4x PAX wardrobes Ikea - all damaged on delivery

[Abyss]

Getting sliding doors, but the plain fronted flat ones not the modular or glass panelled ones.

Just bear in mind most of the sliding doors are 75cm wide as opposed to 50cm. Not convinced you'd get them in a 3 series.

This reminds me of the Thule van canopy I had delivered back in September. Clear instructions on the box to store flat, fragile etc, a £1200 awning and it arrived like this:

They were 55cm wide boxes, 2.4m long. I got the first set in ok, perched over the front passenger seat laid as flat as possible. Decided against trying to get 2 pairs in at once so going back for the 2nd pair tonight.

Even more issues with this bloody IKEA stuff.

Assembling the sliding doors tonight. Each door comes in two halves you have to put together with dowels and cam locks.

First door goes together fine, it's stiff to get tight together but it's ok eventually. Lock it all together with the cam locks.

2nd door even stiffer to get tight together, then the cam locks, when trying to tighten them, are ripping the wood of the door apart and won't tighten up.

But because the dowels are so stiff to fit the two halves together, I now can't get them apart to put the item back into the car for returning it. I've had to slide the part assembled door over the tops of the headrests in the car, it barely went in, and I will have to drive it back like this with it over the top of my head.

And because I've already assembled one door and fitted the rails and used some of the various screws, cam locks and dowels, I will now need them to also give me some additional fixings that are now stuck inside the door I can't get apart..
