Hey Ikea fans,
I am new here, because I am desperate, and hope for your help.
I bought a used Faktum base cabinet (40 cm) with three drawers – and therefore without any instructions.
My plan was to replace the fronts on the drawers with new ones.
With the last generation, before Faktum was discontinued, I can do that, but these drawers seem older (and are also heavier) and apparently I am not wise enough to remove the front!?!
To remove the front of the shallow drawer, you have to push a small metal thing up on the side with a screwdriver and it comes off... but I can’t do that with the deep drawers, because the rods are still there... and they seem to be firmly glued/screwed to the front.
I can’t get any further on the back of the drawer either...
Can someone help me?
I did take photos so you can see which "model" of drawers I have, but I can’t insert them here.
I’m looking forward to support and hope it was okay to create this new topic, I didn’t find anything specifically about this type of drawer...
Best regards
Rebecca
