Hello everyone,
I am planning to attach an Ikea Pax wardrobe to a concrete wall and would like to know the best and safest way to do this. Which anchors and screws do you recommend for this type of wall? Are there any special tips for the installation to ensure the wardrobe is securely and permanently fixed without coming loose? I intend to anchor the wardrobe mainly to standard concrete, not to aerated concrete blocks or similar, and I don’t have much experience with fixing to these kinds of walls.
Thank you very much in advance for your advice!

Thanks for your quick tips! One more question: Do you have any recommendations for brands or types of heavy-duty anchors for concrete that are especially reliable? I don’t want to experiment since the cabinet will be quite heavily loaded. Also, how many fixing points should be used at minimum for a PAX that is 100 cm (40 inches) wide?

The diameter is more important than the brand. Use at least 4 fixing points for a width of 100 cm (40 inches).
