ᐅ Is it possible to raise or extend Ikea Pax wardrobes?

Hello Ikea fans,

I need a PAX wardrobe for my entrance hall and have a ceiling height of 3.40 m (11 ft). Is there a way to extend the wardrobe upwards?

Thanks and best regards
Steph

Hello, there used to be Pax wall cabinets, but that won’t help you. You can put a Faktum base cabinet on top (available in your area only until April?).

Hi Steph,

if you’re handy and have a carpenter who can make precise cuts, get a second Pax and cut it to the missing length. If you use the 236cm (93 inches) high Pax, get a 201cm (79 inches) one as well and cut it in half. Leave out the base and the bottom panel. Then attach the top section from the inside using brackets or a strip. It gets a bit more complicated with the doors because you’ll need to redrill the hinge holes. This method has always worked for me.

Best regards, Herr rossi

Thank you for the great ideas! 🙂
