Stopping Dresser Drawers Falling
There are several ways to secure the cabinet so that it will not fall over. One way is to securely attach a cord to the wall and to the back of the dresser. Make sure you screw a strong hook into a stud and not just into the drywall. A screw will easily pull out of the drywall. The same goes for the back of the dresser.
Some people like to use L brackets which work really well. The cabinet cannot be moved at all once installed.
Another approach is to use long screws through the backboard of the dresser into the wall. Again make sure the screws are screwed into the studs and not just into the drywall. Most people will use a stud finder to help them locate the studs behind the drywall. Usually, they run vertically up the wall.
