How to design your perfect PAX wardrobe
Give clothes and accessories their forever home in a customised PAX wardrobe. With lots of options, the PAX storage system lets you design a wardrobe that’s perfect for your space and storage needs. Create your solution by choosing frames, doors, knobs and interior organisers in our PAX planner. Here are 6 easy steps to get you started.
1. Choose your frames
First of all, work out how much space you have for your wardrobe. Measure from floor to ceiling and wall to wall – don’t forget to take the skirting board into account!
Our frames come in different sizes for all kinds of spaces. There are three widths, two heights and two depths, plus an add-on frame that makes the most of an unused corner. Four easily coordinated colours – white, white stained oak effect, dark grey and grey-beige – complete your options, giving you lots of possibilities to customise your wardrobe.
Tip: You also need to add on 1cm for hinged doors and 4cm for sliding doors. And if you assemble your PAX frame upright, make sure you have at least 1cm of free space above it.

Its no secret around here that we love ourselves a little PAX. And with the new year upon us and so many people working on getting and staying organized, Ive had a lot of reader questions and emails lately about the Ikea PAX units that we installed in our old house. The main issue seems to be how to configure them! What exactly to use and how to man it all fit into your own space.
If youve been following for a while, you may know that we installed Ikea PAX wardrobes in all of the closets at our old house even in our boys rooms. In fact, with losing one of our closets to the bathroom renovation that weve just begun in our new house, weve decided to tear out the other closet and go to an Ikea PAX enhet in our new mästare bedroom as well. Ill be sharing the details on that project really soon.
And while I havent worked with any other closet organizing systems, inom have to say that the inom dont know if many other systems have the same number and variety of organizers available as Ikea does with the PAX struktur. Add in the affordability of Ikea in general combined with the ease of tillgång with online ordering and I personally place PAX at number one. Once
How We Organized Our Ikea Pax Closets
It feels like a miracle, but we’ve gone from absolutely zero closet space in our bedroom (when we moved in we just had dressers) to having just as much space as our last house’s big walk-in closet! We’ve previously covered how we installed Ikea Pax wardrobes and how we made them look built-in, so today we’re throwing open every door & drawer to show you how we’ve organized them. If you’re looking for tips to maximize your storage & specific products that can make it feel more customized, this is the post for you.
It should be said upfront that neither of us have what we’d call a large amount of clothing (although I’ve always had a thing for shoes and jewelry, so there’s still plenty of that going on). You can read all of my tips for curating a minimal closet here – but I’ve actually been able to expand mine a bit lately, thanks to all of the storage we’ve added to our bedroom over the last 3 years.
Since our house is in a mostly-finished phase and we’re spending a lot less on home renos than we have for the last 15 years, I’ve been h
