Hello everyone, a few months ago I bought an IKEA Hemnes chest of drawers and use the drawers daily. Unfortunately, I have noticed that closing the drawers is quite loud and sometimes rattling, which bothers me especially in the evenings. Are there any effective tips or proven methods to reduce the noise from Hemnes drawers? I am particularly interested in practical solutions that can be implemented easily without much effort, including suggestions for suitable materials or modifications to the drawer slides. Thanks in advance for your experiences!

Sometimes even a small adjustment of the drawer alignment makes a difference – just try it and be patient.

This is an important point that I would like to emphasize again. Additionally, make sure no parts are worn or damaged. If they are, it can sometimes be worth ordering replacement parts directly from IKEA.

It can also help to avoid very hard slamming and to close the drawer gently instead. Sometimes it’s simply a matter of habit, sometimes it’s the mechanism.

Good luck with achieving a quiet close!
