I want to add a sliding drawer, or two, to a pantry. Depth from inside of back panel to inside of front 3/4 inch trim is 22 13/16. Will ordering a drawer box 22 inches deep with a 22 inch glide work? What type of notching is needed? Does this mount to the front trim and back of the pantry?

BEST ANSWER: So, the slide is for mounting to the bottom of a cabinet or top of a shelf using a wood drawer box.
The question also raises the question of attachment to the front and back.
So, this slide wouldn’t be appropriate, especially for multiple drawers unless you have multiple shelves you want to add to.
All that said, 22” drawer depths would be fine as “Interior Rollouts” will usually have a scoop that will “make” the front instead of adding an additional front.
If you have a face frame, you would just need to add rear mount brackets for rear attachment and then attach to the front edge as mentioned…maybe just set back a little bit to be sure there is no interference with the door when closed.
