ᐅ What safety guidelines should be followed when assembling the IKEA Brimnes furniture?

To add to the previous advice: Especially with cabinets like the Brimnes, which are often made of particleboard, it is advisable to pre-drill the screws slightly before inserting them, if the material allows. This helps prevent the material from splitting or cracking, which could later affect stability.

Also, it’s a good idea to check the instruction manual for any special warnings from the manufacturer regarding the screws used or load limits. Sometimes these details only become clear upon careful reading.

If you’re unsure whether the existing wall plugs are suitable for your wall, a quick consultation with tradespeople or at a hardware store can be helpful to choose appropriate alternatives.

All in all, consider the assembly as a small DIY challenge and take your time with planning and execution.
