It's unfortunate that Ikea doesn't seem to publicize this or provide drive heads with their furniture (AFAIR). I was glad I picked some up before I did a kitchen with Ikea cabinets. It saved me a lot of grief.
- hvidgaard 8y agoI don't think they provide it with their kitchen elements, but for all furniture they provide a hex key for assembly and assume that you have a screw driver yourself.
- rconti 8y agoAssume you have a posidrive screwdriver, which you probably don't. That was the point of this thread.
- telchar 8y agoExactly so, 99% of people have never heard of posidriv and don't have the bits, or don't know they have the bits. I couldn't find anywhere in instructions or the website where Ikea mentions that you should use them, but sure enough every screw used posidriv.
- hvidgaard 8y agoAt all of the nearby hardware stores, there is a wide arrangement of pozidrive screwdrivers. If I recall correctly all of my "cross" bits for the powertool is pozidrive as well. It may not be widely available in the US, but it certainly is here in Denmark.
- dragonwriter 8y agoPozidrive screwdrivers and bits are readily available in the US but have low cultural awareness; particularly, the indicator that heads require them and not Phillips is not recognized.
