Hello everyone, I recently purchased an IKEA Hemnes wardrobe and am currently facing the issue of properly mounting and securing the doors. The hinges and fastening materials are included in the delivery, but I am unsure how to hang the doors securely and adjust them correctly so that they close smoothly and do not sag. Could you please provide a detailed guide or tips on how to professionally attach the IKEA Hemnes wardrobe doors? Advice on the necessary tools, recommended steps for aligning the doors, or common mistakes to avoid would also be very helpful. Thanks in advance!
I had the same issue with my Hemnes wardrobe. It really helps to first mount the doors roughly and then spend time carefully adjusting them, without changing the fastenings too much. Sometimes it can also help to slightly loosen the hinges on the cabinet frame before mounting and then tighten them again during the adjustment. Additionally, I recommend regularly checking the doors, especially since the wood can warp slightly due to humidity. This will give you the best long-term stability.

This prevents the door from opening or closing over time due to tension.
