Hello everyone,

I have taken over this Pax wardrobe, which means I didn’t assemble it myself. The upper wardrobe door can no longer be fully slid to the side; around 80% of the way, it suddenly becomes very difficult to slide further. If you really push, you can close it, but that shouldn’t be the normal situation. I’m a bit at a loss now. I suspect the problem is at the top because the resistance seems to come from the upper part of the track.

I just don’t know the best way to fix this issue. The wardrobe reaches all the way to the ceiling. I believe it is an older model. I’m attaching photos.

Thank you very much for your help and best regards!
