This connector facilitates the flush mounting of multiple Original Skadis boards and all of my DIY IKEA SKADIS Boards. It is specifically designed for the white Original Skadis board and any variants with a thickness of 5.0 to 5.1 mm. The connector is intended for use when both boards are already mounted on the wall, either with the original mounts or third-party wall mounts.

Here are the key functions of the connector:

- Alignment and Stability: The connector ensures that one board doesn't become slightly recessed due to friction between the two boards.

- Reinforcement: It stiffens the center of the board, which typically lacks a mounting point to the wall.

- Tilt Prevention: If you followed IKEA's instructions, the bottom of the board is not mounted to the wall. Since the lower board has mounting points at the top, the connector helps to prevent the top board from tilting, albeit to a limited extent.

Installation

There are two sizes of connectors available. The taller connectors are designed for the sides of the board where the holes are further apart. The print profile includes two short and two long connectors, which is an ideal combination for the largest Skadis boards. However, feel free to mix and match according to your needs. Ensure you properly remove the supports; otherwise, the gap between the connector and the hooks may be incorrect and you will have a hard time installing the connector. You will need to apply some force to push the connector down, which is completely normal. If you have trouble seating the connector, use a plastic tool (e.g. a printed bed scraper) to help push it into place. Avoid using hard objects, as they might scratch your board. Please be careful not to hurt yourself while doing this.
