My family think I am a carpenter now.. Put together 350cm frames and 2 sliding doors and all the interiors with help of these videos.. Cannot thank you enough.. By the way I have named you Pax.. My friend.. From a very grateful person.. Actually saved me 1500 euros.. As had a quote from local fitter.. Outrageous

Thank you for your amazing series of videos for assembly of PAX wardrobes with Hasvik sliding doors and soft closing devices. I found them all so useful when I assembled these products, I honestly doubt I would have succeeded with just the IKEA instruction books.

Sooo I found this incredibly helpful. My husband and i bought sliding door wardrobes but not from IKEA, and the instructions are absolutely maddening! We couldn't make heads or tails, and niether could our neighbours or friends. It was just very messed up. We just used your video as an assisting manual and compared all the pieces. It seems to be less overwhelming so far. 😅❤️ Thank you for making this video!

I just want to thank you so much. I built my entire 3 door PAX wardrobe from start to finish watching your videos. Following your videos made it so much easier and allowed me to put everything together in the quarter of the time it would normally take me. Ikea really ought to get you to do official how-to videos for all their furniture! You just made it so much easier and easier to understand than their paper instructions. Many many thanks. Ps. Please forgive me but I’m putting this comment on all the videos I followed and found useful. Thanks again.

Hello! Any suggestions and/or videos on how to deal with HVAC vents. In order to maximize our closet space, the potential design would involve covering the only vent in closet. Our closet is connected to master bath and there’s another vent in the bathroom. We are a little concerned with the closet potentially getting cold and/or moisture build up. Can the PAX bottom be cut and vent system extended into unit?

I finished one frame thanx to your directions. However, I constructed it in the closet (because a finished unit would have a difficult time bringing into the closet due to its 93 inch height and turning the corner to get it in) but I now have no space in the closet with the 1st frame to complete another. I wonder how difficult it would be if Ikea made the frames shorter and got to the 93inch height with an addition the way they construct the Billy.

@justintang7936 4 жыл бұрын

Hi there, thanks for this great video. I have a quick question for you: although the base panel should be installed in the third holes from the bottom in the side panels but would it also fit in the bottom set of holes in the side panels (e.g. if we wanted the wardrobe to rest flat on a self-made support platform rather than install the IKEA base board between the bottom and third holes)? I know that is not how it is meant to be installed but the bottom holes look to have the same spacing as the third holes from the bottom so I think it might be possible?

@PPFlatPack 4 жыл бұрын

I think it will work. Question is how the doors will line up because if I understand right by placing a panel on both sides (top and bottom) will be in the first line that will do about 8-10cm gap between the top of the wardrobe and door. All that said it is possible to shorten Ikea pax wardrobe without adjusting doors and video how to do that will be out within 2 weeks.

@justintang7936 4 жыл бұрын

@@PPFlatPack Thanks so much, I was planning on having doors custom made (so all the framing would be IKEA but you wouldn't see any of it because it would be behind custom-made doors). You are right that the standard IKEA doors will be too small and the backing board will also be to small so I'll have to find a solution for that too! Really appreciate your posts - thank you! 😀

I so wished I had watched this before I hired 2 guys to put up 3 of them attached. They left out parts, put parts in upside down! and I think I have to take it apart and start all over. Your videos are swell! I have a floor that slants, any suggestions for adding to the uneveness to level the cabinets? The 2 guys shoved a few small pieces of wood under the connecting walls and I think it is not safe.

@PPFlatPack 2 жыл бұрын

You right there is to many cowboys out there I did few repairs similar to your case. Regarding slanting floor - first cabinets have to be done correctly if the flor is very bad I usually fix the wardrobes to the wall or adjust the legs and doors but sometime you can fix this problem with small plastic spacers under the wardrobe. You can see how this is done here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nLqmn9Cer9rXZ5s.html

@PPFlatPack 6 ай бұрын

The back panel holds all frame together. Can do without but have to attach to the wall. Still have to be carful because it can colapse easily. I would sugdest to attach the back.

@AngrySilence 6 ай бұрын

@@PPFlatPack I understand. But what if I attach only the lower half of the panel? I'm guessing that would be significantly more stable than having no panel at all. Also, I'm not sure if I really need to anchor the 2 metre tall, 35 cm deep wardrobe. It should be stable enough, especially with all the weight of the clothes inside. I could be wrong though.

How high are the bottom(plinth) pieces? My ceiling height is 234 cm. Is there a way I can fit IKEA PAX 236cm high wardrobe in the space? I mean has anyone attempted to cut the bottom(plinth) pieces to slightly lower the height of the wardrobe? Is this even possible? The other option might be to remove the carpet and underlay but I'm not sure that will give me 3cms.

I don't even install them. I teach tolerancing in what I do. Technically the feel are inadequate for most types of misalignment. Even if they worked, the load would be concentrated and would creep due to the viscoelastic nature of particle board. Just shim if needed around the parameter.
