Hello everyone, I am planning to equip my IKEA Platsa furniture with handle strips and am looking for practical, durable solutions. Specifically, I am interested in options to mount the handle strips neatly and securely without damaging the furniture surface. Which materials are best suited, how can the appropriate length of the handle strips be determined, and are there any proven installation methods? I also want to keep the look as close as possible to the original IKEA design. Looking forward to your tips and advice!

Alternatively, high-quality adhesive or double-sided mounting tape can be used if the cabinet front is not load-bearing.

This works well but requires a very clean surface and a long curing time to ensure safety. Screws are mechanically more secure, especially for frequently used cabinets or doors.
