Questions
What tools do I need for the RAST dresser?
The hex key (100001) and the nail holder (105493) are in the box. You also need a cross-head and a flat screwdriver, a hammer, a pencil and a drill with an 8 mm (5/16 in) bit for the wall.
Do I have to fix RAST to the wall?
Yes. The manual warns that children have died from furniture tipover; the wall fixing kit in the box holds it with two brackets under the top.
Why will the drawer bottom not slide in?
The back must go on after the bottom: the bottom slides into its grooves through the open back. If the back is already on, take it off, slide the bottom in, then put the back back on.
Which drawer goes at the top?
The one with the warning label on its side, as the manual shows on page 19.
What are the stop screws for?
One goes through each drawer side near the back, so a drawer stops before it comes out of the frame.
Safety
From the manual and IKEA’s product page: WARNING! Tipping hazard – this product must be securely anchored to the wall. Children have died from furniture tipover. Use screws and plugs that suit your wall; if you are unsure, seek professional advice.
About this guide
The steps, the part numbers, the counts and the order come from IKEA's assembly manual AA-2413402-4 (2026-09-02). The outer size, 62 × 35 × 68 cm, is IKEA's published size. The dresser’s width, depth and height and the drawers’ inside size are IKEA’s (in inches on its US page); the boards’ thickness, the rails’ heights and where the holes, runners and brackets sit are read off the manual’s drawings, 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 RAST are named only to say which product this guide is for.
