I wanted taller drawers with the ikea alex (wide) drawers so decided to make some brackets to connect two of the drawers

I love the size of the wide ikea alex drawers but all the drawers are shorter than the ones found on the original alex drawers. the standard brackets are sufficient for both the back and front for simpler printing but I like the alignment the back bracket provides so I'm providing both.

Printing: any default print settings should be fine. Here's mine

  • .25mm layer height
  • 3 perimeters
  • 5% infill
  • PLA

Installation:

  • remove the bottom of the top drawer
  • the print has features that use the slot for the drawer bottom and gap between the two drawers to align itself
  • There are slots for m3 screws but I ended up getting away with just VHB tape and it has worked fine
  • 4 brackets (2 each side) provides the best stability
