If you own an IKEA chest or dresser that is not securely attached to the wall, IKEA currently offers a free wall-anchoring kit. This is a practical furniture-safety offer—not a coupon, contest, or purchase rebate.
Who the free kit is for
IKEA’s U.S. safety page directs owners of IKEA chests and dressers to request a free kit when they need the wall-attachment hardware. The company especially urges families to anchor clothing-storage furniture because an unsecured chest or dresser can tip over, with children facing the greatest risk.
This offer is meant for an IKEA chest or dresser you already own. It is not a general-purpose hardware giveaway for unrelated furniture. IKEA does not list an expiration date on the current U.S. request page, but the program and fulfillment details can change.
What IKEA provides
IKEA describes the wall-anchor repair kit as free and says its recall kit includes hardware and instructions for attaching the furniture to the wall. Wall construction varies, however, so follow the instructions and make sure the fasteners are suitable for your wall type. IKEA’s safety guide recommends anchoring into a wall stud when possible and consulting a hardware retailer if your wall material is not covered.
The official pages do not provide a universal delivery estimate for mailed kits. They also do not promise that every wall type can be handled with exactly the same fasteners, so check the instructions before installation.
How to request the free wall-anchoring kit
- Open IKEA’s official Creating Safer Homes Together page.
- Select the link to order a wall-anchoring kit for free.
- Provide the requested information about your IKEA chest or dresser and your contact or delivery details.
- Follow the included instructions and use hardware appropriate for your wall.
If your dresser is part of an IKEA recall
Owners of furniture covered by IKEA’s chest-and-dresser recalls may have additional remedies. Depending on the product and circumstances, IKEA lists a free wall-anchor repair kit, free installation assistance, or a refund. Review the official recall page before choosing an option. IKEA says receipts are typically not required for recall participation, although it reserves the right to request one.
Safety note: If a recalled chest or dresser is not anchored, IKEA advises stopping use and keeping it away from children until it is secured or otherwise resolved.
