Remove the old drawer slides from your cabinet. If necessary, use a screwdriver to remove any screws that are holding the old slides in place. 2\. Measure the width of the opening in your cabinet where the new drawer slides will be installed. Choose Accuride drawer slides that are the same width or slightly wider than the opening. 3\. Position the new drawer slides inside the cabinet opening, making sure that they are level and centered. If necessary, use a drill to create pilot holes for the installation screws. 4\. Use screws to secure the new drawer slides in place. Make sure that the screws are tightened securely so that the drawer slides will not become loose over time. 5\. Test the operation of the new drawer slides by opening and closing the drawer several times. If everything is working properly, you're all done!
