EvisarHello everyone,
I am currently looking into upgrading my Ikea Pax wardrobe and realized that I might want to change the door handles to achieve a more personalized design. My question is: Are there door handles in different designs—varying in shape, material, or color—officially offered by Ikea for the Pax series? Or is the selection relatively limited, so you have to rely on third-party suppliers if you are looking for a specific handle style? I look forward to your insights and recommendations, especially regarding compatibility with different handles on Pax doors. Thanks in advance!

Hello Evisar,
I completely understand your question, as I recently wanted to replace the handles on my Pax doors to refresh their appearance. First of all: Ikea does offer a limited selection of door handles for Pax, mostly simple, straight designs made of aluminum or plastic, usually matte or high-gloss. A major drawback is that the handles are often sold as part of a set with the doors, so finding replacements afterward is quite restricted.
If you’re specifically looking for different styles, such as leather handles, round wooden knobs, or vintage metal handles, you probably won’t find much at Ikea. My advice: When looking at third-party suppliers, pay attention to the screw hole measurements (usually 128 mm (5 inches) center-to-center for Pax doors) and make sure the handles are sturdy enough. Also, installation is generally straightforward, but you might need to modify the holes slightly if the measurements don’t match perfectly.
What does your current wardrobe look like – do you know what type of door fronts and handles you have? This can be important to consider when evaluating suitable alternatives.
