Side clearance determines the space needed between the drawer and the cabinet for proper slide installation and smooth operation. Variance in side clearance allows you to choose a slide that fits your specific installation requirements. For example, slides like the KV 8250P 22 offer 1-5/8" outboard and 17/32" inboard clearance, accommodating different mounting scenarios. Having a range of side clearance options ensures you can select a slide that fits seamlessly into your existing furniture or cabinetry.
