Robin dresser drawer

How do I unlock the Robin dresser drawers so that they can be fully removed?

I have looked for the plastic locking screws, but can't see anything inside the drawer that is adjustable.

Re: Robin dresser drawer

Hi Aberdonian and welcome!

I have a Robin dresser, and to remove the drawer you simply pull the drawer out fully, tilt the front up and pull it out the rest of the way. There's no locking screw that I know of.

Re: Robin dresser drawer

Just tried that suggestion, but it doesn't fly for me. The drawers only open about two-thirds to three-quarters of the way to begin with. There's definitely something in there blocking them from being fully opened or removed.

If anyone knows what the deal is...

Re: Robin dresser drawer

I don't know what to tell you then....there's nothing in the construction of the dresser or drawers that should cause it to get stuck. When you pull the drawer out to as far as you can, then tilt it up towards you as far as you can and continue to pull, you should feel it glide over the roller for the drawer. Then you can lower it to horizontal and pull it out completely. The drawers go back in exactly the same way but reversed: line up the glides, tilt up, push in a bit to go over the roller, then straighten out and push all the way in.

If this doesn't work, it's possible you've got something that is in another drawer or under the dresser that's getting stuck, but it isn't the construction of the drawer that is preventing it from opening.
