Hello,

I’m really frustrated and urgently need some advice. I bought a Besta cabinet with 2 drawers on top and 2 cabinets below. It’s assembled and mounted on the wall. But how on earth do I get the fronts to align properly? They just won’t sit parallel, and on top of that, the drawers are sticking out. Why is this happening? Pictures:

Hello, you can adjust the gaps using the knurled screws at the front of the rail under the drawer (see assembly instructions).

I have already done that. The pictures above show the final result.

Hello,

It looked like that for us too. My husband somehow managed to fix it reasonably well, but at some point I stopped getting involved (we can't work together on handiwork). So unfortunately, I can’t say exactly how he solved it. I assume it was done in a rather complicated way, involving new drillings, etc.
