What a front locking device does

A front locking device is the small clip that presses into the front bottom corner of an undermount drawer box and grabs the runner. Without it the drawer just sits on the runners; with it the drawer locks down and the adjusters set the front, and that is exactly the job part BT51.1801L does. This Blum device is for Blum Tandem 563 and 569 runners, sold as the left hand device, sold each; a drawer takes one of these and one right hand device.

What it fits

Match the device to the runner stamp, not just the brand: part BT51.1801L is for Blum Tandem 563 and 569 runners. It adjusts height adjustment only, no side adjustment. Tilt correction is not part of part BT51.1801L.

When to use this one

Where part BT51.1801L earns its place: the basic no adjustment device, and the one that fits drawers too narrow for the T51.1901. It works in face frame and frameless cabinets alike, because the cabinet side of the job is handled by the runner and its rear bracket, not the clip.

Installing and adjusting it

Press part BT51.1801L into its pre bored holes before the box goes on the runners, not after; it clicks into place and then the box lowers onto the runner hooks and the extended device locks down. How to install undermount drawer slides covers that sequence for part BT51.1801L, and How to adjust undermount soft close drawer slides covers the height, side to side adjusters once the drawer is hanging. The pre bore itself is part of our free notch and drill prep, so part BT51.1801L presses straight in.

Pair it with a notched box

We drill every notched box to take part T51.1801L whether or not we are the ones pressing it on. Order No Clips on the custom drawer box configurator and fit it yourself, which takes seconds once the box is on the bench. Built in USA, Baltic Birch or Hard Maple (Select Grade), for part T51.1801L.
