The Knape and Vogt 8407 Series is a 16 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide, rated 100 lb per pair, with a hold-in anti-rebound detent that keeps the drawer shut after closing. Finished in zinc and sold in bulk, it is built for shops and contractors who need a dependable, no-extras slide at working volume.
A standard-motion slide leaves the drawer wherever it stops. The 8407's hold-in anti-rebound detent adds one useful behavior: when the drawer is pushed closed, a mechanical catch keeps it there and prevents it from rebounding open. There is no spring and no damper — the drawer does not self-close or soft-close — but once shut, it stays shut. That makes the 8407 a practical choice for office drawers, shop benches, and utility cabinets where an unexpected open drawer is a nuisance or a hazard. The detent releases with a normal pull.
The 8407 is cold-formed steel with a zinc electroplate finish. Zinc is the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides: it handles the humidity and temperature swings of an indoor shop or kitchen environment without surface degradation over years of cycling. The finish is functional, not decorative — these slides sit beside the drawer box and are largely out of sight in a closed cabinet. If a visible or color-matched finish is a priority, zinc may not be the right call; the 8407 series is also available in other finishes to suit that need.
At 16 inches, this slide suits shallower cabinets and shorter drawer boxes — bathroom vanities, base cabinets with a pull-out tray, and shop storage where a 22 inch slide would overhang the back panel. The 100 lb per-pair rating covers standard kitchen and utility loads without stepping up to the heavier-duty class. The Bulk-Pack format is aimed at cabinet shops ordering by the project rather than by the pair: one carton covers multiple drawers, and the non-handed design means no pre-sorting before installation. In face-frame cabinets, add rear mounting brackets at the back of the cabinet side — the slide needs support at both ends, and those brackets are sold separately.
No. 16 inches is the closed length of the slide. Because it is full extension, the drawer member travels approximately the full slide length, bringing the entire drawer out to the cabinet face — but slide length and travel are two separate specs, not the same number.
No. The detent is mechanical catch only — it holds the drawer shut and prevents rebound after you push it closed. There is no spring or ramp to pull the drawer in. Push the drawer to closed and the detent holds it; pull it open and the detent releases.
The 8407 requires 1/2 inch of side clearance per slide, so the drawer box is built 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave that gap on each side.
No. The slide is non-handed, so the same part fits either side of the drawer without modification.
Side-mount slides need rear support in face-frame cabinets. You will need rear mounting brackets at the back of the cabinet side; these are series-specific and sold separately. The 8407 mounts directly in frameless cabinets without additional hardware.
The KV 8407 in zinc delivers full extension, a hold-in anti-rebound detent, and a 100 lb rating per pair in a bulk format sized for production work — the specs a cabinet shop needs without features that drive the price beyond the application.
