looking for replacement pantry slide
My son used our 2011 Solera and on their trip the upper slide for the pantry came apart. I'm not sure why but it doesn't appear to be repairable.
The only marking I could find on it was "BRDSUPPLY.COM". It appears BRD supply is no longer in business so have no clue where to get a replacement. I've seen a similar pantry made by Knape and Vogt but from the pictures, it doesn't look like the slides are attached the same way. Hoping I don't have to replace the whole pantry.
What I have looks like a standard bearing slide with some flat mounting brackets welded on one side and U-brackets with slotted holes on the sides (for attaching to the pantry frame) welded on the other.
Appreciate any ideas you have.

Are you talking about the slide out mechanism - the slide motors on each side of the slideout?
I'm not sure about your specific year, but many Solera's used Lippert Schwintek mechanisms. These have slotted tracks which are engaged by the slide out motors. These are widely used and available from a number of aftermarket suppliers. Here's a link to the Lippert page about their slideout systems: https://www.lci1.com/slide-outs

Sorry. I'm referring to the slide out pantry with baskets for storing stuff. Similar to this.

I had the same thing happen on my solera. Was able to get a new slide from one of the local RV dealers they had to order it, but it was the same thing that was there before. I then replaced the bottom of the pantry with a better piece of hard wood.

You might find the slide rail or something compatible at Rockler Woodworking and Hardware. They have stores in some cities and are on line at: www.rockler.com
or 800-260-9663 (product info) open 8a-6p M-F central time. They're main number is 800-279-4441 and that is open 7a-8:30p M-F and on Sat. from 8a-4:30p CT. Good luck.

Just for fun, (using the Chrome browser), I right-clicked the image and selected "Search Google for image" and found the exact image and many, many similar ones.
Now, I realize you didn't post the actual image of your Solera slide, just a Knapp-Vogt product that looked similar, including this one:

Let me suggest that you take an actual picture of the one in your Solera and use the same process.
