How to Fix Sticky Wooden Drawers - Lubricate Runners

Cheap and easy fix for wood drawers that are sticky or hard to open and close. Lubricate the wood runners and drawers with wax. No sanding required. Works great for old wooded kitchen cabinets and drawers and antique wood dresser drawers. This is how I fixed my drawers.

Great old tip. A lot of people forget to do this. Thanks for sharing.

Solid tip. Using old, ugly candles you forgot and packed into the attic over the summer is handy too (personal experience!)

[@Woodified]

Ugly or pretty it all works the same. Thanks for watching

[@DanMasucci]

Excellent! We have old cabinets and drawers that we just painted and have been searching for something like this. Have since learned that car wax works great, too.

[@Woodified]

Hey Dan great tip on the car wax.

[@amigochan]

Thank you. This is what I am looking for. Now I may use candles to wax these drawers. My Aunty should open them easier in the future.

[@Woodified]

Glad to help make your Aunty's life a little easier.

Did you get the mark off your table?

Great advice, thanks for sharing!

[@Woodified]

Glad it was helpful!

Wouldnt a multi purpose grease have the same affect?

[@Woodified]

Wax is a good non-toxic fix. Grease would most likely work to.

[@socal1561]

bar of soap also works

[@Woodified]
