How do I remove the drawer front from a MAXIMERA drawer?

There is an access panel on either side of the drawer you can use to unlock the drawer frame from the drawer front. The detailed steps to build and remove a drawer front can be found in your MAXIMERA assembly document.

Removing your MAXIMERA drawer front

If you have lost your assembly document, you can look it up at any time on the MAXIMERA product page under Product Details > Assembly and Documents.

Removing it from the cabinet

If it is installed in the METOD cabinet, you will need to remove it first.
  1. Pull the drawer all the way out.
  2. Tilt the front upwards (lift the front up).
  3. Remove the drawer the rest of the way.
  4. Place the drawer on a flat surface.

removing the support rails (for Medium and High MAXIMERA drawers ONLY)

If your drawer is a medium or high drawer, it will have additional support rails for mounting accessories. You must remove these first
  1. Using a flat head screwdriver, push on the clip located on the rear of the drawer. Repeat on both sides.
  2. Lift them out and leave them unclipped.
  3. If you are replacing your drawer front with a new one, remove these rails from the front.
  4. Proceed to removing the front.

Removing the Front

  1. Remove the plastic covers located on the outside of the left and right side panels. There is one plastic cover on each side panel.
  2. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, turn the large screw in the middle anticlockwise (away from the drawer front). Repeat on both sides.
  3. The drawer front has been released from the frame. Remove the drawer front.

Re-installing your MAXIMERA drawer front

We recommend you follow the instructions in the assembly document. However, you can also:
  1. Re-insert the front panel.
  2. Push firmly until you hear a click.
  3. If your drawer is a medium or high drawer, re-install the additional support rails you removed earlier.
