The high technology of the modern world, as well as the constant competition of many manufacturers, has successfully contributed to the development and improvement of numerous solutions and methods for the manufacture of furniture and fittings for it. Sliding rails for slide drawers, which required some work to move the drawers, gave way to an easy and reliable roller and ball. This made it possible to satisfy the increased demands of society and make the life of every person easier and more comfortable. In this article, we will consider the differences and features of each of these types of modern and technological fittings.
Roller guides for drawers in the construction markets appeared relatively recently - only in the early 90s of the last century.
It is natural that such technological pleasure was considered quite expensive, and not everyone could afford it. With the development of technology, furniture fittings of this type spread more and more, its cost fell, and it was already much easier to purchase it. At present, guides for drawers that use rollers in their design are used by many manufacturing companies for the manufacture of all kinds of furniture. The technological accessories used have many advantages, including ease of installation, the ability to mount on uneven surfaces without transmitting distortion, a symmetrical arrangement with respect to a single vertical wall, smooth ride and noiseless movement of the box. Drawer rails have a light and simple construction, the main elements of which are aluminum rails and, in fact, the rollers.
Thanks to these features, such furniture fittings can easily satisfy all the requirements of the buyer. In addition, the undoubted advantage can be considered the many colors, structural and production solutions that will allow you to choose the kit you need. In addition, at the request of the customer, you can install additional system designs that will provide full or partial extension of the shuflyada.
In turn, ball guides for drawers are considered perhaps the most serious threat and an important competitor to the above systems. Despite the fact that the design and production technology of such mechanisms is somewhat more complicated, they are no less common. A distinctive feature is the replacement of the rollers with balls of wheels, which are fixed on one side on each metal trough, while the other slides freely on them. Such guides for drawers with ease provide a reliable and stable position both inside the rest of the structure and outside relative to the horizontal and vertical plane. This system is widely known for its excellent features, which include smooth movement and quiet running. In addition, the drawer can be pushed back with a little effort. However, ball guides for drawers still have considerable cost, which somewhat prevents their widespread use.
