Sliding Trays In Bays

[Don Bradner]

I installed a pair of Kwikee Super Slides a couple of weeks ago. Bought them
from http://www.tweetys.com, which had the best price I could find.

Super Slides are the rails only, with you supplying the platform (3/4-inch
plywood). You have to cut the steel front and back pieces to fit the width.

I chose to use 2 48-inch rail sets. That turned out to be longer than could be
fitted in the space, even though measurements said it would work. The problem is
that there is a latch on the right rail of each that extends another inch or so,
and that latch turns out to be right where the right-hand strut on mine (non-gas
side) comes down, forcing the rail to be set back in a couple of inches.

My "solution" was to inset one tray on the other. The narrow one is full depth,
and the wide one is full width but a couple of inches shorter, front to back.

I had been planning to put up a pictorial, and your question got me to complete
it, here:
