Has anyone tried this—can file cabinet tracks be added to a drawer, or does it not really work in practice?
Yes, file cabinet tracks can be added to a drawer.
In most cases, you can retrofit a drawer by installing metal drawer slides or file cabinet rails to improve smooth sliding and load capacity.
The key is accurate measurement of side clearance, choosing the correct length and weight rating, and ensuring both rails are perfectly aligned to avoid sticking or misalignment.
If you plan to store hanging files, you also need to make sure the cabinet has enough internal height and space for the hanging rail system.
