ᐅ Ikea Pax Anstad sliding door does not close properly.

Hello,

unfortunately, I have a small issue with my second set of Anstad sliding doors...

When I slide both doors fully to the left, the rear door doesn’t stay completely to the left but moves slightly back to the right. Apparently, the rear door doesn’t lock at the top when in the left position. For example, I can’t pull out the drawers in the right cabinet because the rear door shifts back and gets in the way. I have to push it back to the left and hold it there, otherwise it moves to the right again.

What did I do wrong? Unfortunately, it’s hard to see clearly at the top because the front door with the large angle blocks the view.

Thank you very much for your help!!!!! I hope it’s nothing serious. I was so close... 🙁

You could use a stopper, but I think that wouldn’t be ideal. I would recommend taking off the front door to have a proper look at everything. Maybe it’s just a missing screw or something, which is why it’s not catching properly.

Hello Melissa,

I have looked, tried, screwed, attempted, tried again,...
Tomorrow, a field service representative from IKEA will come and take a look (I’m from Austria 😉 ). I’m curious... I didn’t even know IKEA had such field service representatives.

Best regards,
Georg

Hello georg75,

I have exactly the same problem with my Ånstad sliding doors.
Have you been able to fix the issue? If so, how?

Best regards

You probably both live in Berlin and have uneven floors.
This means the wardrobe tilts to the right, causing the door to keep closing on its own to the right.
This needs to be taken into account during assembly (level the wardrobe with a spirit level by placing wooden shims underneath).
Unfortunately, this cannot be fixed after assembly.
