NicNocoHello and help
I have assembled a BRUSALI 3-door wardrobe. The instructions were missing—but I was able to download them.
So far, so good.
Now it’s standing here—the mirrored door is in place, but the doors on the right and left don’t fit.
At first, it looks like the dowels are too short—but according to the parts list, there are 10 identical dowels included.
So, are the doors too wide?
There are decorative strips on the right and left—no matter what I do, the doors won’t fit.
Help—what should I do now? I’ve never had anything from Ikea not fit before.
Best regards

Maybe you could take a few pictures.
Do you mean the dowels with the quick connectors 118331? Those are the only ones of which there should be 10 pieces. But they belong to the carcass, not to the doors.
Did you make sure during assembly that the "legs" are installed lengthwise at the back and crosswise at the front? This makes the clear dimension smaller at the front than at the back. I could imagine this as a possible source of error—that you confused the front and back sides.
Best regards

I cannot understand how a hinge would not fit without a door. Pictures (overall view and details) would be helpful. Pictures can be uploaded to the photo gallery,

The image should actually be rotated 90 degrees... the left cabinet side panel is shown at the bottom of the picture. How can I join the two hinge parts when this annoying panel is in the way? The middle mirrored door was not a problem for me, but I’m still struggling with these outer doors.
