm drawer slides provide a full extension runner that lets the drawer travel its entire length, giving clear access to stored items and simplifying work at the cabinet. This undermount design supports either an Avan Tech YOU system drawer or a wooden drawer configured with the correct catches, so one runner style can serve different construction approaches in the same project. The integrated Silent System delivers soft-close action, which slows the closing movement and helps reduce impact on the cabinet over repeated use. A ball bearing runner design supports steady motion along the slide path, which helps drawers track reliably under typical kitchen or shop loads. This right-hand galvanised steel runner matches the Quadro YOU platform, so it fits into projects using that system while offering corrosion-resistant material for normal indoor cabinet environments.

Key Quadro YOU Runner Details For Project Planning

• The full extension runner design lets the drawer open to its full 400mm depth, improving access to contents and simplifying measuring, loading, and cleaning tasks at the cabinet.
• Compatibility with Avan Tech YOU system drawers means this runner works directly with that platform, supporting consistent hardware choice across a run of cabinets using the same system.
• The option to use a wooden drawer with catches gives flexibility to keep traditional box construction while still using this undermount runner in custom or retrofit work.
• Integrated Silent System soft-close slows the closing stroke, which helps reduce slamming forces on fronts and joints during daily operation in kitchens, baths, or shop storage.
• Load classes XS (10 kg) and M (30 kg) with load capacity to EN 15338, Level 3 indicate the runner is tested for these weight ranges, guiding drawer sizing and contents for typical residential or light commercial use.
• Galvanised steel construction provides a coated steel runner body that supports strength with corrosion resistance appropriate for standard indoor cabinet environments.

Undermount Slide Installation And Fit Considerations

The Quadro YOU undermount configuration positions the runner beneath the drawer, which keeps the hardware out of sight and can simplify aligning drawer fronts on Avan Tech YOU system drawers or wooden boxes built for this runner. The 400mm length defines the cabinet depth this model serves, so case construction can be laid out to match that slide length. This runner is designed for use with catches on wooden drawers, which means drawer box construction needs to incorporate the matching catch components for secure engagement on the slide. Load classes XS and M with EN 15338, Level 3 capacity give a reference for how much weight the runner is designed to carry in typical cabinet duty, which supports planning drawer width, material choice, and likely contents. The right-hand specification identifies this unit as the right-side runner within a pair, so it aligns with handed installation layouts in the Quadro YOU family.

Using Hettich Quadro YOU Slides In Cabinet Builds

Where This Quadro YOU Runner Works Best

This Quadro YOU full extension runner is intended for use with Avan Tech YOU system drawers, so it fits projects built around that specific drawer platform in kitchens, baths, or furniture pieces. The ability to work with wooden drawers by using catches makes the runner useful in custom millwork shops that prefer traditional box construction but want contemporary undermount performance. Its load classes XS (10 kg) and M (30 kg) with EN 15338, Level 3 capacity focus it on typical cabinet storage loads rather than extremely heavy-duty applications, aligning it with cutlery drawers, small utensil storage, bath drawers, or office furniture. The galvanised steel construction supports use in standard interior environments where steel strength and a protective coating help the slide handle everyday humidity around sinks or dishwashers without being an exposed design element.

Details That Support Consistent Drawer Performance

The integrated Silent System on this Quadro YOU runner provides soft-close motion, which cushions the last part of travel and supports quieter operation in open-plan spaces and multi-family housing. Full extension travel across the 400mm length means the drawer front reaches a predictable projection from the cabinet, helping installers set reveals and handle clearances consistently from one cabinet to the next. The ball bearing construction in the runner guides the movement along precise tracks, which supports repeatable alignment and reduces side play under properly planned loads. Load classes XS and M with EN 15338, Level 3 testing give confidence that drawers built within those weight ranges will track properly over normal service, reducing rework related to sagging or binding in standard cabinet use. Matching this right-hand runner with its corresponding left-hand partner keeps the undermount system balanced, supporting square drawer operation on Avan Tech YOU or wooden drawers using the specified catches.
