Extending Besta Top Panels Beyond Three Doors

By Kristel • Last updated on Nov 08, 2024

Due to the nature of our raw materials, Norse Interiors tops cannot exceed the length of a three-door unit. However, we offer solutions to create a longer top by joining multiple pieces. This approach allows for a seamless, continuous appearance across longer setups, which many customers have successfully used to extend their IKEA Besta units.

Why Tops Are Limited to Three-Door Lengths

Our commitment to quality materials and construction standards means that we source specific raw materials that work best for designs up to three doors in length. This limitation is set to ensure the durability, functionality, and aesthetic of the top. Extending beyond this length would compromise the material’s structural integrity and overall appearance.

Custom Options for Longer Setups

For customers seeking a top that spans more than three doors, we provide a tailored approach. By connecting two or more tops, we ensure the joint is as subtle and seamless as possible, maintaining the visual flow across the unit. This jointed configuration is an ideal solution for setups that need to cover more than three doors, offering flexibility while upholding the Norse Interiors design standard.

Benefits of the Jointed Top Solution

  • Extended Length Options: By adding jointed tops, you can customize your furniture to meet your space and design needs, even beyond the standard three-door length limit.

  • Seamless Visual Appeal: The joints are crafted to ensure they’re discreet and don’t interrupt the overall flow of the top.

  • Proven Customer Satisfaction: This solution is popular among our customers, who appreciate the look and functionality it provides for extended setups.

Installation and Care

For the best results, ensure each top is aligned and installed correctly to achieve the most seamless look. To help with installation and care:

  • Align the Units Carefully: When connecting units, ensure each top is level and aligned with precision to minimize visibility at the joint.

  • Use Proper Support: If spanning more than three doors, consider adding additional support under the jointed areas to maintain stability and longevity.
