ᐅ Dampers for full-extension Ikea Faktum drawers

Hello everyone,

I want to retrofit soft-close dampers on the full-extension drawers of my Faktum Ikea kitchen.
For the sink cabinet, this worked without any issues. It came with those round dampers.
However, it’s different for the regular base cabinet with three drawers. Are there different systems for that?

Best regards,
Tobi

Hi

I have the same cabinet. What works well with the standard drawers is rather mediocre with this cabinet. You can save your money. The drawers do close on their own, but they don’t do so gently or quietly, especially if you have glass bottles like vinegar and oil in the bottom drawer.

I imagine these dampers are designed for 60cm (24 inches) wide drawers but are too strong for the smaller 30cm (12 inches) wide drawers.

This is the sink cabinet as described, with the round soft-close dampers. However, I have another cabinet where the parts don’t fit. At least, the drawer looks different.

Hmm, your description of the standard cabinet is a bit brief. Just share a link to your cabinet, and then we can help better.

There are different types of drawers, with and without soft-close mechanisms. Drawers without soft-close can be retrofitted with the soft-close device mentioned above.

You can check on the website which drawer model you have. When you click on the respective model, it will also show which accessories are available for it.

Is your cabinet/drawers older? I mean, a few years ago there was a system change for the drawers.

It works well with my 30cm (12 inches) cabinet.
You probably have cabinets with drawers that were purchased before 2007 or outside Germany. Please upload a picture of the rails.

I believe the cabinet was purchased in 2003, as I took parts of the kitchen with me when I moved 5 years ago, likely including the cabinet.

I have now taken a photo. How can I upload it?
