Hi,

I have assembled and fitted a MFI/schreiber bedroom, but I made a
mistake by following the instructions! Therefore now I have two chest
of drawers where the drawers do not fit correctly. (The right hand
side edge of the drawers is about 20mm proud of the front of the
units.) Since the drawers are glued together I'm not sure how to make
them fit.

Any ideas, please (that don't involve an axe!)?


Are you absolutely sure that the carcass is perfectly square? Any of the
dowels not located properly?

As sure I can be, I think. All the dowels appear to be located
properly, the cam bolts are all done up tight and there's no noticable
gaps between the joints of the carcass.

I think the problem is that I first fitted the drawers into the
carcass when it was free-standing and did not have enough strength to
remain square. Now that the carcases are fixed to the wall they are
rigid.

I could be wrong, however.

Mark.
