A securable rail guide contains a guide rail, a runner rail arranged in the guide rail and able to travel along the guide rail, and a securing unit which is embodied to fix the runner rail in position in the guide rail in a releasable manner. A locking unit is arranged on the guide rail and is embodied to secure the runner rail in a locked position, and an unlocking unit is arranged on the runner rail. The locking unit and the unlocking unit are parts of the securing unit. The unlocking unit is operatively connected to the locking unit such that an actuation of the unlocking unit releases the runner rail to allow a free movement along the guide rail. This configuration provides a separation of the locking and unlocking mechanisms, as a result of which an independent configuration of the stability of the overall locking mechanism is possible.
