    • Make sure the track is straight by measuring the height of the screw holes. If the front and back screw holes are more than a half inch apart, see guide for drilling new holes.

    • This only works if the height of the drawer doesn't change.

What about wooden drawers, ie without metal runners, as used for millions of years (approx.)!

The kind littered all over my home, being an old man as I am. Or don`t you know (he he!)

For wooden drawers without metal runners, I would rub the sliding parts with some soap. The glycerin with help with the friction. Good luck!

I don't think that WD40 is a good idea for long term lubrication. It surely cleans the tracks and the rollers but it evaporates quickly. I would suggest cleaning rollers with WD40, then wipe out any WD40 remains with a kitchen paper towel and finally spray some white grease or general light oil lubricant such as the one for sowing machines.

A tip from a cabinet maker is to lubricate wooden drawer runners with an ordinary candle. The wax will remain slippery for years!

For wooden drawers the best way to fix is to rub the sliding parts with candlewax or parrafine. Your drawers will slide like if you were on ice.
