Mounting bar for casters [message #18015]

I have a 1G+1H cabinet, similar in size/shape to a 2x15 cabinet. My casters seem to have been mounted directly onto the bottom panel (no flat metal mounting bar), and when encountering a recent threshold one caster snagged and pulled the wooden plys apart creating a difficult transport.

I would like to incorporate a pair of mounting bars (like on my 3x15 cabinet) if anyone has knowledge of where I may find a pair or has a dimensional drawing for them.

The mounting bars where aluminum 1/8" flat stock which can be had at most hardware stores, the width of flat stock you need is dependant on how wide your casters mounting pad is.
note that the stock needs to be counter bored to allow the caster mounting screw heads(taper head type) to clear the bottom of the stock and allow for flush bar mounting!
The two bars lenght falls between the front and back of the cabinet by 3/4".
