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."

Product details
You can organise the inside with interiors from the HJÄLPA series – and for the exterior there are smart solutions in the LÄTTHET series.
You can easily create a storage solution that fits your needs and your space by combining frames in different heights and depths.
The frame is easy to install by just clicking it together, no tools are needed.
You can easily attach several PLATSA frames to each other using the included clips. They are easy to mount and remove without using tools, and you avoid visible screw holes on the outside.
Perfect where space is limited since the frame is narrow.
The storage solution is easy to assemble, disassemble and reassemble if you want to adapt it, bring it with you when you move or pass it on to someone else so it can stay in use much longer.

Nice designAnonymous reviewerWe had to find the space to fit them up, make sure, you have enough room.
Amazing Wardrobe!Anonymous reviewerAmazing wardrobe and such a great price! Love that you can build your own with so many different pieces/colours. Definitely recommend!
Great product Anonymous reviewerLove the product, easy to assemble. Would have given it 5 stars if it came with a base to lift it of the ground. It comes with feet which are ideal on a flat surface, but even on full height still wouldn't open on a carpeting. I've had to build a base to fit the units on
Great unitAnonymous reviewerVery well made and easy to put together. Fixes well with other platsa units. I’ve used them for open plan wardrobes in my children’s bedrooms.
Not good Anonymous reviewerReally bad
Great storage Anonymous reviewerCustomised the shelf spacing to fit my requirements. Set of 4 fits all my storage needs. All neat and tidy with soft close doors.
Easy to buildAnonymous reviewerInstructions very straight forward, no drill required, really great quality, easy to go together. Would have liked a bit more to play with on the feet adjusters
Platsa 80cm wardrobe frame Anonymous reviewerHorrendous design! Need a space about 2 to 3 times the size of the wardrobe to slide all the parts into place, sides and back just chip as trying to assemble. Was really looking forward to getting this as looks great but not worth the hassle what so ever, managed to assemble but loads of chips in wood, won’t be surprised if it needs replacing in a couple months!!
Versatile and easy to constructAnonymous reviewerWe found these easy to construct and they have provided lots of versatile storage in our bedroom.
They were relatively easy to join together though we did the first one wrong but were able to put it right.
Very impressed with the range of accessories, shelves, doors, handles, shoe racks etc.
Good value for money.
It does what it saysAnonymous reviewerIt does what it says on the tin BUT. The panels are hollow so you can only hang a trouser hanger from a shelf by first fixing a batten. The door hinges conflict with the hanging rail which lowers it, I bought conventional brackets for clothes rail. Also no thin drawers for jewellery within the doors like PAX ( has good wire drawers) and a different size to PAX so you can’t interchange fittings. Can be assembled without tools though, need a rubber mallet, and a good bit of kit allowing for the problems. Hinge adjustment seems much easier than PAX.
Quick delivery. Easy to assembleAnonymous reviewerQuick delivery. Easy to assemble and seems to be of sturdy construction.
Not the quality I expect from IKEAAnonymous reviewerDisappointed with the product, as did not assemble well, gap at the back on small frame, shelf had not been laminated correctly and flimsy panels.
excellentAnonymous reviewerGood quality very sturdy way to assemble
FlimsyAnonymous reviewerThe boards are made like honeycombed & not built to last. Quite expensive so I returned them for refund. They looked nice but did not suit our purposes.
Perfect for what was wantedAnonymous reviewervery easy to put together and is smart looking.
Anonymous reviewerEasy to construct. Sandval doors make it look very expensive, and the choice of shelf and hanger rail placements give it individuality.
Just what we neededAnonymous reviewerThe quality is very good for flat pack type furniture, the assembly has been very well designed and is very easy to put together. The only issue we had was a slight twist in one of the frames when it was assembled and we could not get the twist out but fortunately it was only minor and did not cause any significant issues.

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."
Take apart and rebuild
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 constructed board?
We use constructed boards when manufacturing many of our pieces of furniture, such as tables and wardrobes. They are light yet still stable and strong. Each board has a frame made of chipboard, fibreboard or solid wood, while the inside is a honeycomb filling structure made of mostly recycled paper, which is extra durable thanks to its special construction. The board is then covered with a protective paint, foil or veneer depending on the style wanted.
