What is the minimum ceiling height to mount a PAX?

For hinged/no doors, the ceiling height needs to be at least 1cm higher. For sliding doors, it is at least 4cm higher. You need more space for external lighting, depending on its height.

Type of door / Required ceiling height

  • hinged door 201cm / 202cm
  • hinged door 236 cm / 237cm
  • sliding door 201cm / 205cm
  • sliding door 236cm / 240cm
  • no door 201cm / 202cm
  • no door 236cm / 237cm

If you'd like to integrate external lighting, you will need more space than stated to install it. This depends on the height of the lighting.
