Good evening, this question was asked four years ago, but unfortunately, there was no answer.

Today I assembled the Ivar dresser, but I cannot install the top drawer. I have searched the internet and YouTube, but found no solution. The mother who was called for help couldn’t assist either. We even tried filing down a bit of the drawer, but that didn’t help. I would be very grateful for any tips on how to get the drawer installed!

I think that when I look at

Step 2: Attach back panel to metal frame; two mounting rails visible; Do not use 101345


and

the rails inside the cabinet are installed incorrectly. The wheel should probably be at the bottom.

I have now screwed them in the opposite way, but they still don’t fit. Either the middle drawer won’t close (as shown in the picture) or I can’t open it because it gets stuck under the top one. 🙁

If this were a kitchen front, I would say read page 16 and use the correct holes for the front.

Definitely roll the chair downwards

The rollers are now installed at the bottom, as was already clarified. It’s not a kitchen front, and the holes for the trims are pre-drilled. You can’t use different ones. Still, the middle drawer doesn’t fit. And yes, I swapped the drawers among themselves. None of the three fit. Unfortunately.
