    Apologies for the title but I can't describe it any other way.
    So I'm retrofitting a TV unit into a bathroom vanity. I've cut out the drawers to accommodate the plumbing but because of this the drawer come off the runner too a little bit too early.
    So I'm thinking of installing a runner on the bottom of the drawer.
    My question is will this work and has anyone done it before. If so any advice

    Pictures attached for clarity

    What you need are underside drawer runners, you may have to fit a different base to the drawers or reduce the height of the drawers for them to fit

    Thanks,
    Yeah the bottom of the drawer is only backing board but I do have a half inch gap to work with.
    Another thought I had was to install a small spring mounted caster.
