Freddy shows how the frames can be arranged vertically, horizontally or like steps, to then be completed with shelves, wire baskets, clothes rail, drawers and doors. "Even the exterior can be used. You can place hooks there or a clothes rail which is fixed between two frames."

Never received the itemAnonymousI call 2 time, they said that is on the way, but we never received tha item. I don't understand, I need that to pur the Door of closet of the bed mezzanine for my girl.
Not soft closingAnonymousThis is not a soft closing hindge. It is simply dampened. When it catches the door, it shakes it violently before dampening to full closure. It is not a clip-on hindge either, which makes the installation more difficult especially with supplied philips head screws. It is better than the hindge that comes with ENHET cabinets (and is its direct replacement). Yet, it is not good enough.
It only fits IKEA cabinetBernadetteIt only fits IKEA cabinet doors. If used to replace existing hinges, it requires new holes be drilled on cabinets
Good product. Made a customMarvinGood product. Made a custom cabinet with doors and picked these up for the hinges. Easy to install.
Poorly MadeEdI installed these hinges recently on a Uppfora frame to attach Smastad doors. The hinges were difficult to install and could not be adjusted and screws got frozen. I ended up removing the hinges and went to the Ottawa store. The service people could not help but they exchanged the hinges for new ones. I did not want to do the install myself so I got a Task Rabbit Tasker to come and do the installation. It cost me over $100 for this. I have many European style Blum hinges in my kitchen and there were no problems with the installation. Ikea should consider using better quality hinges.

Doesn’t fit for ikea own cabinetGuHad to do some modifications to make it work
Great product - but why customer needs to buy it separately?RaymondThe hinge itself is great. Installation is very easy (as other ikea products do). When the cabinet door close it really close softly - no sound at all.
However, why ikea sells the cabinet doors without door hinges and customer need to buy it separately? It is not supposed to be a product that needs frequent replacement…

Story
The storage that changes with you
Our living space is often limited, and it can be a challenge to find a place for everything. With PLATSA storage system, we wanted to create a simple, changeable storage solution that you can rebuild and add to, build vertically or horizontally, to the side or in between. On top of everything else, the price should be low but the quality should be high. The solution: the right quality in the right place.
"All you need is your hands," says product developer Freddy Kramer while clicking together one PLATSA frame after another. Yes, clicking. The secret is a type of plug called a wedge dowel. Freddy goes on to explain why assembling or taking frames apart easily is an important detail. "People's lives are changing more and more today ─ we move more often, live in smaller spaces and maybe share a home with others at times. That's why our needs don't look the same throughout life."

Love in a white box
For PLATSA to be truly long-lasting, quality was just as important as flexibility and ease of assembling. But improving quality without adding to the price is not easy. "Right quality in the right place," Freddy says, and opens a cabinet door. "Here on the outside of the door, which you see and touch every day, we've used a matt foil with fine texture, while the inside, which is not as exposed, is coated with a simpler base foil." The PLATSA project took a lot of time and commitment. But it also gave results. "Those empty white boxes for the frames might not look like much at first glance, but they’re actually white boxes filled with love,” Freddy says, smiling.
Material
What is steel?
Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
