Benny began brainstorming solutions with his colleagues: what if the sides already were attached to the back when the wardrobe is delivered – so it can be mounted upright and in the right place from the beginning. The team’s solution was an innovative hinge which makes it possible to put the pieces together in the production. “Once home, you open your wardrobe like a book and click everything in place. The beauty is that you just as easily can click the frame apart if you have to move the wardrobe.”

The foldable construction allows you to mount the frame in the correct space from the beginning, avoiding heavy lifting to move the piece of furniture once it´s assembled.
The frame is mounted upright and from the front, so you manage with less floor space and lower ceiling height when you put together your wardrobe.
Comes with two different fittings so that you can attach it securely to the wall with or without a skirting board in between the frame and the wall.
You can always bring the frame with you when you move or pass it on to someone else, since it’s so easy to assemble, disassemble and reassemble.
The robust and sturdy construction makes it possible to disassemble and move the wardrobe in your home home or to a new home.
Just follow the simple instructions to disassemble your PAX wardrobe frame in a secure way, to make sure that it will come to use for even longer.
If you want to organise inside you can complement with interior organisers from the KOMPLEMENT series.
Perfect where space is limited since the frame is narrow.
Adjustable feet make it possible to compensate any irregularities in the floor.

Story
Unfold your PAX wardrobe
Sometimes it can actually be OK to eavesdrop. One of our most experienced innovators overheard some colleagues talking about how tricky it can be to assemble a PAX wardrobe. It immediately triggered his creativity. How do you make it easier and faster to assemble?
“It was above all one problem with our earlier version of the PAX frame,” says Benny Andersson, a long-time technician at IKEA. “Assembling it upright was way too complicated. But assembling it and then placing it upright demanded a ceiling height higher than the wardrobe, which not everyone has.”
Open it like a book
Quick assembly with the right instructions
With the new construction, Benny and the team managed to halve the assembly time for one PAX frame. But they were still not satisfied. “We are specialists within our field, and it was valuable to bring in colleagues with different backgrounds to help out with the assembly tests. It made it possible to improve the assembly instructions further and reduce the time even more.” So, what started with an eavesdropping Benny ended with a PAX frame that can be assembled both faster and simpler. “To succeed with a project like this, all team members have to challenge and motivate each other. Our mission is to work in headwinds, and just like on a football pitch, everyone contributes to the end result.”
Function solution
The difficult art of simplifying
We like it simple but are happy to take on difficult tasks. That’s how we made it easier to assemble PAX wardrobe. The foldable construction allows you to mount the frame directly where you want it to avoid having to move the assembled furniture – and you add the sliding doors step by step, without heavy lifting and without problems. The storage solution is also easy to disassemble and reassemble, so you can bring it when moving and benefit from your PAX even longer.
