Wondering if anyone can help.

I am wanting to install a very straightforward galley utility area and would like to use Ikea units. All base level cabinets. I have selected the units online etc but it's telling me I also need to buy fixings. But it doesn't link to the fixing to the wall or tell me what it's called and I can't find it on the site or on google. Does anyone know what the bracket or fixing is called on the site that I need? I would prefer to just order online rather than speak to someone as I have found their customer service extremely slow in the past and I would like to put this order in asap!! Anything else I won't have automatically? I have the plinth and the legs ordered Thanks for any help!! Flowers

If you do it in the planner it put everything you need in your basket or gives you the names

cant you email and ask them?

Do you mean the bits where they say you need to buy fixings suitable for your wall?

They just mean screws from any hardware shop. Obviously the type of screw will depend on what your wall construction is (plasterboard, brick etc).

sleepyhead I think you're right and I'm second guessing. I thought they attached via a special Ikea bracket but my FIL tells me he just bolted his onto his plasterboard. So thinking I'm overthinking!! Blush

There is a suspension rail for the wall cabinets to go on
