Diy Question

[Jem of the Shire 0]

I'm buying a wall cupboard for my kitchen, but havent done this before - can anyone tell me what I need to fix it to the wall (obviously screws and spirit level), any certain type of brackets?

Hoping there may be someone who's done it themselves in the past.

How old is your house, Jem? And is it an external or internal wall that you'll be fixing the cupboard onto?

Its a 1930's semi, its an internal wall and I think its NOT plasterboard, although i havent checked recently so i cant remember for sure

Why don't you knock and check what its made of?

I remember buying a cupboard from IKEA, and it was a nightmare assembling the pieces!

It's almost certainly a solid brick wall then. Are there any fixing brackets included with the cupboard? If not then you'll probably need to fix the carcass directly to the wall, but don't do it through the hardboard backing. Rawlplugs and a masonry drill bit you will need and it'll help if you have a hammer drill. Go here for a few tips.

As far as I was aware, once anything is bought from an IKEA store then it's impossible to get out of the building.

You should ask Reg Prescott.

The funny thing is when you buy something from the store, you have to go into the warehouse yourself, get it off the shelf, and load it onto a big trolley. Surely people must injure themselves then sue for compensation

You should consider moving countries

Either that or get your flat packs from an intelligent designer...

I can hear a faint scream...sounds like a man trapped in a wall cupboard...nah it's probably my imagination.

I bet Jem's wife comes home to find a poster on the wall where the cupboard was going to go. There is no sign of Jem. She searches high and low but to no avail. Suddenly, out of rage, she throws a kitchen condiment at the poster, only to see it dissapear through the wall.........

Have patience comrades, I havent done it yet! Most likely going to be in february just cos of spare time needed on weekends, side impact tests, homologation, whether to use KERS, new sponsors coming on board (eyew, did I say that?), chassis rig tests, testing slicks for the first time in a while, new aero regs, logistics.... y'know, all the usual stuff at the start of a season................

Sounds to me like someone is stalling.

Went to the DIY store today where I'd seen the wall cabinet I wanted, and the bloody thing isnt there any more, out of stock! So yet another postponement. No matter though, I went to my parents instead and ate enchiladas
