KNAGGLIG box 46×31×25 step 5 of 9: Screw two end boards to one end

Stand the box on one end. Lay an end board without a hand-hold across the top next to the bottom, flush with the outside of both long sides, and screw it to the corner posts with 4 screws (108560) and the smaller screwdriver. Lay the second one next to it the same way: 8 screws.

2× End board
8× Screw 108560

Tools: Small cross-head screwdriver

Common mistake: screwing on an end board that is not flush with the sides. Before you drive an end board’s screws, line both its ends up with the outside of the long sides, as the manual shows on pages 5 and 7. A board set down a little to one side is screwed on that way: one end sits back and leaves a step at the corner, and the other end sticks out past the other side. The switch in the player shows what goes wrong.

Tools you need

Cross-head screwdriver · Not in the box: the manual asks for two. This, the larger, drives the 4 long screws (108363).
Small cross-head screwdriver · Not in the box: the smaller of the two the manual asks for, for the 24 screws (108560) that hold the end boards.

Questions

What tools do I need for the KNAGGLIG box?

Two cross-head screwdrivers, as the manual shows: a larger one for the 4 long screws (108363) and a smaller one for the 24 screws (108560).

Can I use a drill?

The manual crosses out a drill for both kinds of screw: turn them in by hand. In soft pine a drill easily drives a screw too far.

An end board does not line up. What do I do?

Take its screws out, push the board until both its ends are flush with the outside of the long sides, and screw it on again.

Can I hang the box on a wall or stand on it?

No. IKEA says it is not made to hang on a wall, and the manual warns against standing on it.

Can I treat the wood?

Yes: it comes untreated, and IKEA says it can be treated with oil or a glazing paint.

Safety

From the manual: do not stand on the box. IKEA says it is not to be hung on a wall.

About this guide

The steps, the part numbers, the counts and the order come from IKEA's assembly manual AA-1159337-8 (2025-10-03). The outer size, 46 × 31 × 25 cm, is IKEA's published size. The box’s size is IKEA’s; the boards’ thickness, the posts, the battens, the slats and the hand-hold are read off the manual’s drawings and IKEA’s photos, so they are close, not measured. The 3D runs faster than real hands do.

The manufacturer's instructions are on IKEA's product page (PDF). If something here differs from the manual in your box, follow the manual.

The 3D models, drawings and text are our own. IKEA and KNAGGLIG are named only to say which product this guide is for.
