    I don't have drawers in my Bailey but from other vans i have seen there is a hiddent catch to stop them falling right out during travel. Sometines this is just a lip at the back of the drawer that needs to be lifted over a sill, others have a clip on the side like a child-safe cupboard catch.

    The runners on the drawers in my Coachman have a small Philips head screw that needs removing ...... just suggesting as I've never had a Bailey either smile

    Pull the drawer out, then feel underneath (at each side) near the front and in line with the runners , you should find a small flat spot, press these (there should be a slight click) and then lift the entire drawer upwards and outwards. This works on our S6 2007 champagne

    Many thanks for your replies, problem now resolved.laughing

    Will now be able to help others, this does seem to be a problem with this type of runner.

    Thanks to all.

    Are they still called drawers? It's a very old fashioned word.
