Fixing Guide: METOD Structures

According to IKEA instructions

There are three types of METOD modules depending on their size and position:

  • Base units: floor-standing units that reach up to the worktop.
  • Tall units or columns: floor-standing units of great height.
  • Wall units: units hanging on the wall without touching the floor.

In any METOD furniture the fixing of the furniture is mandatory to avoid accidents.

To fix the furniture to the wall, a ↔200 cm galvanized suspension rail is used, with which all the hulls are perfectly aligned at the same time. If your furniture line is shorter than 200 cm, this rail will have to be cut.

First of all, following the instructions of the corresponding IKEA structure, attach some metal L's to the hull, which will then be the ones that will be hooked to the rails.



Once the rail is fixed to the wall, the hull is hung to the rail and screwed to the wall. 

Make sure that the screws match the joists.



Remember that a minimum spacing of ↕60 cm is recommended between base units and wall units.
