Camper mod needing 2m drawer slides

[AB]

Haven't measured exactly yet just toying with the idea as you do on a Saturday night ;

I have a modified Windsor pop top that is a few inches higher then standard, etc.

I'm wanting to run slide out kitchen drawers on both the rear (underneath seating inside) and the front.

I'll need roughly a 2m ball bearing slider though, has anyone done this or know of where to get them?

Quality is the key here as they will get dust and I'm concerned of the lengthy runner getting jammed. Or do people run boxed timber with silicone tape etc for those lengths?

2 metres !!!
Is that 1 metre closed, 2 metres extended
or
2 metres closed 4 metres extended

Be aware that the weight rating on slides isn't full weight at full extension

Here is a link to the slides I used on my Camper (1500mm x 225 Kg)

Could always make your own runners.

Get some box section ally of whatever tickles your fancy and some skateboard bearings.

Attach the bearing either the draw or surround and the box section to the other. Mount the bearings so that they are too and bottom of the box section and alternate where the bearing on the top and bottom are, eg not all in line but a zig zag.

I hope that makes sense. Rum is making words hard.

I was thinking this, but the braw back of this setup is you can get 100% travel. So say the kitchen is full width, 10% of it will be under the camper still so the runners can safely counter lever I'm bearings.

The slides are a 3 stage, so safely go over the 100% with plenty of overlap in the slides for strength..

I might be able to still get these Andy which look the same as on ET's link: http://uesint.com/shop/steel-drawer-slides/

PM me if you want me 2 get you a price

[the evil twin]

Yeah, probably same and price looks like similar quality if they are different manuf anyway.

Don't fall for the trap of getting two lockables, 99% of applications you only use one or none.
If both slides lock it means if you have something in your hand you want to remove/put in the draw you have to put it down to open or close the draw.
You would be suprised how quickly that becomes a PIA
