How to Remove IKEA White Fasteners from Furniture for Disassembly

Hopefully this can enlighten someone somewhere before they throw their mis-assembled Hemnes Chest against the wall out of frustration.

Thank you so much for this video. My son and I were trying to figure out how to take out one of those white things and I nearly did throw it against the wall out of frustration!! This video saved us!

Thank you. I spent so long trying to find a way to take them out and it took no time with your method.

This was so helpful! Thank you! It didn’t work at first with the white masking tape and so i put some double sided tape on a flat screwdriver and it worked as a charm.
Many thanks from France.

No tape in the world would be strong enough to get my ikea cam locks out 🙄 I had to use brute force screws and pliers
