Can I modify or change my IKEA product?
Any changes you make to a product will void the guarantee.
The safety of our customers is at the heart of how we design our products. That's why we take care to design them in a way that prevents any accidents, so you can feel safe in your home.
Any modifications you do to a product such as drilling holes or removing parts during use will void all guarantees as the product will no longer functions as intended. Modifications may also damage the integrity of the product's structure. Therefore, we recommend that our customer's carefully read and follow the assembly instructions.
Products that indicate the need to be anchored must be fixed to the wall for safety reasons. These are required when indicated in the assembly instructions and failure to do so will void the guarantee.
We recommend reading our Secure It! and Tipping Over information on our website for assistance with how to correctly assess and attach your furniture to the wall.
