Why is my kitchen design locked?
Your kitchen design might be locked if an IKEA co-worker is currently working on it. No worries, though! You can create a copy of your kitchen drawing and continue designing with the copied version.
A kitchen drawing created in the IKEA kitchen planner becomes locked if you are working on it together with an IKEA co-worker and they are currently importing it to their internal sales system. If you want to be able to proceed with the kitchen design on your end, you can make a copy of the locked drawing and save it under a new name. This way you are able to make all the changes you want in the copied version. This is how to proceed:
- Navigate to the start page of the IKEA kitchen planner.
- Scroll down to you designs, click on the 'Locked' tab where you will find your locked drawing.
- Press 'Create a copy'.
- Save it under a new name and go ahead!
