Plastic Drawers Slides

These are just perfect for me for moving slides from trays to a much more compact yet searchable storage that can go in either file drawers or binders.

The Middle Atlantic rack drawers cost more but are well worth it. Easy-action drawer slides and durable construction with a good finish. Don't scrimp on this stuff if you want it to last.

I have 4 of these. They took the place of random storage in plastic bags and the bottom of drawers. I like them because they are waterproof and secure, yet easy to open without breaking a fingernail, unlike some other competitors. Not expensive and highly recommended.

I am placing all my master images in this kind of binder. My slides and negatives were already in plastic pages, but I was late to decide for this kind of binder. What I can say is: you must have it. No other box can match it for keeping PrintFile or similar pages. Very well made, perfect size.

I have many hundreds of slides taken in the 70' and 80's they had been in the slide boxes from the developers. Some were plastic and some were cardboard. Now there is a simple home for them in one box that is organized. Very useful.

After keeping my slides in the little cardboard or plastic boxes I got them back in originally I needed a way to store them more permanently. Most of my slides are more than 50 years old and the original containers are crumpled and warped. I've digitized them all and now need a more permanent home for them. I have about 400 slices so I bought two of these. I managed to get 20-23 slides per small separator box so I still have room for the other slides I still need to digitize.

This box/binder works really well for storing slides and negatives. I use plastic sleeves with contact sheets for the negs. The boxes close tightly and are stackable. For me, they're the ideal solution for storage and protection.

Most of my slides are in plastic frames and easily slide into pockets. Pockets are strong enough so I do not see problem with plastic frames unless they are too thick. I had a few slides with 3mm thick plastic frames that took too much effort to push into pockets so I replaced them with thinner frames. I would say that if frame thickness around 2.5mm or less - it will easily slide into pocket. But it they are 3mm or more there will be problem. So before you make order make sure that your slide frames are not too thick. I also recommend Besfile Archival Box Binder B&H# BEBAR - pages fit perfectly there.

A simple, well-made Shoe Bracket. Metal and not plastic. Smooth edges, slides on easily. Old-school quality in the best sense. Very happy I bought it. Well balanced.

First it seems to be all-metal, but soon you'd realise that the part where filter slides is high quality plastic. But it's very good plastic...
