Materials and Tools for Fixing Dresser Drawer Tracks

Steps for Fixing Dresser Drawer Tracks

1Empty out the drawers. Remove the drawer that is sticking. This is required so that you can work on the drawer tracks underneath or on the side of the drawer, depending on where they are.

2Check to see if there are any loose or missing screws. Adjust or tighten any loose screws. This may fix the dresser tracks right away. However, if you need new screws, remove the old ones.

3Take the old screws with you to the hardware store so you can purchase replacement screws that will fit. Put your tracks aside

4While at the hardware store, purchase a dresser drawer track guide.

5Remove any old nails or staples that may be in the way. Put the tracks back into place and realign. Reattach the track to the drawer by using screws and staples.

6Attach the drawer track guide to the back of the drawer. This will make it easier for the drawer to glide down the dresser drawer tracks and will also help to keep the tracks aligned.

Fixing dresser drawer tracks are simple. Now you are prepared to fix all the drawers in your home.
