Clothes rails that fit just right

Hanging storage is the foundation of your wardrobe. It helps to keep bulky things like dresses, blouses, jackets and coats tidy and wrinkle-free as well as easy to access.

Maximise the space with shelves

Adjustable shelves can go a long way to help make the most of the interior of your PAX closet. Arrange them at different heights to tailor the space for everything from bulky cardigans and handbags to cotton shirts and pyjamas.

Keep things together in drawers

Adding KOMPLEMENT soft-closing drawers into your wardrobe fires up the storage possibilities for larger things that like to be folded, like knitwear, jeans, and t-shirts. If you need your clothes to have more air circulating around them, get to know our mesh baskets. They add depth and texture to the overall look too.

Organise small items with boxes

Keeping track of those smaller items of clothing is a lot easier when they are stored in manageable containers.

Make your space work harder with frame dividers

Frame dividers help you make smart use of space if you don’t have lots of long items to hang up, by putting leftover space at the bottom of the wardrobe to good use.

Give trousers their own hangers

While some trousers – jeans for one – are happy folded in a drawer or on a shelf, others much prefer to be hung. Which is why our pull-out trouser hangers were invented!

By helping trousers retain their shape, pull-out trouser hangers reduce the need for time-consuming ironing. Coming in a range of sizes to fit all our different wardrobe frames, each hanger has evenly divided rails for a clear overview of your trousers, making outfit choices a bit easier. The smooth-running rail has a pull-out stop, giving it a solid, built-in feeling.

Shoes shelves to keep your best shoes shining

Because there’s more than one way to organise your shoes, we have more than one KOMPLEMENT organiser to do it.

Optimise your wardrobe with SKUBB boxes

Got the rails, shelves, pull-out hangers and drawers sorted but still got leftover space? Add some SKUBB storage.
