Abstract

An arrangement for tipping over prevention of a furniture (1) such as a chest of drawers or a cabinet comprising at least one drawer. The arrangement comprises a bar (300) and an attachment adapted to anchor the furniture (1) to a wall (W). The attachment comprises a guiding bracket (100) and an anchoring bracket (200) adapted to be movable between a first position and a second position in view of the guiding bracket (100). The anchoring bracket (200) has an anchoring portion (206) adapted to anchor the furniture (1) to a wall (W). The bar (300) is movable between a restriction position and a clearance position when acted upon by the anchoring bracket (200). When the anchoring bracket (200) is moved from the first position to the second position a wedge shaped support member (204) forces a projection (302) of the bar (300) to move along the wedge shaped support member (204) thereby moving the bar (300) from the restriction position to the clearance position, in which clearance position the drawer (4) is allowed to be pushed or pulled past a stop member (301) of the bar (300).
