Hello dear IKEA fans,

I hope you can help me here, as I haven’t been able to get any assistance from the hotline.

I want to buy a Pax sliding door wardrobe, the model with a height of 236 cm (7 ft 9 in).

According to the assembly instructions, the room should be 240 cm (7 ft 10 in) or taller.

Unfortunately, at the lowest point I only have 238.5 cm (7 ft 10 in) and at the highest just under 240 cm (7 ft 10 in).

The carcass can also be assembled standing up, so in that regard it should be possible. But will the sliding doors still be able to be hung then?? 😕 😕 That’s my big problem!!!!

Thank you very much for your help!

If you can remove the stop on the top right and left (as far as I know, it is screwed in), there should be nothing preventing it.

That would be great. Please let us know if it worked.

Best regards, Maverick1854

Only from the side... I don’t have any other experiences, so I’ll refrain from commenting and so on... 😀

During my last visit to Ikea, I measured the Pax wardrobe with sliding doors using a laser measuring device.
Highest point: 237.5 cm (93.5 inches)

That’s why I have now purchased the wardrobe frame and am waiting for the sliding doors to be back in stock.
Based on the dimensions alone, it should fit. But as mentioned before, the doors can only be installed by sliding them in from the side.

As soon as I have the sliding doors and they are installed on the wardrobe, I will update you again!

Thank you, Bruno,
that would be really great.

What ceiling height do you have?

Best regards,
Michael

238.5cm (94 inches) at the lowest point, so there should still be 1cm (0.4 inches) of air!

Hello Bruno,
is there any news about the Pax fronts? Have you already assembled your cabinets?
Best regards
