KREGTool Company - Kreg KHI-SLIDE Installation Jig Drawer Slide Jig and Kreg KHC-PREMIUM Face Clamp (2 Pack)

Work great and very helpful when putting shelves in and rails. A must have of your by yourself

I ordered the soft close Lontan slides to replace our old rackety undermount kitchen drawer slides. The Kreg KHI jig made installation a breeze. No adjustment was necessary after placing the screws. Very simple to use and the cost of the jig is made up in savings of aggravation and frustration. Highly recommended.

These drawer jigs work great except for one exception…they don’t work on bottom drawers very well, especially when the cabinets are all ready installed and connected together. Other than that they are very accurate and easy to use. I had to install some of my kitchen cabinet drawers the old fashioned way.

used to line up drawer placement for wood working project

This jig, and clamps, would have done a good job in helping to install new drawer slides. However, the cabinet face construction prevented using this jig as designed.I ran into a problem made by how the face frames were constructed. A small block of wood was used to help stiffen the joint between the rail and stiles of the face frame. Because of that small block of wood, the clamps would not clamp against the inside of the stile.As long as the inside of the stile is completely flat, and the instructions that come with this jig are followed, this jig would make installing drawer slides easier.

Would have worked great on most cabinets, but our home has custom cabinets, and I found there's no way to clamp the jig to our cabs... But on NORMAL cabinets, it would have been a *snap* to use, and I appreciate that.

Made quick work of installing drawer slides.

These work okay, but there are some issues to be aware of. The most obvious is they are useless on bottom drawers since there is no room for either inside or outside the cabinet box. Second, if you have older face frame cabinets, make sure face boards you clamp these on are perfectly square or the slide will not be level when installed in your cabinet. Third, if you have large double size heavy drawers, the jigs will not support their weight and will sag causing the rails that you attach to the drawer will nit be aligned. Drawer will stick and/or not close properly or rub the frame on the bottom.
