Ikea Spares (Kenn Road BS21)
Expired
194d
- We have quite a few Ikea spares if anyone needs them - they are all leftovers from a kitchen / bedroom refit from about 20 years ago, but have never been used. Various screws, dowels, metal cam locks, lots of "Integral" hinges (not the current ones (but may be compatible) a few kitchen unit wall hanging brackets , a number of corner wall fixing bracket and white plastic covers, oodles of pelmet brackets, a number of soft close buffers, and also 2 black plastic adjustable feet for kitchen units. If you're quick there's also a 930mm high x 600 mm wide x 355 mm deep white Ikea kitchen unit (sizes without doors, which I don't think we have got) and which has seen some limited use as an open fronted freestanding shelf sat on carpet tiles in a heated environment. If you want any "vintage" Ikea fixings not listed, just ask!

200d
- 2 usable batteries for a Site 14.4Volt cordless drill driver. The clutch has gone on the drill but the batteries and charger are still usable. Comes complete with duff drill driver, box, instructions, charger and 2 batteries as originally supplied. Would have taken it back to Screwfix for a refund but they reckon it's out of guarantee! Probably fair comment!

Offcuts of 100 mm XtraTherm insulation (Kenn Road BS21)
Expired
1y
- Anyone into model railways?, if so you’ll know what use this has, or if you’re really keen and a bit of ingenuity, there’s enough here to insulate your loft hatch (think how well is your loft hatch insulated compared to the rest of your roof) - I’ve done ours with it, or maybe you have some other lightweight crafting use for it. Tip - cut it with a long bladed knife rather than saw it cos the dust is frankly annoying - a bit like some of our politicians.
