How do I fix the gap between my IKEA door front and frame on the BESTA unit?
If you've installed BESTA push open runners (104.883.16), the slight gap between the drawer front and frame is necessary for the push-open mechanism to work properly.
If you've installed BESTA push open runners (104.883.16), a slight gap between the drawer front and frame is normal to allow space for the push-open mechanism. Unfortunately, this gap cannot be modified. You may check out the video on the product page for better understanding.
However, if you prefer not to have this gap, you can opt for BESTA soft-closing runners (203.487.16) instead. These runners do not require extra space, and you can add knobs or handles for easier use.
