Important Safety Information
IKEA strongly recommends securing the DUKTIG play kitchen to the wall using the included safety bracket. This prevents the furniture from tipping over if a child climbs or hangs on it. Different wall materials require specific types of fixing devices. Always use fixing devices suitable for the walls in your home (these are not included with the product). If there is any uncertainty about the appropriate type of screw or fitting to use, it is advised to contact a local hardware store for guidance. The screw provided with the safety bracket is intended only for attaching the safety bracket to the furniture itself, not for fixing it to the wall.
Required Tools
- Screwdriver ?
- Pencil ✏️
- Ruler ?
- Hammer ?
It is recommended to assemble the furniture on a soft surface to prevent scratches.

Assembly Guide Summary
The DUKTIG play kitchen assembly involves several stages, building from the base upwards. Follow the numerical steps in the original guide for detailed instructions.
- Base Cabinet Assembly: Begin by connecting the main side panels and bottom shelf using screws and dowels.
- Adding Internal Structures: Install internal shelves and the back panel to form the main compartments of the base unit.
- Door and Drawer Installation: Attach the oven door and the cabinet door, ensuring they open and close smoothly. This involves installing hinges and handles.
- Upper Cabinet Assembly: Construct the upper section, including its side panels, shelves, and the microwave door. Install the hanging rail with hooks.
- Attaching Upper to Base: Securely connect the assembled upper cabinet to the base unit.
- Sink and Hob Installation: Place the sink basin into its designated cutout and install the faucet. Insert the hob unit into its opening.
- Final Wall Anchoring: The critical final step involves attaching the anti-tip safety strap to the back of the play kitchen and then securing it to the wall using appropriate wall fixings (not included).
