TV bench with Ikea's cover panel?
1. Is it possible to attach 2 pieces of 220 x 60 cover panels (Ikea's) to the back of a TV bench? See picture of the TV bench.
2. Are there any risks?
3. Tips for other alternatives?
The idea is for it to be a type of wall for a sleeping alcove. Today it is a blackout curtain, and I would preferably not want to screw the wall.
The wall should almost reach the ceiling.
Thanks in advance 😊

Would it be possible, in addition to screwing in the back of the TV stand, to also screw "fixed feet on the actual board" that protrude in one or both directions?
They could perhaps protrude about 10 cm in both directions. If you understand what I mean.

Yes, I think so. Can you draw a picture of how you're thinking so I understand correctly?Bono_R said:
There might be some good drawing program for Mac, but I think the feet are like an L and four for each board. Attach the boards to the TV stand and let them rest on the floor, then screw on the L supports "feet." Then you can drill through one foot and also the board and then screw into the corresponding foot on the other side of the board so that it should hold. If you can also place the bed against the board, you'll get a little extra support.
It might be good to have two people "during the building time" to get a little holding help.

What kind of ceiling do you have?
A 2.2m high panel will be difficult to stabilize with small feet.
The absolute easiest solution is to attach the panel to the ceiling using some L-shaped metal piece.
Like an angle iron -

If there is a blackout curtain today, the screw holes for it should be reusable.

Ikea has screen walls based on that principle of "fötter" here: https://www.ikea.com/se/sv/cat/skaermvaeggar-46080/B Burthen said:
There are, of course, different types of screen walls commonly used to divide office spaces into different workstations. However, they usually come with a high price tag, but Ikea has some variants.
