The Fulterer FR 5001 ECD SMT is a 14 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide with integrated soft-close, rated 100 lb per pair and finished in zinc. It is built for kitchen cabinets, utility drawers, and any interior application where a damped, quiet close matters and the hardware stays hidden beside the box.
A 14 inch slide suits shallower cabinet runs: spice drawers, bathroom vanity drawers, nightstand drawers, and narrow base cabinet pull-outs where a longer slide would crowd the rear of the box. Full extension at this length still pulls the entire drawer out to the cabinet face, so nothing gets buried at the back. The soft-close damper is equally useful in a bedroom or bath setting where slam noise is especially noticeable. For face-frame cabinets, plan on rear mounting brackets to support the back of the slide; those brackets are series-specific and sold separately.
Zinc electroplating over steel is the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides. It protects the steel members through years of indoor cycling, resists the light humidity of a kitchen interior, and stays corrosion-free in normal cabinet environments. The finish is bright and functional, not decorative; because the slide rides beside the drawer box and is mostly out of sight when the drawer is closed, finish choice here is driven by durability and environment rather than aesthetics. This slide is for dry, indoor cabinetry. It is not rated for exterior, wet, or washdown applications.
Cabinet shops running residential kitchen and bath jobs will find the 14 inch length useful for the shallower drawer positions that come up on every project: the top drawer of a vanity, the spice bank beside the range, the drawer stack in a master closet island. Homeowners replacing worn slides or upgrading a dresser or nightstand to soft-close will get a professional-grade result without a complicated install. Designers specifying hardware for quieter, handle-accessible interiors can call out the FR 5001 line knowing the damper is integrated, not an add-on. Sold as a pair per order.
True damped soft-close. The FR 5001 ECD SMT uses an integrated damper that slows the drawer to a controlled, quiet close over the last portion of travel. It is not a ramp or spring self-close, and it will not slam.
No. 14 inches is the closed length of the slide. Because this is a full-extension slide, the drawer travels approximately that full length when opened, bringing the entire box out to the cabinet face. Slide length and drawer travel are separate specs.
No. This slide is non-handed, so both pieces in the pair are identical. Order one pair per drawer regardless of which side each slide goes on.
Yes, but face-frame installation requires rear mounting brackets to support the back end of the slide where the cabinet side is set back from the frame. Rear brackets for this series are sold separately; confirm the correct bracket for the FR 5001 before ordering.
Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening. That leaves 1/2 inch of clearance on each side for the slide.
The Fulterer FR 5001 brings damped closing to a 14 inch full-extension side-mount slide, so shallower drawers in kitchens, baths, and bedrooms close as quietly as the deeper ones alongside them.
