Name: Peter Davio City: Hope Mills State: NC County: Cumberland Join Date: Dec 2005 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.92 over 180 days | for frameless cabinetry? also should be 'low profile' as I have about 1/2 inch to work in...
currently using 3/4 extension slides that will not make the customer happy  on one of the drawers, and full extension 100# side mount slides on two others, which don't quite work as planned!
Have searched the usual providers - CSH, Rockler, and I think we looked at WC, too

This might fit the 1/2" clearance requirement http://www.cabinetmart.com/23-xxxx.html
Good luck, it's always best to have your hardware figured out before starting to build

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

Name: John City: Raleigh State: NC County: Wake Join Date: Sep 2005 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 4.28 over 180 days | I've used the accuride full extension under-mount slides (a fairly new model) available at Woodcraft Raleigh. They are rated at 100 lbs. I found they worked with 1/8" less side clearance than 1" required by standard side-mounts.
They do mount to the cabinet sides, but the runner/rail is completely hidden beneath the drawer. You would need to drill a small (1/4") hole in the back of the drawer in the lower corner for mounting. They use a quick release clip under the front of the drawer to enable easy drawer removal. They run in the mid-$30 - depending on length needed.
Customer was very pleased because they have a very smooth action and when drawer is about 2" from closed, they pull the drawer in the rest of the way.
