Good morning everyone, I am currently planning to get an IKEA Platsa wardrobe, which I want to design space-efficiently for my rather small hallway. My question to you is: How can I design and configure an IKEA PLATSA wardrobe to provide as much storage as possible for jackets, shoes, and other items, while taking up as little floor space as possible? Are there tried and tested combinations of different elements, such as low cabinets with attachments or specific IKEA interior fittings, that you would recommend? What experiences do you have with space-saving solutions within this series, especially for narrow or awkwardly shaped entryways? Thanks for your tips and suggestions!
For designing a space-saving IKEA PLATSA wardrobe, I recommend the following structured approach:
- Accurately measure the hallway and take door swings into account.
- Plan the modules to fit into existing recesses or wall cavities whenever possible.
- Use flexible internal components like adjustable shelves and drawers to make the most of the space.
- Removable baskets are ideal for shoes, as they help prevent dirt from spreading inside the wardrobe.
- Open hook rails save space when mounted above the closed modules.
- Pay attention to the maximum module depth: 35 cm (14 inches) is often ideal to provide sufficient storage without narrowing the hallway.
This way, storage and freedom of movement can be optimally combined.

- Use adjustable interior components like variable shelves and drawers to make flexible use of the space.This is really the key! If you stay flexible during assembly, you can gradually optimize and make adjustments without having to buy new items right away. I built my PLATSA wardrobe so that I can change or add compartments at any time – a real advantage when space is tight and needs change.
In addition, light colors and smart lighting create an airy atmosphere so the hallway doesn’t feel cramped.
