<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Peasnquiet, post: 2406232, member: 14662&quot;]Found this trick to unlock roll top drawers: </p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;It&#039;s actually quite easier for 95% of rolltops ever made. The OP has been messaging offline... the fix remains the same.</p><p><br /></p><p>In short.. remove the center drawer. Grab two flathead screwdrivers or a couple of butter knifes. Lay down in the knee hole and look up. The locking, springloaded, retractable tabs will be right above you. Using the flatheads or butter knifes, compress the flanges back into the locking tab. LIFT (a third hand can be handy). Voila!</p><p><br /></p><p>Once the tambour is fully raised, the dowels will compress and the pedestal drawers will open. No &quot;picking&quot; required.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just an FYI.. the locking tab recess in the top of the desk is cut all the way through in order to prevent &quot;gunk&quot; build-up, which will, eventually, prevent the locking tab from fully seating and engaging. It also comes in quite handy for those that lock themselves out of their own desks. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
