How To - Fix Ball Bearing Strips on Drawer Slider

- I recently received a piece of furniture that was damaged in transit, and all the interior drawers were misaligned, so the drawers fell out. I was able to fix the furniture to get the drawers re-aligned, but all the drawer sliders had popped off and their ball bears were no longer in one piece. I was finally able to figure out how to re-insert ball bearing strips into a drawer slider with ease. I hope this helps someone else who is looking to make the same fix/repair!
You literally saved my life. My mom was cussing me out about how I broke this thing and because of your video I was able to fix it back thank you so much. You don’t know how much of a God sent you are. Thank you.
Have you mom watch this video to understand this is common problem.
Couldnt find instructions anywhere when I received a damaged product. This worked perfectly and saved me a lot of money trying to ship it back or get someone to repair! Thanks a million!
I literally cannot thank you enough!!!!!! I tried forever today to figure this out, decided to buy new sliders, then thought….I bet someone on TH-cam can help me get those ball bearings back in. All fixed!!!!! Thank you!!!
Worked perfect! Of course my husband and I had been trying for almost 45 minutes prior to finding this video! Followed step by step and had it done in minutes!
Thank you. I had no idea how to fix a broken slider and had wasted the best part of an hour trying different things. I was stumped. Five minutes after watching your video, the slider was fixed and installed.
This was such an easy fix after seeing this video. I’d been messing around with this for half an hour without taking the entire piece apart. I decided to look up a fix on TH-cam. Very clear, simple instructions and great video. Well done! Thank you!
I wish I would’ve watched this over an hour ago! That’s how long I been messing with this drawer! Thank you.
Thanks, husband upstairs trying to figure it out for the last hour! Thank you and thank goodness for YOU TUBE
THANK YOU!!! It worked. I fixed the broken drawer on my desk. I feel so powerful now. God bless you!
Thank you. Spent 25 min trying to figure this out and then 2min with your video.
Adam, thank you for this video! You have quickly brought life back to a broken dresser, and brought peace into my house.
This video was very helpful, had been trying to fix it with my husband for about an hour until I found this video. Thank you!!!
Thanks! The metal drawer slide on my GE Freezer sliding drawer just came off and I used these instructions to put it back together! The bearing strips and the drawer slide for a freezer are assembled exactly the same way!
Thank you! So helpful and prevented me from wasting even more time trying to get them back in without taking the whole strip out.
Good camera angles. Very clear. I watched a dozen videos and this was the only one that helped me get my slider back together.
Dude, you came to my rescue when I was at the point where I was going to order new drawer slides! I did one more search for resolving this issue and discovered your video. It worked perfectly! Thanks so much for going to the trouble of making this super helpful video! You rock!
You’re still saving lives 3 years in the future, thank you sir, my husband was at it raging for hours!😂😂
Bless you thank you so much. We were struggling with our drawer for an hour until i checked for a solution on youtube and found your video!
You were the one that explained that I can put down the lock tab to extract or insert the slide. I searched in many videos and you were the ones. Thanks so much! I was afraid because that tab has like a security pinch, so I thought it was not possible to move.
I wish I had just searched this on TH-cam before I tried to be a desk surgeon. 😂 oh well, your help is so appreciated!!!! Drawer is working like new
Thank you for this video I just assembled a new computer desk for nearly 2hrs and dropped the drawer as I was feeding it in and this happened. Now it’s an easy fix!
I cannot thank you enough, a very expensive mirrored dresser was about to go to waste... MILLION THANKS 🙂🙂
Was very helpful draw was not fixed for weeks your video helped me to fix in 2 min
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I knew there had to be a way, but I would have never figured it out on my own.
Thank you for this video, I fixed the drawer that was broken for 3 years and now I feel powerful
Thank U so much mate. I was trying to force it back in and obviously it didn't work!!found your video and took me 2min to fix. 🙏🏻👍👌
Cleam and simple instructions to fix this. I am messing around for an hour to before watching this video.
Thank you. I don't get stumped that easily but couldn't figure out how to get those ball bearings back in. Going from the backside was the key.
I decided to look on TH-cam for a fix, after I tore the plastic slider that has the bearings on it while attempting to put it back in 😂 Thank you, I'll remember it for the future
This is exactly what we needed and had trouble finding advice on. Thanks so much!!
Same here, thanks.
Very simple , we just fixed our kitchen cabinet using this, thanks a ton Adam
Life saver dude. Thanks so much for taking the time to shoot & upload this!!! Thanks so much
you literally saved me! I was putting my standing desk together and accidentally took the slider apart incorrectly. I thought it was all over and I was going to have to wait for a replacement piece, but then I found you! thank you sm 🫶🏾
Superb Demonstration....Just delivered what i needed...Hats off!!!
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed. You saved me so much time and frustration

Thank you so much for posting this! You saved me so much time, frustration and money!
Thankyou so much I was wrapping my head to get it back together
You are a legend 💯💯💯
Exactly what I was looking for & worked perfectly! Thanks
Thanks for the video. I figured I needed to bend the tab to slide the plastic slider and bearings in, pushing them down marked the rails -- so obviously not how it was put together originally. In my case, I needed to place the plastic slider and bearings on the inside of the outer bracket in order to push the inner bracket through since the bearings would fall off of the plastic sliders if placed on the outside. The holes on the slider were too big to hold the bearings in place.
Nice work explaining and showing! Much appreciated!😊
Thanks a whole bunch, you saved me about two hours of frustration! Good job on the video!
Thank you thank you thank you. I was in tears until I watched your video!!!
This is amazing! Took me quite a while to find this video, but it was EXACTLY the right way to get it fixed. THANK YOU!!!!! :)

Adam thank you so much! I’m a handy guy but those rollers had me messed up. Was thinking I needed some channel-locks to start bending some of rail back and forth. Thank you!

This was really helpful even though my sliders were a very different style. Conceptually confirmed what I thought and gave me the confidence to make a fix on my kitchen trash can drawer. Just to get a second opinion I was reading through a Reddit thread, and it coincidentally had a link to this video 🙂 Thanks!
What a great video, a true life saver. Seriously thanks for the help.

Good info, my issue was the silver bit in this video popped out so had to figure out to get that back in while managing to keep all the loose ball bearings in place but this is still good to know if I ever run into this issue.
After attempting to put this back together for an hour and can safely say this video was helpful 🤣

Omfg ! I didn’t even know what the roller pieces were and tried to just re enter it ! Haven’t finished watching but thanks for even making me realize !
thank you so much! I just fixed my drawer!!!
Brilliant!! Thank you for sharing!
Appreciate this, I was stuck mine was a little cheaper apparently and I had to individually insert each ball bearing into that I didn't have a track that connected to it but I was still able to kind of follow the instructions. Which let me resolve my issue thanks so much
Huge help, thank you!
Thank goodness for this video! I not only have these (ball bearing) drawer slides on my kitchen drawers, they are also in my tool box chest drawers. Struggled to fix my tool box drawers last year. Nearly went into panic mode, but figured it out a year ago. My kitchen drawer glide just fell apart, and completely forgot how it all worked. Thank YOU !
Thanks for the tips in your video. I found it very helpful👍
