ᐅ Ikea Metod Maximera as an inner drawer

Hello dear community, I am currently installing a Metod kitchen. Everything is quite doable so far, but I have a problem with one drawer (Maximera) behind a standard hinged door (40cm (16 inches) cabinet). The drawer can only be opened when the door is perfectly open at a 90-degree angle. If it is opened wider (125-degree hinges/fittings installed), the drawer hits the side edge of the door front. Would using a 95-degree hinge solve this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello, you need the 153° hinge, item number: 002.046.48

Hey, thanks for the quick reply! It’s frustrating that Ikea didn’t tell me this (or include it with my kitchen order), so I have to go there again..

Yes, this is something everyone in the kitchen department should definitely know when it is clear that the inner drawer is behind a hinged door and not a pull-out front. By the way, different dampers are needed for the 153° hinges. Item number: 602.418.22

Dampers?

I don’t understand. I received bags labeled Utrusta 153°. So, an item. I installed them, and to me it looks correct. What exactly are they for? The website says "soft closing." Do they then close by themselves and I only need to give a little push?

You can always close the doors with a push, but they will slam quite loudly without a damper.
