Hello everyone,
I am planning to assemble some furniture from the IKEA Hemnes series soon and want to prepare well in advance. My question is: which tools should I definitely have on hand for assembling IKEA Hemnes furniture?
I want to avoid having to get extra tools during the process, as I plan to assemble several pieces at once. It would be great if you could provide me with a detailed list, including whether specific screwdrivers, bits, or other aids are recommended.
I appreciate any tips—especially advice on what is truly essential and what can be considered more optional.
Best regards!

The first time I assembled it, I did everything manually and was completely exhausted afterward – it took about three times as long as necessary.
Also, a small tip: prepare a protective surface so the furniture parts don’t get scratched while screwing. I use an old blanket or a large towel.
And yes, a rubber mallet is really useful because it prevents hitting the surface too hard – this way, everything stays nice and intact. Good luck with the assembly; it will definitely turn out well!
