Hello everyone,

I recently assembled several pieces of furniture from the Ikea Brimnes series, mainly wardrobes and dressers. I noticed that some parts needed minor adjustments after a few weeks because doors no longer closed smoothly or drawers didn’t slide as easily.

My specific question is: How often do Ikea Brimnes furniture pieces typically need readjustment before they settle properly? Are there particular areas to pay special attention to in order to ensure long-term stability and functionality?

I would really appreciate your experiences so I know what to expect and how best to handle this.

So far, I’ve only used the small plastic feet that came with it, which can sometimes be slightly adjusted

These feet are really handy, but on uneven floors, I sometimes swap them for furniture glides with felt pads. They are more stable and also make moving furniture easier.

And yes, check them from time to time — but it’s usually not much. You might even come to see the occasional readjustment as a little ritual, like a mini maintenance for your furniture 😄.
