Hello everyone, I plan to assemble an Ikea Pax wardrobe entirely by myself without professional help, as I want to save on those costs and enjoy doing it on my own. I have a question: Are there any specific tips or tricks for assembling the Pax system that make the process significantly easier or help avoid common pitfalls? I do have some experience with furniture assembly, but the Pax system seems to be on a different level due to its size and complexity. It would be great if you could share practical advice that goes beyond the included instructions. For example, how to best handle the heavy parts, how to correctly adjust the wardrobe components, and if there are particular sequences or tools that are especially useful. Thanks in advance!

I’m particularly worried about accurately aligning the doors, which in the case of Pax are a mix of glass and wood.I totally understand! I was also concerned about the glass-wood combination. My tip was to first fix the bottom hinges when hanging the doors, then hang the top hinges without fully tightening them. This way, I could carefully adjust the door position with millimeter precision before tightening everything. And definitely take several breaks! 🙂
Also, for heavy doors, you really need strong, steady hands to install them—even with two people, it can be quite tricky. But you can definitely do it, keep at it!
