Hello everyone, I have a question about the Ikea PAX system that has been on my mind for a while: Is it possible to connect or link multiple PAX wardrobes located in different rooms so that they function as a continuous storage space? I don’t only mean visually, but also in terms of usability—for example, whether it’s possible to create access as if they form one connected unit, or if there are practical solutions for such integrated use. I’m especially interested in whether the modular system can be flexibly combined across different rooms, so that instead of having completely separate furniture pieces, there is a seamless storage space that also makes sense in everyday use. Are there any experiences, tips for connection systems, or special constructions? Thanks for your insights!
In summary: The Ikea Pax system is excellent for modular, connected storage solutions within a single room; however, the product specifications are not designed for mechanically securing Pax cabinets across multiple separate rooms.
If you want to achieve a uniform appearance, it is recommended to use identical fronts and colors, as well as suitable trims or paneling to minimize visible transitions.
Physically connecting two rows of cabinets across room boundaries requires custom adjustments, especially regarding structural conditions and floor level differences. Important considerations include:
- Adjustable furniture feet for height leveling
- Flexible connectors or detachable fastenings
- Use of spacer plates or compensating materials
Ultimately, accessibility, functionality, and structural integrity should always be the priority.

Thank you all for the helpful and detailed contributions! I now have a much clearer understanding of how to carry out my project and what to pay attention to. In particular, the advice on flexible connection solutions and the importance of the ground conditions is very useful to me.
I will start by accurately measuring the room dimensions and ground conditions, then try to create a stable and functional solution using a combination of precisely fitting PAX elements and custom connectors or leveling parts.
Thanks again for your support!
