Hello everyone,

I have an issue with installing the handles on the Nyckelby doors, which are attached to the Billy shelving unit. According to the instructions, the handles should simply be inserted on one side into the aluminum profile of the door frame and then clipped outward over the profile until a small tab on the outer edge of the profile snaps into place. However, the handles are made so precisely that I can’t get this tab over the profile edge. I could apply more force, but I’m hesitant because the frame already deforms significantly under pressure. This also puts a lot of pressure on the glass panel. Are there known cases where the handles were simply made too tight? Do I perhaps need to use a bit more "brute" force? Any advice would be appreciated.

Best regards,
