Wardrobe shelving

Can I add shelves to my IKEA wardrobe?

Many of our shelving units for wardrobes are suggested combinations. You get shelves, baskets and clothes rails of different widths and heights. This gives you a good starting point when planning your own wardrobe. But, if none of our ready-made combinations fit your ideal setup, you can create your own combinations. That way, you can adapt the shelving specifically to your space. 

Combine sections from the same series to create a frame for your wardrobe. Then you can attach shelves, baskets, and clothes rails to fit your needs. For instance, the BOAXEL wall-mounted storage system is easy to mount according to your needs. The interiors are effortlessly clicked onto, or removed from, the brackets. This makes it possible to customise, change or move your solution quickly whenever necessary.

If you can’t find the sections you want for the inside of your wardrobe, you can always add some additional free-floating shelves and build your own shelving. And why not combine it with clever storage boxes for a neat and organised look?

Mounting advice

Remember that some shelving units for wardrobes need to be fixed to the wall. And when you do so, be aware that different wall materials can support different loads of weight. And different wall materials also require different types of fixing devices.

Since the fixing devices suitable for the walls in your home vary, they are sold separately at IKEA. If you are uncertain about what fixing device to use, don't hesitate to contact your local IKEA store.
