HF 13 drawer TB - Drawers keep opening
- Thread starter yositoco
- Start date
I remember reading somewhere in here a post on how to modify the drawers do that they didnt open by themselves.
I've been searching for a while and can't seem to find the post.
Has anybody else had/fixed this issue?

Haven't seen the thread but gravity always works.
Put ~1/8" spacers between casters and the box on the drawer side and the drawers will be sloped back and want to stay closed.
That's how you'd keep the drawers of an old Snap-on box closed back in the day...before the "Lock and Roll" revolution that is.

I think the mod was actually the opposite of that. The drawers naturally have a pretty tight capture right when they close. This causes a good amount of push or pull to open or close them. The mod was to make them open easier.
