When furniture should be fixed to the wall
Wardrobes, drawers and shelving: when to secure them to the wall and what to check before drilling.
Tall, narrow furniture or units with drawers can tip when opened or pushed. Fixing is especially important with children, pets, uneven floors or heavy doors.
Tip-over risk
Height-to-depth ratio, door weight and open drawers all affect stability.
Wall and fixing
The fixing must suit the wall material, and the position should be checked for cables and pipes.
Level first
Level and adjust the furniture first, then secure it without distorting the frame.
Mistakes to avoid
- Using one universal plug for every wall
- Fixing furniture while unlevel
- Relying only on the skirting board
THEVULGO tip
Always follow the manufacturer's guidance. If the supplied fixing does not suit your wall, use an appropriate one.
