Hello everyone, I am specifically looking for affordable replacement parts for IKEA Brimnes furniture, as some screws and fittings on my dresser are damaged. I would prefer not to replace the entire piece of furniture and am wondering where to find such parts cheaply and reliably. Has anyone had experience with official or alternative sources for original or compatible replacement parts? I would appreciate any tips or specific suppliers you could recommend.
Hello Loamit, I once had a similar issue with my Brimnes dresser. Handles and screws from the hardware store didn’t work out well for me because I was always worried they wouldn’t fit perfectly or might start to rust over time. I ended up ordering some replacement parts through IKEA’s customer service – it was quick, and the prices were actually reasonable.
Sometimes it’s also worth looking for used replacement parts, for example on classified ads, where you can find real bargains. Back then, I managed to put together a set of original screws and handles quite cheaply. It works great if you know your exact model.

Sometimes it’s worth buying spare parts secondhand, for example on classifieds sites, where you can find real bargains.That’s a good point. Used spare parts often allow cost savings and are environmentally friendly. However, when buying used parts, it is important to check their condition and completeness to avoid problems later on. This is especially true for hinges or handles, where testing their function is recommended.
Replacement parts for IKEA Brimnes are available directly from IKEA or second-hand. If you only need screws, you can find suitable Euro screws at any hardware store, which are commonly used in many IKEA furniture pieces. Important: The length and thread must match, which you can measure using an existing screw.

For broken handles, you can often find affordable suitable alternatives at hardware stores or furniture accessory shops with a bit of research. Pay attention to the hole spacing.Thanks, the tip about the hole spacing is really helpful. I will measure the dimensions carefully before ordering replacement parts.
Also, based on your advice, I am leaning towards ordering the original screws directly from IKEA customer service and being more flexible with the handles to save costs. If anyone has reliable sources or personal experiences with alternative suppliers, please share!
