Drawer Repair
existing drawer fronts, boxes, fixings and compatible runners
Common situations
Loose corners, a damaged base or swollen panels can affect the whole drawer, even if the runner still moves. Identify moisture exposure or previous repairs. Major reconstruction or bespoke replacement boxes are outside a minor furniture repair assumption.
A loose drawer front can involve its connecting hardware or the material around the fixing. Show both the front and accessible attachment points. Repeatedly tightening a screw into damaged material may not provide the support needed for normal use.
A worn small component may be replaceable when a matching part exists and the remaining box is sound. The decision depends on condition and availability. A photo-based enquiry should not promise that discontinued hardware can be sourced or adapted.
Planning the work
Runner wear, a distorted box and damaged fixing support can produce similar symptoms but need different repair decisions. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
Assess suitable minor drawer repairs, compatible runner replacement and front alignment while retaining sound components where practical. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Eumemmerring property context
An occupied Eumemmerring property may need preparation before drawer repair can begin. Show the drawer open and closed, its runners and the affected fixing, without forcing or removing a jammed drawer. Mention rooms that need to remain usable and identify who can agree the scope and arrange entry. For a Eumemmerring quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
Service overview
Runner length, fixing positions and mechanism type all matter when replacement is considered. A visually similar fitting may not work with the existing box. Share labels or product records and avoid buying parts until compatibility has been checked.
Describe where movement stops and whether the drawer sits unevenly. Overfilling, runner damage and a distorted box can feel similar in use. Avoid forcing it closed; a wider photograph can reveal the relationship between the drawer front and surrounding cabinet.
Remove contents if this can be done safely without forcing the drawer. Weight can conceal how the runner behaves and make handling difficult. Let Fix Nik know if valuables or a jammed mechanism prevent access so preparation can be discussed.
The agreed service covers suitable furniture drawer fixings, fronts, compatible runners and minor non-structural joinery. Exclusions: Cabinet door hinges (existing Cabinet Repair), appliance-integrated systems, plumbing, major built-in alteration, bespoke manufacture.
