Patent ID: 8844110

Claim:
A method of opening a refrigerator drawer comprising: removably attaching a slide assembly that is operable between expanded and non-expanded positions to an interior wall of a refrigerator; connecting a drawer operable between open and closed positions to the slide assembly; removably attaching a modular self-closing mechanism to the interior wall of the refrigerator separate from the slide assembly, the self-closing mechanism having a spring-biased slider positionable between a retracted position and an extended position; removably attaching an actuator on the slide assembly in sliding alignment with the spring-biased slider, wherein the actuator abuts and pulls the slider along a linear path between a fully expanded position and a fully retracted position; pulling the drawer to the open position, thereby causing the actuator to engage the spring biased slider and place the spring-biased slider in the extended position; and forming at least one latch spring on the self-closing mechanism that abuts the slider to temporarily retain the slider in the extended position.
