Design

This model is an Ikea wall spacer that is extra long for when you have to place furniture in front of power outlets or other things but want to secure it properly so that it does not potentially tip and fall over. 

It replaces Ikea part numbers 141413 and 141414. It fits Bestå cupboards and various other Ikea lines.

The SketchUp design file for this model is now included so that you may easily resize this spacer for your own needs.

Useful Information

This object gives you 120mm of clearance behind your piece of furniture to the wall.

The minimum screw size you can get away to secure your furniture to the wall using this object is 150mm long 5mm or 6mm wide - the hole in the middle accommodates 6mm wide screws maximum.

Printing

Ensure enough infill - at least 25% - due to pressure on the object from the screw. 25% will probably do as the large metal Ikea washer spreads this out a bit.

Supports at your own option for the small sticky-outy bits - I tend to get away without them, however fortunately they are at the bottom of the model so you can see what happens without wasting too much plastic.

Safety

This design is intended for safety purposes and it has functioned well for our usage, however you use this design at your own risk. If you are intending to protect human life consider if your print and this design is strong enough and if you have doubts please use an alternative solution.
