Can the LR32 drill for draw slides where the first draw slide is not at 16/32mm?

I've been lurking around the FOG for 5 years, but this is my first question...so thanks in advance for any assistance/suggestions.

I'm planning to build a whole new set of workshop storage

1. Workbench with 3x MFT3 panels as the top, with under bench sysport style storage
2. Several tall cabinets, 2400 high, bottom 1000 will be draws/sysport as needed. The top section above 1000 with have height adjustable shelves...maybe with doors.

In both the draw runners are to be drilled every 32 to allow different draws/systainers to be installed as required.

I'm comfortable about drilling the adjustable shelving holes and the door hinge hardware holes, my problem relates to the draw slides.

I'm also comfortable about drilling using different set backs from the front edge for the draw runners.

The problem is I cant find information on how to set the first row of holes to be at any distance other then 16 or 32mm from the bottom edge of the panel. The cabinet will be constructed using 16mm material, so a 32mm first hole from the bottom edge will end up 16mm above the inside of the bottom of the cabinet...which wont be enough for the draw slides...and attaching the draw slide to the second set of holes at 32mm will be a waste of space!

Thanks
 
If you look at the layout for the new SYS-AZ you will see an 8mm space from the top of your 1000 fixed shelve to the first 32mm hole.

I just made 6 boxes in ready for this system when available here in NA.

You can always temporarily attach a spacer to your panel to adjust the starting distance.
