Drawer Repair
existing drawer fronts, boxes, fixings and compatible runners
Service overview
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.
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.
A drawer-like front can conceal an appliance or service connection. Identify the unit before requesting work. Appliance mechanisms, plumbing and major built-in alterations are excluded from this furniture drawer service and may require the appropriate specialist.
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.
Common situations
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.
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.
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.
Wollert property context
Wollert 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. Wollert sits near Craigieburn, Somerton, Donnybrook and Epping. Fix Nik can review practical maintenance requests across this part of Greater Melbourne, with the job scope and property conditions guiding timing, materials and the appropriate service.

Planning the work
Show the drawer open and closed, its runners and the affected fixing, without forcing or removing a jammed drawer. Keep labels and instructions available so the item can be identified accurately instead of relying on a general description.
