What You’ll Need
Before you begin, make sure you have the following tools and materials:
- Besta IKEA hinges
- Screwdriver
- Measuring tape
- Pencil
Step 1: Preparation
Start by measuring and marking the placement of your hinges on the Besta furniture. Take accurate measurements to ensure the hinges are correctly positioned. Use a pencil to mark the spots where the screws will go.
Step 2: Attach the Hinges
Using a screwdriver, attach the hinges to the back of the cabinet doors. Align the hinges with the markings you made in the previous step and ensure they are level. Tighten the screws securely, but be careful not to overtighten and strip the holes.
Step 3: Mounting the Hinges
Now it’s time to mount the hinges on the Besta furniture itself. Hold the door in the desired position and attach the hinges to the cabinet frame. Make sure the doors are properly aligned, level, and have the desired amount of gap between them. Secure the hinges to the frame using a screwdriver.
Step 4: Adjusting the Hinges
If the doors are not closing smoothly or are not aligned perfectly, you may need to make adjustments to the hinges. Most Besta IKEA hinges feature adjustable settings to optimize the door position. Utilize the adjustment screws on the hinges to fine-tune the alignment and ensure a flawless operation.
Step 5: Testing and Finishing
With the hinges securely in place, carefully open and close the doors to check their functionality. Ensure they open and close smoothly without any obstructions or misalignments. If everything looks good, give the furniture a final polish and admire your newly installed Besta hinges!
By following these step-by-step instructions, you can easily assemble Besta IKEA hinges for your furniture. Enjoy the improved convenience and functionality that hinges bring to your Besta cabinets and doors!
