Hello everyone, I hope someone here is familiar with the issue I’m having with my Ikea METOD kitchen cabinet doors. There is an unpleasant squeaking noise that occurs whenever I open or close the doors. I’ve noticed that the sound mostly comes from the hinges, which are specifically designed for this system. I’m interested to know if other users have experienced the same problem and if there is a permanent solution beyond just tightening the screws. Is this a known quality issue or more of an installation problem? Thanks in advance for your experiences and advice!

I can also confirm that regular re-lubrication with a suitable PTFE spray provides a quick fix. If doors remain unusually noisy, simply loosen the hinges slightly, properly align the door, and then tighten the screws again.
