Yes all good

@Ciarán M. Ok great. We just didn't see those items in the box when we assembled the first one. Here is the manual we got and the instructions: https://www.ikea.com/ie/en/assembly_instructions/pax-wardrobe-frame-white__AA-1292270-12-100.pdf We got stuck on step 20 - page 26 as it looks like it's recommending you just drill into the wall and didn't get any other parts e.g. rawl plugs etc. Does it make sense to you? Sorry for all the info, I just want to make sure you have everything you need when you get here. Thanks

No I have everything needed for fixing ikea supply the rest. Steel L brackets and round black plastic spacers

@Ciarán M. Just saw that you could come Monday, that would be great. Do we need to check if we have everything to attach them? We didn't see any anchoring kit, is that something we'd need to buy?

I can do Monday morning

@Ciarán M. Thanks for getting back to me. That sounds great - we're not 100% sure they came with everything you need to attach them to the wall. We did assemble one frame and kind of got stuck at the part to attached it to the wall so could really use help. We're in Ashford in Wicklow, when do you think you could do the job?

Sockets and skirting are no issue as the wardrobes come with spacers to attach to the wall. Yes I've put together many Pax systems

@Ciarán M. Also if you do want to go ahead, when do you think you could do it?

@Ciarán M. Hi Ciaran, Thanks for your response. Just to be clear it's two IKEA PAX wardrobes each 200cm X 35cm X 240cm. The article no. for the wardrobes is 002.145.72 there's 4 of these that make 2 wardrobes. They have sliding doors - IKEA GRIMO) Our main issue securing them to the wall. The bedroom wall has an electrical socket so I'm not sure if they can be secured directly to the wall, might need wood to bridge the gap?? Also would skirting be a problem? Also we were thinking that maybe we could just cut a square in the back of the wardrobe the size of the socket so it could be put right against the wall. Do you have any experience in this area? What do you think? Happy to send photos or do a video call if you want more info.

@Cathal M. Hi Cathal, Just wanted to check in to see if you're still interested in helping us. No worries if not, just trying to make a plan :)

@Zak N. Hi Zak, We can assemble them it's really just securing them to the wall that is our main issue. In the bedroom there's an electric socket so we're not sure if we'd need to attach wood to the wall and the attach the wardrobes or if it's possible to cut out a hole in the back of the wardrobe for the socket so they can be secured directly to the wall. Do you have any experience of securing them to walls? Happy to send pictures of video call if you want more info. They're not assembled yet so would be great if you could let us know if you can assemble and secure them or just secure and what you'd charge for both. Thanks

Hi Leah, Is it that you just need the wardrobes fixed to the wall? Or do you need them assembled as well? What type of wall are they being fixed to dry or solid? Thanks Zak

@Daniel R. Here's the full list - there's no drawers, just baskets, shelves and 2 trouser racks. Our main issue is getting them secured to the walls. In the bedroom there's an electric socket so we're not sure if we'd need to attach wood to the wall and the attach the wardrobes or if it's possible to cut out a hole in the back of the wardrobe for the socket so they can be secured directly to the wall.

That’s no problem, how many baskets in the wardrobes? Is there pulling out drawers if yes how many?

@Daniel R. Hi Daniel, here's the article for the wardrobes: 002.145.72 there's 4 of these that make 2 wardrobes that are 200 x 35 x 240 one in the bedroom and one for hall. They have sliding doors - GRIMO. Do you think you could help? We'd need them secured to the wall

@Cathal M. Thanks - here's the article for the wardrobes: 002.145.72 there's 4 of these that make 2 wardrobes that are 200 x 35 x 240 one in the bedroom and one for hall. They have sliding doors - GRIMO We could go to a hardware and see if we could get some wood this morning. We'd just need it for the bedroom one as the hall wouldn't be against an electric socket. Would skirting be a problem? Also we were thinking that maybe we could just cut a square in the back of the wardrobe the size of the socket so it could be put right against the wall. What do you think?

@Cathal M. Hi Cathal, that would great. We need them secured to the wall but in the bedroom there's an socket so they can't go right up against the wall. I think we'd need to secure a piece of wood to the wall and then secure the wardrobes to that. We've no experience of this, it's an internal wall and we don't think there's any pipes/electrical wires in it but aren't 100%. Would you have experience of this? We're in Ashford. Let me know what you think. Happy to video call and show you before you decide too :) Thanks
