Drawer Repair
existing drawer fronts, boxes, fixings and compatible runners
Common situations
An uneven gap may result from loose runner fixings, a detached front or movement in the cabinet itself. Show neighbouring drawers as well as the fault. Adjustment is useful only when the parts and the material supporting them remain suitable.
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.
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.
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.

Monegeetta property context
Monegeetta sits within the existing Greater Melbourne coverage. For drawer repair, measurements, product information and access details are more useful than assumptions about the suburb's buildings. Runner wear, a distorted box and damaged fixing support can produce similar symptoms but need different repair decisions. For a Monegeetta 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.
