Abstract: A pull-out guide for drawers consists of two 2 frame sides, U-shaped guide rails and Z-shaped pull-out rails movable therein, both the guide and pull-out rails being provided with a roller each, and the lower guide legs of the U-shaped guide rails having in their end areas run-in slopes adjoined by run-in stops each, and the front end areas of the upper pull-out rail legs, serving as rolling surfaces for the rollers, having a run-in slope each oriented in the same direction and preferably parallel to the run-in slope in the end area of the guide rail on the frame side. This improves the pull-in and staying closed behavior when drawers of little net weight and small load capacity are involved. Because the legs of both rail pairs of the pull-out guide run parallel, the front blind is approximately jointlessly flush with the frame.
