Review Rockler’s Drawer Slide Jig – Worth It or Gimmick?

[Miller88]

Got this jig last week because I was sick of misaligned drawer slides. On first try — holy crap, why didn’t I buy this sooner.

Pros:

• Magnetic arms snap right to metal slides
• Keeps everything square in both planes
• Saves so much fiddling and cursing

Cons:

• A bit bulky in tight cabinets
• Plastic feels a little fragile for the price ($30+)

Still, even for a small shop, it’s a massive time-saver. Definitely recommend if you're installing more than 2 drawers a year.

Co-sign this. Especially for frameless cabinets, it's a lifesaver.
