Hello everyone,
I have a detailed question regarding interior lighting for Ikea Pax wardrobes: Are there LED lights specifically designed for the interiors of Ikea Pax systems? I am particularly interested in solutions tailored to the internal dimensions and mounting options of the Pax wardrobes. I’m looking for something that’s easy to install, ideally with an integrated power supply or battery, and provides sufficient brightness to clearly illuminate even the back corners.
Has anyone had experience with this or can recommend suitable products that are precisely designed for Ikea Pax interiors?
Thanks in advance for your support!

Regarding the dimensions: Most LEDs for Pax are designed modularly. For large cabinets like yours with a width of 100cm (39 inches), multiple LED strips or spotlights are used, which can be connected in series or parallel.
Technical differences:
- Battery-powered lights are convenient, but their runtime is usually limited to a few hours.
- Mains-powered solutions provide continuous and brighter lighting but require cable management.
Specific products for PAX offer flexible connection cables that can be neatly routed inside the cabinet.
For a 100cm (39 inches) width, I recommend a modular system that can be customized individually, preferably mains-powered for permanent lighting.

I also tend to prefer mains power because of the brightness and duration. Are there common mistakes to watch out for when installing the wiring? What should I pay attention to when laying the cables, especially to avoid impacting the appearance inside the cabinet?

Key points for wiring installation:
- Avoid cable extensions that are simply connected without proper connectors – this can cause short circuits.
- Use cable ducts or terminal blocks to route cables neatly and securely.
- Make sure no cables are mechanically pinched, especially when cabinet doors are closed.
- Mount power supplies in easily accessible locations, preferably on the outside or the upper part of the cabinet.
Summary:
- Keep it clearly organized
- Ensure secure fastening
- Do not leave any exposed cable ends
- Prioritize safety over aesthetic appearance
If you follow these guidelines, you can install durable and safe lighting.
