Hello everyone, I hope someone can help me here: Where can I buy replacement fasteners for the Ikea Billy bookshelf?
Some time ago, I bought a BILLY bookshelf, and unfortunately, the wall mounting brackets have been lost. Since I want to securely attach the shelf to the wall now, I need the exact matching set of screws and wall plugs. Unfortunately, Ikea only offers the entire bookshelf as a replacement, which I find unnecessary.
Does anyone have any ideas or experience where I can buy the original mounting hardware without having to purchase the whole piece of furniture again? I mean the official or at least compatible set, as I don’t want to just use random brackets or screws from a construction site to avoid compromising safety.
Thanks for any tips or advice!

Step 1: Contact Ikea customer service, preferably by phone or chat, and explicitly ask for the mounting hardware for the BILLY bookshelf. I would like to add the following:
The Ikea assembly instructions for the BILLY bookshelf specify the details of the fastening components. It is recommended to download the instructions in PDF format from Ikea’s website, where you can also find lists with the article numbers for screws and wall plugs.
When you contact customer service, you can provide these numbers and ask specifically for these replacement parts. Most service representatives are then better equipped to assist you.
If you need help downloading the instructions, I’m happy to assist.

Feel free to ask at the Ikea store if they sell the set individually. That’s a very good tip! Local Ikea stores often have small spare parts available that aren’t sold online. If you can pick them up in person, this is sometimes the fastest and most reliable option.
Here’s another tip: If you decide to go for a hardware store set, use wall plugs suitable for your wall type (e.g., hollow wall anchors for drywall) and screws with a low-profile head to keep the drill holes neat.
This way, you can still securely attach the BILLY shelf even without the original set.
