Undermount hardware part

John in NM

I'm not familiar with a lot of the undermount hardware these days, we're looking for a replacement rear hanger that broke at work.

It looks like this one:


The guide installed in the picture is a knock off of a standard side mount guide, but ours are a knock off undermount that has a little 1x1 tab at the back that slides in the socket. Pretty sure the cabinet manufacturer used some off brand to avoid paying for name brand stuff, as I've not seen anything quite like it perusing the net on a monday morning.

I think we'll get the site machinist to make up a couple parts tomorrow (that won't break in a few years :D ) but I figured I'd see if anyone knew where to get these things first.

a candidate for some 3-D printer action. If you have a "good" one, perhaps you can scan it?

Actually we do have a printer, but I'd have to get someone to do the model - last kid I had who did modeling was useless for anything else so he's gone and we're looking for another. Going to be quicker to whip a couple up in aluminum I bet, our machinist is very quick.

The irony is that this is a big drawer, and gets all the silverware for the kitchen at work, and it probably has 75lb guides installed - but that little plastic piece won't hold 10lbs over years of use.

I noticed Lee Valley has some drawer glide brackets that look very similar. Not exact though. Just an fyi...

That looks like a old one. The new ones don't have the top part. Also a lot of that hardware is made for a Single Company.
