Drawer catches in kitchen
We have a 2017 2800bh and I have found the drawers slide open during travel. We have the design that has the individual drawers as opposed to the sliding drawers inside the cabinet door. I do not see or feel any catches for these and that seems odd to me. Does anyone else have the issue and how did you resolve?

Can you take a pic of the drawer track hardware and post? It would help to see what they used. Sometimes the roller on the drawer side goes over a hump to hold the drawer in place while in the closed position if that is the case you could take pliers and bend that to make it more pronounced. I would have to see what they used.

I will take a picture and investigate further this week when I get by the storage lot.

Don't see any kind of catch on slides or inside cabinet. Looking at some magnet catches, just need to make sure they will fit.

Those look similar to what we have in the 2150RB. I don't think they have a hold close built in but I will look at them tomorrow.

Obhawk - I think you might be missing some drawer latches. We have the same drawer slides but have a a friction catch at the top centre of each drawer. See picture.

This is an old thread, but we’re new here and learning every day. Thank you Rob, for the valuable experiences you share. Our trip home with the new trailer (Sept. 2, 2017), left her looking like the scene from the movie “The Long, Long Trailer”!
None of our drawers have latches of any kind. Some of our cupboard latches aren’t tight enough to hold, so part of our prep for the last year is to apply bungee cords on all vulnerable cupboard/drawer handles. Heck with that, I bought 6 latches at Lowe’s and installed 3/6 yesterday (I have better uses for those darn bungees). However, even though I was told by the dealer that the drawers have no adjustment on the glides, one of our drawers has a definitive “drop and catch” felt at the end of its close. That drawer takes a full body pull to get it started, then glides easily the rest of the way. Hope to be done today. Too hot to continue yesterday.
