IKEA furniture assembly in Rose Bay

Rose Bay 2029's boutique apartments along New South Head Road have lift dimensions from another era — what fits a modern apartment lift won't necessarily fit Rose Bay's 1990s boutique blocks. We measure twice before we book.

Rose Bay context

What ikea furniture assembly looks like in Rose Bay

We've had IKEA orders show up to a Rose Bay apartment building only to discover the lift won't take a 200cm PAX side panel — the building manager points at the freight lift and that doesn't fit either. Now we measure the lift on the quote visit. The federation homes north of the bay are a different problem: lath-and-plaster walls and timber frame doorways, narrow corner turns from hall to bedroom. We assemble in place where access doesn't permit otherwise. Wall fixing into the original timber stud is reliable; into 1980s fibre-cement stud-walls used in some flats, much less so.

Recent Rose Bay job

Recent: 200cm PAX in a New South Head Road boutique apartment. Lift wouldn't take the side panel; we hand-carried sides up four flights via the fire-stair, assembled in place, anchored to the brick external wall with chemical anchors. Four hours plus the carry-up time.

Our process — same standard, every booking

2
Build and align
Assembled to spec, levelled, and shimmed where Bondi floors are out (they always are).
3
Anchor and tidy
Wall-fixed for tip safety; flatpack cardboard broken down and removed.
