Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
On TANDEM Edge BLUMOTION installs, the locking device position controls where soft-close engages, so set it squarely and at the correct height per Blum's template before tightening. Order left and right hands for each drawer as needed and label bins by hand to avoid mix-ups in the shop. If you are not using BLUMOTION runners, this part is not required.
Confirm the device is fully screwed down and aligned; a loose actuator can prevent proper soft-close engagement and allow the drawer to slam.
Pick up the Blum TANDEM standard locking device in left or right hand for reliable BLUMOTION soft-close engagement.
