Wow' thanks JT. IF you had not made this SPECIFIC video, I couldn't have convinced my father that I could install it. You see, I bought this cabinet and sink recently for a rental and (since my so-called 'handy' man couldn't install it) I've had it in my garage since then. I recently moved into my father's house to support his wish to age in place and began a basement reno. He balked at my fitting it myself UNTIL I showed him this video. Thanks to you, I have been (allowed to, and...) able to do most of the project myself. Please forgive the gush when I say that I'm thrilled that an honest, skilled tradesman has found such great success by doing something that straight-up helps people. And you are Canadian-- which makes me an even prouder one!

@f.fraijo2736 6 лет назад

The best part of this video is seeing that you ran into issues and tripped for a second, but were able to get it right in the end. No studs behind the drywall, dropping your tape measure... The same crap normal dudes run into during these type of projects. Thanks for these vids!

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Hey, do you know if kitchen faucets from ikea fit bathroom sinks? I checked the height, distance, it's fine, i only ask for the diameter of the base. Since they seem same diameter, and ikea doesn't give any measurements on the online pdf documents unfortunately. (i can't go to store personally)

Getting ready to install my 7th and 8th IKEA Godmorgon sink this weekend. The instructions recommend drilling holes and wood screws through the back support into the stud locations. I usually use those super duty wall hangers. I would have liked to see Jeff connecting the drain. The drain piece has been the biggest hassle with these, for me.

@coreygrua3271 6 лет назад

I love IKEA methodology (and their prices). I also greatly admire Jeff Thorman’s astute practicality and his ability to call that spade an actual spade. For me, these two philosophies on the same video creates a masterpiece. There are lots of good RU-vids and a few masterpiece RU-vids. This is one of the latter.

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

Thank Cory! I find myself doing some pretty practical things in my day, so when I get a chance to share I do.

Awesome tutorial on IKEA product. I worked for the company for 4yrs and did assembly in the store and progressed to starting my own Handyman assembly for IKEA products. It's very lucrative in California, then had to relocate due to bitter divorce to South Carolina. Totally different species, I would love to work with customers again doing the same type of work. I watch a lot of your videos and their spot on and your humbleness to teach DIY about the craft you're BLESSED with and LOVE to share. GOD BLESS YOU and your family and keep up the GREAT work.

@danervin2530 4 года назад

@26:45, the little rubber “plug” sitting on your left, goes over the end of that key tool. The rubber creates plenty of grip on the overflow flange and really lets you snug it up tight. Great install Jeff. If you’ve got a few minutes of patience, and half a brain, it’s easy to see that Ikea stuff is VERY thoroughly thought out and engineered. Albeit Scandinavian so slightly different in some aspects, it really is insanely good value for the money.

I stumbled across one of your videos several months ago when preparing to do a major renovation in a rental property. Since then I’ve continually come back to your channel as a reliable source of information, advice and tricks of the trade. Your presentation style if really clear and understandable - and realistic. The fact that you don’t cut out the times when you struggle with IKEA instructions or accidentally drop the measuring tape down the backside of the wall are great! Your credibility goes up in my books - and reassures me that I can complete the jobs despite all the stupid things that occur during the project. Thanks for these awesome videos - they really are fantastic.

@janetstone236 5 лет назад

Very helpful on the addition of the 'sister studs' for proper support. I am planning this project for my brothers house - we are also hanging heavy cruise ship mirror and light fixture, so getting lots of ideas for the sister stud addition since it is 'very small 34" wall, barely having 2 studs. Thanks!

@knbagnall 3 года назад

This can be secured to wall without opening the drywall. Those 4 metal brackets have additional sets of holes to be set back 1/2 inch to accommodate horizontal wood support which secures to the studs. The brackets then secure to the two horizontal wood supports. Ikea does not supply the wood supports so you will need to cut it yourself. The optional ikea legs should also be used for additional support.

@mrbeatts1 3 года назад

This video was very helpful, thank you. I actually had studs right where I needed them believe it or not, so I didn't have to use your helpful suggestions, but great to know for the future. I had a friend with me, so using a normal level worked just fine.

Very much appreciate the level of detail and variables to consider. Thanks for giving me a good reason to buy one more tool; a laser level. One thing that, if clarified, would help complete your tutorial is to discuss whether a similar metal drain system to the Ikea version can be pieced together when using a non Ikea sink/faucet since the drawers are not notched for conventional plumbing.

@danielmumby1525 4 года назад

Nice work, Jeff. The only note I'd make on the Ikea furniture is that you should always make sure that the cams are accessible (I noticed that one of your strips had the cams facing words the wall), And these things can work loose over time, so I always want to be able to tighten them up without haviing to uninstall.

@P46345 5 лет назад

Back in the late 90's I was a union millwright down here in the states and we all used Craftsman tape measures, they got butchered all the time and they always gave you a new one at Sears. Those were the days.

@francoislapalme8015 5 лет назад

I wasn't sure on how to screw the vanity to the wall but your video on bracing the lumber to the floor and to the wall joists provided me with the know how on properly install the vanity. Also it is my understanding that IKEA faucet and sink are made for each other in that when you open the water, water will not splash all over the place. Thanks again for your video, Francois from Ottawa

Love this video, thanks so much! I'm getting ready to install this vanity in a couple weeks so it's very timely. I'm installing subway tile on the wall behind the vanity, so I'm thinking I'll cut out the drywall and mount 3/4" strips of wood between 2 studs. This should leave the wood flush with the finished tile and give me a place to mount the vanity hanging hardware.

I have lath & plaster walls, so that part will be scary (on so many levels), but the sink/cab install is priceless. Thank you!

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 6 лет назад

If you open a hole in the wall with a multitool you will find that behind the lath there is a 2x4 cavity just like this one. You just need a longer screw. If your vanity is going on an outside wall then you may have solid wood to screw to behind the lath.

@bgregg55 5 лет назад

Good video and good tips as always. Crappy how you had to cut the drywall and you lost a tape measure in the process but hey at least it worked out. And I personally have found it way easier to install as much of the sink attachments like the drain and faucet assembly and so forth before putting the sink on the cabinet. Its just easier then fumbling around underneath in tight and sometimes impossible quarter's I think.

I would use the leg supports that are available, heavy drywall anchors on the metal brackets and then screw the back support pieces to the studs. The legs defeat the open concept to some degree but they aren’t to obtrusive. Love your videos by the way. Cheers.

@jaslll4396 6 лет назад

The vanity support needs more than just supporting the downward force. The vanity will exert a torquing force on that 2x4. I would tie in that added support to a stud or just put front legs on the vanity.

@bgregg55 5 лет назад

That's a great point. You may get a vanity for cheap but you have to consider the added trouble for the install. I'll stick with floor mount cabinets.
