Another Drawer Option....Just installed

**ThorneGator** · 15th December 2013, 06:47 AM

I just wanted to show off my new drawer set and offer up another 'kit' option for all of us in Oz.
I ended up going overseas to the UK after seeing how much choice was there due to the UK Land Rover market, and how the price was due to the competition in that market.
I ended up with these (pics below), as I was looking for all metal construction, one-handed and flush mounted handles, modular design, flush load area surface.
The owner Will, was a great guy and very helpful, making sure I was satisfied, going the extra distance to make sure everything met my needs.
Curious for your thoughts......sorry for horizontal images, they were correctly positioned, but couldn't figure out how to adjust in here.

While a very neat job, I personally don't like the large single draw as I keep a fridge in the back and raised floor makes fridge access difficult. The draw runners look a little light.

It would be good if a section of floor could unbolt and lift out so a fridge could sit in the draw. A fridge cover with a frame could then bolt in its place.

The bolt in floor or fridge cover would need to be part of the floor's strength.

Wow, I reckon it looks awesome! Very neat. Do you have any photos from a more side-on profile showing the drawer runners in more detail?

Cheers

Colour me impressed!

I'd seen them during previous searches but didn't realise just how neat a product they were.

Thanks,

Yeah, it does change the dynamic for a fridge.... I guess that is the fun of it; always trying to figure out to create the 'perfect' setup.

I will take a pic of the side rails to show more, but they are ball-bearing and the fully-laden draw pulls out with three fingers on the handle. Feels about like pulling with around 6-7kgs of force.

The company is Sense of Adventure and to be honest, with the draw seperators and the rubber mat cover, and with shipping from UK, and then with Australia getting their GST back, I finished up around 1800; so now when I add it up, not great, but I guess not awful either.....It's never cheap is it?

But I have no buyers remorse, that is for sure!

That's basically the same price as a Black Widow install - which is what I have.

Based on the photos you've posted, I'd get your option.

Interested in what your setup weighs - the BW drawers are very heavy and, while sturdy, seem a little OTT.

Thanks,

I like the BW units as well. All up, the unit weighs around 25-30kgs....that is just using the two scales attached to my shoulders, so not too accurate, but will give an idea. The website might have more specific weights.
