Drawer Closure Mechanisms

Two self closing freezer drawer cam and lever
mechanisms automatically pull the drawer shut
when it's within 1 inch of the closed position. The
closure mechanisms are located on the lower corner
areas of the drawer and cabinet.
Each closure mechanism consists of a lever, spring,
and cam. The lever is attached with a spring to a
hook in the base channel. The cam is mounted to
the bottom of the drawer with two T-20 Torx screws.
The lever interacts with the cam to complete the
closing of the drawer.
A pair of pliers can be used to remove the spring
from the hook. The spring and lever can then be
pulled out through the hole in the base channel.
