In the video I think there are 3 "pilot" holes behind the door for you to start. I was at the store and don't see any dimples.

If you have to drill the holes yourself how do you determine where to drill the same on each drawer and in different door sizes?

Nope, no holes- after all, people want their handles in all kinds of places. It's not that hard. You just measure how far down from the top and in from one side you want them and then do it the same on all.

Hi,

I am with Kelly on this one - there are so many different choices when it comes to door hardware - some go with what Ikea offers and some go elsewhere - you can go with a single knob or any other pull you can find and can put it anywhere on the door that you desire.

Ikea sells a nifty tool to help drill the holes for the pulls of your choice.

find it here: IKEA | Bookcases | BESTÅ/INREDA system | FIXA | Drill template
