Heavy furniture assembly — done safely, done right.
Large wardrobes, heavy bed frames, and modular storage systems are two-person jobs. Don't risk injury or damage to your home — let our trained team handle it with the right tools and the right technique.
Safety note: A full-height IKEA PAX wardrobe weighs up to 120kg. Attempting solo assembly risks injury, damaged panels, and an unstable structure. We bring a two-person team as standard for heavy items.
Two-Person Teams
Heavy items require two people. We always send the right team for the job.
Proper Tools
Professional-grade tools for every job. No stripped screws, no damaged panels.
Wall-Anchored & Safe
Tall furniture anchored to walls where required for safety and stability.
Heavy flat-pack furniture is a serious safety risk when assembled alone.
Large wardrobes, tall bookcases, and heavy bed frames are not designed for solo assembly. The panels are heavy, the structures are unstable until fully assembled, and the risk of injury — or damage to your home — is significant.
Every year, thousands of people are injured attempting to assemble heavy furniture alone. Furniture that is incorrectly assembled — or not wall-anchored where required — is also a tip-over hazard, particularly in homes with children.
We bring a two-person team, professional tools, and the experience to assemble heavy items safely, correctly, and quickly.

Customer reviews
"I had three full-height PAX wardrobes to build. There was no way I could have done it alone. Two guys came, built everything in a few hours, and wall-anchored the lot. Brilliant."Graham, Leeds — 5/5
"I tried to build my ottoman bed frame myself and gave up. Called Flat Pack Amigos and two guys had it done in under an hour. Should have called them first."Claire, Manchester — 5/5
"We have young children so I wanted the wardrobes properly wall-anchored. They did it all correctly and I have complete peace of mind. Highly recommend."Helen, Cheshire — 5/5
Frequently asked questions
How do you decide if a two-person team is needed?
We assess this when you send your item details. For full-height wardrobes, large bed frames, heavy storage systems, and similar items, we always send two assemblers as standard. There is no extra charge for this — it is included in the fixed price quote.
Do you wall-anchor tall furniture?
Yes — for tall furniture such as full-height wardrobes and tall bookcases, we wall-anchor as standard where the manufacturer recommends it. We will advise if wall anchoring is required for your specific items.
What if I live in a flat and can't drill into walls?
Let us know when you request your quote. We can advise on alternative stabilisation methods and will work within your property's constraints.
Can you move heavy furniture between rooms?
Yes — we offer a room-to-room move service for assembled furniture that needs repositioning. We dismantle where necessary, move safely, and reassemble. Ask for details when requesting your quote.
