Hello everyone,

I have two older Pax DRAMMEN wardrobe doors, 229cm (90 inches) tall, and I want to attach them to my new Pax frame. Unfortunately, I am missing some hinge parts, so after asking an IKEA sales assistant, I bought two sets of Komplement hinges.

It seems there are some differences: the new sets include four hinges per door, but my doors only have three. Additionally, the hinge design has been completely revised, so the old and new systems are not compatible.

I wanted to simply screw three of the new hinges onto my doors, but the mounting holes do not match at all.

Can anyone help me here? The doors are really in good condition to be "thrown away" just because of a few hinge holes...

Hello,
I have the same problem. During the move, two hinges for Pax Drammen broke. When I bought new hinges, I found out they don’t fit. Neither the customer service hotline nor several IKEA stores could help me. I also didn’t find anything on eBay.
Pax isn’t exactly cheap, and I don’t see why I should buy a whole new door just because of one broken hinge...
Help. Does anyone have a tip on where to get an old hinge or two?
Best regards
