Hello everyone,
I am currently planning a new wardrobe system and considering buying an Ikea Pax wardrobe. I am particularly interested in the question: Which Ikea Pax wardrobe types are especially space-saving when you want to maximize storage capacity in smaller or narrow rooms using as little floor space as possible?
I imagine that, for example, narrow models or those with multiple levels could be advantageous, but I am unsure which options offer the best combination of space efficiency and capacity. Maybe there are door types, interior fittings, or specific module types that are especially helpful in this regard?
I am really looking forward to your experiences and opinions on this topic!

Ikea offers PAX wardrobes with a depth of 35cm (14 inches), which makes them much less space-consuming.Thanks, I actually wasn’t aware of the 35cm (14 inches) depth option. Are there any limitations with the interior fittings (like clothing rods) for that depth? I’m asking because I plan to hang shirts and jackets long-term, which need some space.
Would it be better to go for a deeper wardrobe, or are there interior fittings specially designed for the 35cm (14 inches) depth?

If you want to hang shirts and jackets, wardrobes with a depth of 58cm (23 inches) work better but offer less space-saving.
In small apartments, I often use a combination of narrow cabinets (50cm (20 inches) wide) and module-specific shelves with drawers. This saves space while keeping things organized.
Sliding doors are truly a game changer in narrow or tight spaces. This way, you don’t need to keep an area in front of the cabinet free.
