Abstract: A pull-out safeguard for a drawer cabinet, having a multiplicity of elements (20) which are arranged essentially in a row and can be displaced, a guide means (40) for guiding the elements (20), adjusting elements (50) which are connected to the drawers (12) to be secured, for adjusting the vertical position of the elements (20), and a restricting means (26) for restricting the displaceability of the elements (20). The adjusting elements (50) interact with the drawers (12) to be secured in such a manner that at the beginning of a pull-out movement of one of the drawers (12) to be secured, they move one of the elements (20) and all of the other elements (20) which are situated in one of the directions of the row, but, after a certain pull-out position of the pulled-out drawer (12), are moved back into their starting position by the gravitational force and/or the spring force of a spring element and/or a different driver driving back the elements (20).
