Most comprehensive video for Blum runners and Movento. Blum should hire you to make videos.

Super video. I've been looking at the Blum Momento instructions in total confusion. You showed me exactly what I needed to do. Time for me extremely well spent to watch the video. Thanks!

Clear and concise step-by-step explanation, with excellent video angles ranging from top down to zoomed in. I really appreciate the time and effort that went into repositioning your camera to give the best possible explanation. A true gem for anyone looking to do DIY in woodworking, and a passionate teacher!!

Thank you for this after 10s of thousands of dollars spent. Telling the contractor I need blum movento for tip on without hardware for our kitchen design. I end up getting Kratemade cabinets with 20" boxes rear mounted with tandem slides. Now we have a kitchen with no way to open our drawers. This video laid it all out for me and I fully understand how i got screwed in our kitchen. The contractor was just too stupid to understand what we wanted. We also got face framed cabinets when i said I wanted none. We also cant install push to open up the uppers because of the face frame without ugly blocking.

Excellent video. Much more informative than any I’ve seen so far. Thanks so much.

I agree, this is the best video on Movento installation. You are the first person I have run across to address the runner setback. Great Job!

Love the cat tax at 19:02! Great explanation of the tip-on, you did so much better than what Blum did. Edit: First time I watched this was about 1 in the morning and I thought "Good video, I like the cat." Second time I watched it (because I am planning out the BLum hardware), I thought "I just got a 600 level education on Blum Movento slides. Still like the cat."

I love this video. I lot of effort has gone into providing all you need to know about a range of Blum drawer runners. When I fist went to the Blum site I struggled with the marketing language and technical details the types of slide runners and the additional feature (options) Blum sale. This video makes all of this easy to understand. Thank you.

Thank you so much. Watching you explain the system that I’ve recently learned about reminds me so much of my father. Craftsmanship, intelligence, kindness, compassion and wisdom.

Top video. The effort you went to was superb. Nice touch with the opening underneath. You saved me! Thank you.

I’m so happy I came across your video! This will be my first attempt with the Movento system, and I was quite antsy about the whole process. That is until I saw your wonderful video. Very well done sir. Clear, precise and to the point with all the pop-ups👍👍

Good info and he's a clever man but why am I doing a Jimmy Stewart impression to myself while listening to him !

I have to install the Movento 760h, nominal length 550. I have made a mockup drawer to test the measurements using the information provided in this video, so the total length, from the front of the front piece to the back of the back piece exactly 550 millimetres. I’m using 15mm thick stock. I tried one slider on the drawer, and the “back lip”, the one that have to engage in the hole drilled in the back of the drawer engages maybe one millimetre in, with 8millimeters outside. So the drawer could have been at least 8mm longer.

This was a very well done and helpful video. I have 2 questions. First, I plan to use the bottom mount option "769R5330M" for a waste bin. Are the bottom mount style slides compatible with the standard movento tip on parts? Additionally, would you recommend going with the 44 to 88 lb tip on or the stronger 88 to155 lb tip on? I doubt the weight of the contents will ever exceed 88 lb but I wonder if the extra "gusto" will be better for waste bins. Thanks again!

Great video. Is this process the same for the Movento with integrated Tip On (so no soft-close)? Just ordered those and need to get the dimensios for the drawer I'll need to make.

Fantastic Video start to finish. By any chance did you make a base mount version? Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Great Video, thank you very much! If my drawer is 20 inches can I still use the 21 inch length slider ?

Useful video, thanks. We're finding that we have to push really quite hard to overcome the resistance of the Tipon units when closing the drawers. Is this normal? Is there any adjustment of this resistance?

If you are viewing in Canada the drawer box length would also be calculated differently. Its (nominal slide length) -10mm. This is the same in Europe as described by your previous commenter.

Amazing!

Great video. Very helpful. Do you have one on adjusting the movento slides?

Thank you so much for a very concise instruction! I'm in between two drawer runner lengths. The longer wont fit in my cabinet, and the smaller wont allow for a big enough drawer box. Would I be able to mount a block/spacer between the front of the drawer box and the front locking device and thus extend the drawer depth by the size of that spacer?

I'd think you could do that, but you'll have to remember to compensate/offset the cabinet rail placement by an equal amount. Only other concern is if the drawer is supporting heavy things, you're putting a lot of strain where the runner wasn't designed for it.

Well, finally Blum has made a drawer system (movento) so complicated and precise that it would confuse a rocket scientist. Good luck to all the cabinet makers out there in the real world attempting to bid a job that specifies this monster. No thanks!

At the end of the day, a drawer slide is a drawer slide. The way the market is right now, the drawer slide that you can actually get your hands on is the right drawer slide to use.

I finally got it. as per the instrucions if you are making the drawers in the way showed in this wideo, with the clip attache to the drawer and not to the front panel (the one where you attach the handles) the total lenght of the drawer should be Nominal_Lenght+Front-Piece-Thickness-10mm. (Or NL-10mm but measuring from the surface where the loching devices are attached to the back of the drawer) Also, I had to inset the slider 2mm+Front-Piece-Thickness to have the drawer 2-3 mm outside the carcass, space needed for the tip-on to function once you have the front panel attached to the drawer.. I don't understand why someone would take the time to make a video like this and the not giving the right informations.

Hi there this is the best vid. I have seen on these sliders. I have a question. I have the movento 650mm and want to add overlay drawer fronts. I have the sliders set 3mm back so how does the push mechanism work as there is no space to push. Or is it easier to make the draws inset?

CANADIANS your box length will not be the part number as mentioned in the video. Do not find this out the hard way. Canadian and European parts are different from the US parts for whatever frustrating reason. Use the number in the part number and subtract 10. Otherwise your drawer will stick out 10mm.

The problem I have is that when I try to close the drawer, I really have to slam it shut. If I do it gently the drawer will bounce back. There seems to be too much tension somewhere.

@@larrykoob507 thanks for your reply, but I’m trying to draft the cabinets in cad before building them (so I can get a parts list). It turns out, though, I just got the runners today. If you wanted to mount from the top set of holes on the cabinet rail, they are about 9mm (on center) above the top of the drawer rail. With my 32mm cabinet setup (which has the face top and bottom edges placed 1/2 way between system holes) , this meant that I needed to place the drawer bottom about 25mm from the bottom of the drawer face. Of course the movento slides do allow adjustment so you have a little play there. The specific measurement for drawers and faces will vary with how you have your system holes laid out and how much recess you’ve given the drawer bottom, but the important measurement is the 9mm from the mounting point to the drawer rail top. With that measurement you should be able to determine placement.

Good! I did misunderstand your question but it looks like you’ve got it figured out. I wouldn’t know anything about putting this information into CAD.

there is an apparent error in this video. when you are setting the depth with the jig be sure that the 5/8 notation on the jig is facing you so that you can read it when setting the depth if your drawer thickness is 5/8 and make sure the 1/2 setting is facing you if your drawer thickness is 1/2"

Hi, when discussing the box lenght you don't mention the thickness of the front piece. What's more confusing is that in the blum installation manual all the boxes have a notch also on the front and the front locking devices are shown attached to the front panel.

@s70cas7ic0

I tried using the movento tip-on slides. It says length is 22”/550mm. I built my drawer sides 22” long as per the slides. And went to install them and the sub-front is sticking way out the front of cabinet! Also my cabinet isn’t deep enough to just move the slides back! So I now have 3 box-joint drawers that are garbage. How can I prevent this in the future? Why does it say 22”/550mm when a 22” drawer is way too deep? For an overlay application by the way. I did the 3mm set back and adjusted the rollers and my drawer still sticks out the front of the carcass about an inch

The depth can be between 12 and 15mm. (I assume you mean from the bottom panel of the drawer to the bottom of the box frame).

And i don't know why these metal pins going into these two index holes are not even; on the left side it's just 4.5mm in width, on the right side 6mm for the recommended drill hole of that size. I suppose that the left hole should be drilled 4.5mm. Could you please explain? Cheers

Or, am I confused? I hope I'm not because I am about to go out to the workshop to cut the components of my boxes.
