Flat Pack Furniture Assembly in Horsham
IKEA wardrobes, beds, desks and storage built square, levelled on uneven floors and anchored safely to the wall — with the boxes taken away afterwards.
Flat-pack always looks straightforward until you're three hours in with the back panel the wrong way round and a bag of dowels left over. We assemble furniture for homes across Horsham — wardrobes, beds, desks, bookcases and full storage runs — so we know which steps matter, where the instructions are misleading, and how to get a cabinet sitting square on a floor that isn't.
What we build in Horsham
IKEA PAX wardrobes and sliding-door runs, BESTÅ media units, KALLAX and BILLY storage, MALM and HEMNES bedroom furniture, ottoman and divan beds, bunk beds, home-office desks and chairs, garden furniture and BBQs, TV units, sideboards, shoe storage and METOD kitchen carcasses. Argos, Wayfair, Dunelm and Amazon furniture too — the badge on the box doesn't matter.
Built square, levelled and anchored
The difference between furniture that lasts and furniture that sags is in the details: cams tightened evenly, backs pinned square rather than forced, feet packed and levelled so doors hang true on the older uneven floors you get in Victorian Horsham houses, and drawer runners adjusted so everything closes flush. Every tall unit is fixed to the wall with anchors matched to the substrate — rated hollow-wall fixings on the plasterboard and dot-and-dab common in Broadbridge Heath, Southwater and Roffey, proper plugs into masonry elsewhere.
Fixed prices and no cardboard mountain
We agree the items to assemble and the visit price before starting. On request we flatten and take away all the packaging so you're not living around a stack of boxes for a fortnight.

Flat pack assembly Horsham — common questions
How much does flat-pack assembly cost in Horsham?+
It's a fixed price per item or per visit, agreed before we start. As a guide, a chest of drawers or a desk is a short visit, a single PAX-style wardrobe is usually 1.5–3 hours, and a full wall of sliding-door wardrobes is half a day to a full day.
Do you assemble IKEA furniture?+
Constantly — PAX, BESTÅ, KALLAX, MALM, HEMNES, BILLY and METOD kitchen carcasses, plus Argos, Wayfair, Dunelm, Oak Furnitureland and Made-style pieces. If it comes in a box with an allen key, we build it.
Will you fix tall units to the wall?+
Always. Every tall wardrobe, bookcase and chest of drawers gets anchored with fixings matched to your wall — that's a safety must in any home, and especially with children about.
Can you collect the furniture for me?+
We can collect IKEA orders from Croydon or Wembley for an additional fee, which is handy if you don't have a van. Otherwise we'll work with whatever has already been delivered.
Do you take the packaging away?+
On request, yes — cardboard and polystyrene flattened and removed so you're not left with a hallway full of boxes.
What if a part is missing or damaged?+
It happens more often than people expect. We'll identify the exact part number, build everything else we can, and tell you precisely what to order so the second visit is quick.
