Dimensions for 6-Drawer Hemnes Unit
Ikea Hemnes 6 drawer chest drawer rails question
Malm 6 drawer dresser vs Hemnes 8 drawer dresser
Unconditional love: Spent 6 hours assembling this dresser from IKEA for my daughter. I may never be able to move again.

Infuriatingly, the measurements of the actual body of the chest of drawers (or the overhang of the 108 cm top) are nowhere to be found on the website or in the instructions manual. Has anyone got one at home that they could measure? Got a tricky spot to fit it into, and knowing how much space it takes up at the bottom is crucial.

Thanks so much for your help.
Hi,
I'm building a Hemnes 6 drawer chest but am confused about the drawer slideds.
The parts list has part 10085261 with 5 sets of 4 rails, 2 each for the frame and drawers. Each drawer pair has one rail with the new black tab for the new lock mechanism, and a regular drawer rail without the tab.
Then there is also part 10100257 with is a pair of LR drawer rails which both have the tab. The problem is that the instructions never mention this set of rails again. Are they meant for a specific drawer?
My initial thought is that they are meant for the small drawers at the top, but those don't use the locking mechanism, and the instructions also show that drawer being inserted with the black tab on the right side next to the divider where there is no lock mechanism.
This is the only video I could find of anyone assembling it and there's no mention of this pair of rails. https://youtu.be/75yUxL06Di4
