Matt Calnen

Hello all, I normally by my cabinetry hardware from Richelieu.Blum slides have been back ordered for over a month. Anyone know of another company with similar pricing where I can get them? I live in Northern Michigan. Thanks

That's the way it's been lately. I've been ordering slides just because. So when I need them I have them in stock. I've been waiting on some 18" Tandems for about the same time. I get them through Atlantic Plywood and when I ordered the 18"ers they had 2600 slides coming in, I was about 5200 in line.

The 15" came in like normal though.

Richelieu also stocks Salice Futura under mount. Soft close or push open. ANSI grade 1, lifetime warranty. Extremely smooth operation. Six way adjustable front clips. Competitive pricing. You will be pleased.

Dennis, Are these available in the same 15", 18", 21" lengths? 5/8" drawer material thickness? Boring location the same? I clicked on your link to run them down and there are enough options when you aren't familar with the product to make it hard to understand if you are getting a like product. What's the products name and number on the equivelent of a BLUM Tandem with BLUMOTION? Thank you sir

Hey FM,

Sorry for not replying until now but I was traveling all weekend.

Here is information that should answer your questions:

1. Futura slides are available in 9", 12" 15" 18" and 21".

2. We have 2 versions. One is for 1/2" or 5/8" drawer material and the second is for 3/4" drawer material

A7555 - For 1/2" or 5/8"
A7955 - For 3/4" drawers

The drawer width calculation is the same as the Tandem however please note that the Futura slide rides 4mm (3/16"). For the most part, this only affects the placement of the drawer front. (It will drop down 4mm).

For the product number here are the codes. Name: "Futura"

A7555/381 -15"
A7555/457 - 18"
A7555/533 - 21"

Let me comment on this slide shortage. This has been caused indirectly by COVID. As a result, steel is in short supply for everyone. Salice, like Blum finds this challenging. In addition to steel, transportation is another contributing factor. Due to COVID restrictions in Europe, container boats are locked down in many ports. Here in the states, containers are stuck in port and can not be un loaded to to labor shortage. Finally, trucking companies are also hurt by the labor shortage and other restrictions preventing movement from state to state. As you can see the entire supply chain has been paralyzed. Salice has faired better than most in that many sea ports throughout the country where Germany and Austria are land locked.

In spite of our flexibility, our inventories may not be sufficient to accept orders far above our normal inventory levels. We will do our best.

All I can say is to contact your Salice distributor ( Richelieu and many more) to check their inventory status.

Here is a schematic for the installation and the link to our web site for full details.

Best of luck, we are all in the same boat rowing upstream.

Regards,

Dennis

I'll remember this mess the rest of my life and I most likely will never purchase anything with the name blum on it. This might not all be their fault but I feel they are to blame for a fair share of it. You can't tell me a company of that size can just all of a sudden lay an egg in production like this. I only bought 10-20K worth of blum per year before covid so it won't really matter to them...but I'll feel better knowing they don't get my money. Screw Blum

FORUM GUIDELINES: Please review the guidelines below before posting at WOODWEB's Interactive Message Boards (return to top)

  • WOODWEB is a professional industrial woodworking site. Hobbyist and homeowner woodworking questions are inappropriate.
  • Messages should be kept reasonably short and on topic, relating to the focus of the forum. Responses should relate to the original question.
  • A valid email return address must be included with each message.
  • Advertising is inappropriate. The only exceptions are the Classified Ads Exchange, Machinery Exchange, Lumber Exchange, and Job Opportunities and Services Exchange. When posting listings in these areas, review the posting instructions carefully.
  • Subject lines may be edited for length and clarity.
  • "Cross posting" is not permitted. Choose the best forum for your question, and post your question at one forum only.
  • Messages requesting private responses will be removed - Forums are designed to provide information and assistance for all of our visitors. Private response requests are appropriate at WOODWEB's Exchanges and Job Opportunities and Services.
  • Messages that accuse businesses or individuals of alleged negative actions or behavior are inappropriate since WOODWEB is unable to verify or substantiate the claims.
  • Posts with the intent of soliciting answers to surveys are not appropriate. Contact WOODWEB for more information on initiating a survey.
  • Excessive forum participation by an individual upsets the balance of a healthy forum atmosphere. Individuals who excessively post responses containing marginal content will be considered repeat forum abusers.
  • Responses that initiate or support inappropriate and off-topic discussion of general politics detract from the professional woodworking focus of WOODWEB, and will be removed.
  • Participants are encouraged to use their real name when posting. Intentionally using another persons name is prohibited, and posts of this nature will be removed at WOODWEB's discretion.
  • Comments, questions, or criticisms regarding Forum policies should be directed to WOODWEB's Systems Administrator
    (return to top).

    Carefully review your message before clicking on the "Send Message" button - you will not be able to revise the message once it has been sent.

    You will be notified of responses to the message(s) you posted via email. Be sure to enter your email address correctly.

    WOODWEB's forums are a highly regarded resource for professional woodworkers. Messages and responses that are crafted in a professional and civil manner strengthen this resource. Messages that do not reflect a professional tone reduce the value of our forums.

    Messages are inappropriate when their content: is deemed libelous in nature or is based on rumor, fails to meet basic standards of decorum, contains blatant advertising or inappropriate emphasis on self promotion (return to top).

    Libel:   Posts which defame an individual or organization, or employ a tone which can be viewed as malicious in nature. Words, pictures, or cartoons which expose a person or organization to public hatred, shame, disgrace, or ridicule, or induce an ill opinion of a person or organization, are libelous.

    Improper Decorum:   Posts which are profane, inciting, disrespectful or uncivil in tone, or maliciously worded. This also includes the venting of unsubstantiated opinions. Such messages do little to illuminate a given topic, and often have the opposite effect. Constructive criticism is acceptable (return to top).

    Advertising:   The purpose of WOODWEB Forums is to provide answers, not an advertising venue. Companies participating in a Forum discussion should provide specific answers to posted questions. WOODWEB suggests that businesses include an appropriately crafted signature in order to identify their company. A well meaning post that seems to be on-topic but contains a product reference may do your business more harm than good in the Forum environment. Forum users may perceive your references to specific products as unsolicited advertising (spam) and consciously avoid your web site or services. A well-crafted signature is an appropriate way to advertise your services that will not offend potential customers. Signatures should be limited to 4-6 lines, and may contain information that identifies the type of business you're in, your URL and email address (return to top).

    Repeated Forum Abuse: Forum participants who repeatedly fail to follow WOODWEB's Forum Guidelines may encounter difficulty when attempting to post messages.

    There are often situations when the original message asks for opinions: "What is the best widget for my type of shop?". To a certain extent, the person posting the message is responsible for including specific questions within the message. An open ended question (like the one above) invites responses that may read as sales pitches. WOODWEB suggests that companies responding to such a question provide detailed and substantive replies rather than responses that read as a one-sided product promotion. It has been WOODWEB's experience that substantive responses are held in higher regard by our readers (return to top).
