What a front locking device does

Part BT51.1901.20L is the Blum clip that fastens the drawer box to Blum Tandem 563 and 569 runners at the front. It seats in the pre bored holes in the front corner of the box, hooks the runner, and carries the front adjusters, so it is the part you touch when a front sits low or leans. It is 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 BT51.1901.20L is for Blum Tandem 563 and 569 runners. It adjusts height and side to side adjustment. Tilt correction is not part of part BT51.1901.20L.

When to use this one

Where part BT51.1901.20L earns its place: vertical mounting on 5/8 inch or thicker sub fronts, which reduces sub front splitting. The vertical version screws into the sub front from below rather than through the face, which suits thicker sub fronts and reduces splitting.

Installing and adjusting it

Press part BT51.1901.20L 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 BT51.1901.20L, 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 BT51.1901.20L presses straight in.

Pair it with a notched box

We drill every notched box to take part T51.1901.20L 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 T51.1901.20L.
