ABSTRACT:
An adapter rail is provided for an injection molded plastic drawer to compensate for the draft angle of the sidewalls of the plastic drawer and to dispose a runner attached to the adapter rail aligned with and substantially parallel to a track mounted in an opening into which the drawer is inserted. In use, an adapter rail is attached to each of a pair of opposed sidewalls of a plastic drawer and a runner is attached to each adapter rail. Each adapter rail has a first side which is inclined at a complementary angle to the sidewall of the drawer to which it is attached to dispose a second side of the adapter rail generally parallel to the track. The adapter rail also spaces the runner from the sidewall of the drawer so that the runner is aligned with and can be mated with the track. Thus, a plastic drawer with the adapter rail and attached runner may be used with conventional track and within an opening of a cabinet having generally straight sides and being defined by right angles.
