Hello everyone, I am looking for effective methods to eliminate the squeaking of the doors on my Ikea Hemnes wardrobe. The noise mainly occurs when opening and closing, which could indicate worn or poorly lubricated hinges. I have already tried tightening the screws, but that only helped temporarily. Does anyone have experience with this specific type of furniture and can offer advice on which products or techniques really help to permanently stop the squeaking? I am especially interested in recommendations for suitable lubricants and any routine maintenance that can be done as a preventive measure. Thanks in advance!
I really appreciate how thoroughly you’re addressing the issue with the Ikea Hemnes doors here. I had very similar problems last year, and the squeaking was really frustrating.
What helped me, besides lubrication, was especially a careful check of the door alignment. In my case, the left door was slightly warped, which probably caused uneven stress and led to the squeaking.
Something that also encouraged me: It’s completely normal to feel a bit nervous the first time you remove the door. The important thing is to work systematically and take your time. Eventually, I was grateful for every tip shared here in the forum and learned a lot.
I want to encourage you to tackle this problem—it’s definitely worth it. And if you have any questions or feel unsure about removing the door, just reach out. Sometimes just exchanging ideas can help untangle the issue.
