Hello everyone,
I have an issue with my IKEA Kallax doors: they seem to close properly only on one side. On one side, the door almost closes by itself, but on the other side, I have to push it firmly to get it to close. This is quite annoying because I’m worried that the hinges might get damaged over time or eventually not hold properly.
Maybe someone has experience with this issue? Are there any tips or adjustments to balance the doors so they close easily from both sides without force? I’ve already tried adjusting the hinges slightly, but that hasn’t helped much so far.
Thanks in advance for any advice!

I once had a similar issue and just tried removing the doors along with the hinges completely, then properly tightened all the screws again.Thanks for the tip, I’ll give that a try right away.

Use original parts from IKEA and readjust both doors.I also think it makes sense to rely on original replacement parts if tightening the screws doesn’t make the doors close smoothly. So I’ll start by thoroughly tightening the screws and reinstalling the doors, and if that doesn’t help, I’ll ask IKEA for replacement hinges.
If anyone has any other ideas why the door only sticks on one side when closing, please share!
