This is one of the most comprehensive videos I’ve seen for installing these Ikea vanities. Solved my dilemma about not having the wall studs in the right place without tearing out major portions of drywall, plus a really good workaround for their weird drain connections. Thank you!
Thank you, Doug! I would only recommend strapping the 2x2 (or 2x4) to the wall for vanities with legs as I don’t think it would hold the weight of a floating vanity. Also, be sure that the top of your sink (white porcelain section) clears the wood you strap on the wall. I originally had a 2x4 but later found out it was too thick and was hitting the top of the sink once I placed on the cabinet
Everyone thinks computer guys are smart, I’m a computer guy. But have you seen a computer guy install a vanity? You sir, are a genius, thank you for this video.
Extremely helpful. You're a great teacher - appreciated the simple explanations, and your camera man was good at getting close to what we needed to see.
I just finished replacing all the ikea plumbing I could. Now I have to replace the drain pipe with the ikea part because it’s the only part that will fit. I find all the cheap IKEA plumbing attracts hard water buildup like crazy. But nothing at all with the ABS. So hopefully I won’t have to do this again for a long time. Good video👍🏼
I got lucky with mine, first attempt with heavy duty anchors proved I was wrong. I used four inch screws and hit the studs on an angle. Solid as anything. Awesome video.
good job. I have 2 of these units. yours must be newer version, mine 2014 the overflow connect to a Y-pipe which the inferior flex pipe leak.... real CRAP.
thanks for the video:) can you tell me how I can remove the cover on the back so that I can reach and loosen the screw behind it using an Allen key so that I can remove the mixer tap control lever? I would like to clean the mixer tap. Thank you!
Hey, I’m not sure what you’re trying to do, or if the mixer tap is serviceable. If you’re just trying to remove the mixer you can use a vice grip over a soft towel. Otherwise you might have to Google how to do that.
Thank you for the great video! I’m installing mine currently and bought that little white pipe to black ABS piece at Home Depot but it doesn’t seem to have a good seal when tight. I’m concerned that if there were a clogged pipe then it would leak. Under normal conditions of course there is no issue due to gravity but have you ever had a clog?
No issue with clogs so far. The caveat is that you’ll always run the risk of leaking with mixing pipes, especially ikea pipes which are not standard in North America. The little white pipe should tighten a good seal around the pipes though. You can always experiment with other adapters/elbows.
Great Video, just bought IKEA Odensvik sink and Rinnen pipe system. I try to explain my issue - The overflow black pipe is attached to the white pipe, the problem is that in the white pipe there is no hole (its has a T shape, so you can attach the overflow black pipe on either side) but there is no hole so the overflow water cannot flows down to the white pipe. Should I perforate? Thanks a lot
Yes, you have to knock out the side of the white part that you decide to use. There should be a step in the booklet for this, you can use a screwdriver or something to knock it out.
Amazingly detailed video! Silly question for this particular Ikea vanity/sink, instead of using the 2x2s, can we simply drill and secure to wall studs from the 2x4 back support piece on the vanity itself? at @1:50 instead of the 4 bracket? or would that not be secure enough with just the two legs?
You could do that, but those strips of wood at the back aren’t super secure to bear the load of the cabinet in the long run, as it’s held in by dowels and screws
Hi! I see you showed that you had clearance on the bottom drawer. How was the clearance with the top drawer? I am reading reviews and worrying about the functionality.
The top drawer is pretty shallow and doesn’t have much height, but there’s still lots of clearance for the pipes, it’s how IKEA builds them with efficient of space in mine.
Hi Scott. Great video. What flexible pipe did you get? I scheduled a plumber because i thought i needed to cut a pipe. This video is exactly what i needed. I can do this myself if i can find the same pipe you used.
Hi Sandy, it will depend on the type of pipe you have in your home. I only used flexible pipe because in this case it was cast iron and you can’t glue plastic to it. If you have plastic -> plastic my recommendation would be to measure your pipe diameter and bring your ikea piece to Home Depot and buy a few different 90 degree pipes. You can always return the pieces you don’t end up using. Ask an assistant what type of pipe they would recommend to ensure it follows code.
@@emilygraber7511 yes, snap toggle bolts should work if installed correctly! If you’re using toggle bolts, there may no point for the 2x2 piece of wood then I only used the 2x2 so I could mount it into the studs I don’t recall the length of the 2x2 off hand, but it has to “just” fit inside of the cabinet
Mine came with 3 anchor hooks. Step 47 of the Ikea installation manual shows them place on the top of the vanity before the sink is installed. What are they for? I don't see you use them on your install.
I installed mines but the faucet started to wiggle after a few months.. any reason why? and white size is the green tool to tighten the bolts underneath the faucet? thanks
I would first double check the instructions manual to ensure you installed it correctly, I would then check the bolt to see if it’s tightened. I’m unsure of the exact bolt size but I know IKEA uses metric in North America so it could be a 10mm-12mm size.
Hi, thank you for this. I'm installing one now too. My problem is an old house and floor drain, I've mocked it up using your video as a guide. Question, wouldn't you add glue to the part where the Ikea drain goes into that black and white piece? The one that gets bigger? Sorry for the non-technical names, I'm not a professional, just trying to figure stuff out.
Good question. I wouldn’t add glue because it’s tighten by compression around the IKEA white pipe. You turn the screw and it’s gets tighter and tighter. Also, because it’s a vertical pipe/drain it wouldn’t be necessary
I used a clear 100% silicone to glue the sink to the cabinet. For the sink to the wall, it is recommended you use a white 100% silicone. You want something that is made for bathrooms, so it's 100% waterproof and won't mold.
If your vanity with legs you can srew direct the cabinet to wall studs instead of to have the suport beam because the 2 legs on the ground will bear most of the weight.
Does the overflow drain come in different colors? I've seen black ones in images with black IKEA faucets, but there's no indication if those come with the faucets or the sink.
Got them from both Lowes and Home Depot. They carry most of the same stuff, but only a few pieces were unique to one store. For example, the flexible 90 degree was only available at my Lowes, and the 1/4" to 1/2" reducer you see at 8:25 mark was only available at Home Depot. Just keep everything in the store bag in came in to make for a easier return.
@Scott Taylor I know this video is a little older now but are you able to tell me the measurements from the wall to the longest part of your elbow? Or the measurement from the wall to the back of the drawer so when it’s closed it doesn’t hit the pipe please and thank you. I have been looking everywhere for this measurement but can’t seem to find it. This would greatly aid in my decision to see if I can use this vanity and sink combo Thank you in advance any help would be amazing
@@hammerhog22 the wall to the back of the drawer is approximately 4 inches or about 10 centimetres. It’s very tight. Luckily for me the pipe comes out of the wall between the two drawers.
Used regular spruce/pine/fir 2"x2" wood. You can also use 2"x4" but that may be a little too wide and make contact with the ceramic top when you go to put it on. Always test fit everything first!
I wanted to see if the top drawer clears the pipes. I want to buy an IKEA vanity but the clearance was really small and I wanted to make sure that the pipes clear. I’m trying to do this by myself. Is there anyway you can show how the top drawer fits?
@@ktoffelmire1 Yes, the top drawer clears the drain pipe easily! IKEA uses a very slim drain pipe (white pipe), and the back of the top drawer is very low which allows for it to pass/slide easily. IKEA is very smart with their design, otherwise they wouldn’t sell this as a package :)
Do you think this style and larger size sink would work with a 48x18 inch vanity with space for sink and cabinet doors below the sink? I have a built in cabinet and just want to replace the sink/top.
I'm not sure to be honest, I don't have the dimensions of the sink with me. The IKEA Cabinet also has an open back, so that may be different than your built-in one. You'd have to check IKEA's site
@@scott.charles.taylor what is the distance between the back of the drawer and the wall? In other words, how much can the valves stick out without hitting the drawer? Thanks!
Hi Scott, Dont you need a backsplash for the sick since the wall is not tile ? (I want to know if backsplash is necessary for this vanity before buying it. My bathroom is not tiled where the vanity will go). Thanks
Adding a backsplash will be up to you. In my previous and current home, I've installed a total of 3 of these sinks without a backsplash and never had a problem with water splashing on the wall. They also have a little lip at the back to keep the water contained. If you have kids however, you may want to add a backsplash; but this is something you can always decide later down the road after installation. Also, the paint used in the bathrooms were latex/acrylic bathroom paint so was fairly resistant to moisture and could be wiped down. Hope this helps!
@@scott.charles.taylor Thank you for the video. I need to get the vanity with the top out of the bathroom for tiling the floor. And then to put it back. Since all the plastic pipes are glued together, can they be detached somehow without cutting?
@@mzakuta It will depend on how the pipes were joined, whether you used compression fitting or glued. If glued I would use new pipes are they are relatively cheap.
Damn you got me scared now , I just installed same unit but dry wall was tiled , I bought special screw and metal plugs which seem nice and tight, sink is on and no dodgy movement , just hope it does not fall down, as you have done a stirling job with the two pieces of wood into your studs. Why don't they make them with 4 legs !
I moved to a house that has this sink already installed. I need to take apart the pipes to clean/unclog them. Where can I get the tool that you show at 17:00 ? Is there another generic type of tool that I can use as a replacement?
You should be able to use a wide flat head screw driver, or a large coin, or two screw drivers being pushed in opposite directions. If all fails you can try going to your local ikea to see if they have any in their parts bin. I don’t think there is a generic tool for this unfortunately.
Think you may have to improvise with something to make it work. You can try to use your fingers if you're strong enough, or stuff it with a cloth or something to get it to turn
Open the drawer all the way out, underneath the front of the drawer on either side you'll see two small locking plastic tabs (they might be grey colored), pull those tabs outward which should release the drawer from the sliding rail and now you can lift the front of the drawer upwards, and pull it toward you. Check the IKEA assembly instructions on their page, should depict this well.
@@matthewgaunt1482 A vanity similar to this with drawers should take no longer than 1-2 hours to assemble.

Hi Amanda, I used 3” long screws. See the 11:00 mark in the video :)
