Hello everyone, I am planning to combine several Ikea Besta units into a large arrangement to create as much storage space as possible in my living room. I want to connect the modules in a way that ensures both stability and a cohesive appearance. My specific questions are:
- Which connectors or brackets are best suited to securely join the individual Besta cabinets?
- Are there any special structural or load-bearing considerations I should be aware of, especially when combining units of different heights?
- Do you have any practical assembly tips, such as the order of construction or the best way to fix the entire setup to the wall?
So far, I only have experience with single pieces of furniture, so I would really appreciate detailed advice on how to build a stable, large unit from multiple Besta modules.

One more tip: When assembling the modules, always work from bottom to top. This way, you avoid the upper units pressing down on the lower ones, which reduces the risk of screws loosening. Always tighten wall fastenings to ensure stability.
