The PAX wardrobe system, like their METHOD kitchens, allows you to assemble furniture like a designer set. But is it so universal and will it solve your storage problems? I will share with you my personal purchasing experience, and also show you what the cabinet looks like in a real interior.
Wardrobe Pax Ikea
The Ikea store offers us several standard size cabinets: 200 by 60 by 236, 150 by 60 by 236, 150 by 44 by 201, 100 by 60 by 236, 100 by 38 by 236, 75 by 60 by 236, 150 by 66 by 236 , 50 by 38 by 236, etc. This assortment assumes that each buyer will be able to assemble his own ideal wardrobe of the appropriate size and independently choose the internal arrangement of shelves, crossbars and drawers.
This approach is extremely successful, as it allows you to make the most intelligent use of the space inside the cabinet. After all, it often happens that we place clothes in one part of the closet on a crossbar, and the second half below is empty. Wouldn't it be better to place pull-out baskets and drawers, trouser hangers or neat shelves for shoes there?
White Pax cabinet in the interior
Pax series cabinets can be equipped with both sliding doors and classic hinged doors. White cabinets are the most popular.
The classic white facade is not without appeal due to its laconic design and regular shapes.
Pax cabinets can be combined and act as a large corner cabinet with several sections or a free-standing cabinet near the wall.
The white Pax wardrobe can be equipped with both glossy and matte fronts. Glass can be solid or translucent.
The photo above shows a pure white Pax wardrobe with a plain front. This is the most inexpensive package: wardrobe + sliding doors.
Wardrobes with a depth of 44 centimeters are often equipped with crossbars for hanging clothes, this allows you to place a large amount of clothing in a fairly narrow wardrobe.
Black Pax wardrobe in the interior
An equally stylish solution could be a Pax cabinet in black or dark brown. In the appropriate interior, in combination with bright decorative items and LED lighting, it will look in all its glory.
The Pax wardrobe can be equipped with simple, but not boring swing doors.
Or installed without doors at all. Convenient built-in drawers will hide your things from prying eyes, leaving only a few things on the hangers visible.
This kind of wardrobe has been in increasing demand lately. Whether this is practical is another question.
The facades for sliding wardrobes of the Pax series can be made of translucent or opaque glass.
According to reviews, the wardrobe is 200 cm long and 60 cm wide and can accommodate a huge amount of clothes. Sometimes it is used as the only closet in the apartment.
Mirror cabinet Pax in the interior
A common technique for increasing the space of a small room is to install a wardrobe with mirrored doors. The Pax sliding wardrobe is not a banal mirrored wardrobe, but a real interior decoration.
Both doors do not have to be mirrored; often one facade is textured and opaque, the second is mirrored.
One of the main disadvantages of mirror facades is their soiling. Fingerprints inevitably remain on the doors of such a wardrobe. Facades have to be washed quite often.
Perhaps someone will prefer one of the most inexpensive wood-look facades, as in the photo above. This façade does not “collect” fingerprints and is highly practical.
Comfortable hallway in IKEA style
Which furniture should you choose from the set presented above for your home? I suggest starting from the size of the room, its capabilities, the number of family members and the amount of clothes and shoes that need to be stored there.
Regardless of the size and shape of the room, it is necessary to allocate space for:
- seasonal clothing (jackets, coats, fur coats and other outerwear that you wear every day in a given season);
- the shoes you are currently wearing;
- hats;
- bags, glasses, umbrellas and other accessories.
A bench or banquette on which you can sit to tie your shoelaces or place your bag; mirror; additional organizers for storing gloves, umbrellas and other small items - things are very useful, but they will not fit in every case due to the size of the room.
Depending on the area and shape of the corridor, let's see what arrangement options there may be.
Small or very narrow hallway
A hallway in a small apartment will solve many storage problems, even for a large family, if you plan it correctly in advance. To do this, you need to draw a room design on a sheet of paper with the exact parameters of width and length, marking doors, switches, sockets and other elements. Decide what things you will store in the hallway. Based on this, select the required set of furniture from the catalog and draw it on the drawing to make sure that everything fits in size.
Look at the photo below for an example of how a shelf for hats also serves as a clothes hanger thanks to the hooks at the bottom.
The Pinnig hanger has hooks for clothes and a shelf for shoes.
“Pinnig”, price – 6,999 rubles.
Benches with a shelf for shoes "Chusig" or "Hemnes" are practical and save space.
Bench "Hemnes", cost - 5,499 rubles.
Unfortunately, at IKEA it is impossible to make a custom-made wardrobe for the individual dimensions of the room, but you can design furniture in the designer by choosing one of the standard frames with a width of 50 cm, 100 cm, 150 cm or 200 cm. In the design program you can choose from several options for facades (including making a mirrored door). The advantage of designing closets is also the ability to think through internal storage, choosing the right number of shelves for shoes, hooks or crossbars with hangers for clothes.
Open storage systems and dressing rooms can be viewed in the “Pax”, “Ophus”, “Yonaksel”, “Elvari” series.
Pax wardrobe (right)
If a mirror is necessary, you can install it above a shoe rack, chest of drawers, or on a closet door or front door.
Shoes can fit even in a small and narrow corridor. Their depth is only 18-20 cm.
Shoe shoes "Stell" (RUB 5,999 for 1 piece) in a narrow corridor
Large hallway
In a spacious room there will be no problems with organizing storage. But there is the problem of emptiness that needs to be filled in order for the space to be harmonious and cozy. Choosing furniture from IKEA allows you to cope with this task.
Let's see how you can wisely manage the large area of the front hall.
- Use large furniture.
- Complete the decor with chests of drawers and shoe racks.
- In a large hallway you can afford a full-length mirror in a three-dimensional frame.
- The hall can be supplemented with paintings and house plants in large flower pots so that the atmosphere does not seem empty and uncomfortable.
White chest of drawers - “Brimnes” (RUR 3,999), bench and hanging shelf – “Hemnes”. Mirror “Nissedal” (RUR 3,999), bench stool “Strandmon” (RUR 4,999), shoe shoe “Bisa” (RUB 1,699)
Cheap hallway
How to rationally organize storage, make the space stylish, but at the same time save money? In arranging a hallway with IKEA, you can really spend only 3-5 thousand.
Shelf (RUB 1,499) and bench (RUB 3,999). “Chusig” series in white color “Portis” series shelves. Price per set – 2,198 rubles. Shoe shoe “Bissa”, 1,699 rubles.
Instead of a large, expensive framed coat rack or cabinet, use inexpensive hanger bars with hooks.
No one will ever guess that buying furniture for the hallway cost you a ridiculous amount of money if you make it interesting with the help of bright wall colors, with the help of interior details that will add coziness - a bright stool instead of a pouffe, pillows on the bench, beautiful containers and boxes for various useful little things, house plants in stylish pots, etc.

Peculiarities
Of course, in today's environment there are a huge number of different furniture manufacturers that sell wardrobe systems for storing things. However, the Swedish company IKEA, which is one of the largest furniture suppliers in the world, has gained the greatest popularity.
Thanks to various features of furniture, including dressing rooms, IKEA has gained recognition among many customers. It provides a huge selection of cabinets, racks, and cabinets. The buyer can choose exactly the product that will look good in his room.
In addition, the IKEA dressing room is distinguished by the fact that it is universal furniture - it allows you to store both small and larger items, and very economically. This design will take up little space and will fit perfectly even into a one-room apartment, where any other cabinets seem too large. Versatility is achieved by creating a product form that would allow the use of additional components if necessary - shelves, drawers, compartments.
Added to all this is the low price of the models and their impeccable quality. Many people note that IKEA wardrobe systems fit perfectly into any color scheme and go well with furniture from other companies.
Dazzling white
Scandinavian style implies simplicity and minimalism, and the climatic conditions of the northern countries with long winter evenings and a lack of sunny days are reflected in the love of white in the interior.
The Swedish company IKEA illustrates this style by offering all kinds of white furniture: open shelving, chests of drawers and cabinets, hinged wardrobes and sliding wardrobes.
White IKEA cabinets, despite the obvious soiling, are easy to clean, because the high-quality MDF coating is easy to clean, and the white color visually makes the furniture less bulky.
The line of famous open shelving “Billy” is diversified with interesting models of white shelving “Kallax” and “Fridlev”, and the new product for 2022 - the “Besto” storage combination with glass or wooden doors is one of the best solutions in the middle price segment.
Swinging snow-white wardrobes “Kleppstad” with two or three compartments occupy the niche of budget models. With a small height of 176 cm, they allow you to create perfect order in small apartments. Their solid white facades are simple and unpretentious.
Brimnes models from the same price segment have a more interesting design of door panels, and the three-door wardrobe is decorated with a mirror insert.

In the IKEA catalog, wardrobes are made without harm to the environment from 100% natural environmental materials. Today, Ikea has three cabinet options - Stolmen, Elgo and Pax. Each closet has an individual design that meets the rule “Every thing should have its own place.” Some models from Ikea have additional lighting, which helps save time when choosing the right thing. However, the presence of backlight increases the cost of the product.
Model Pax
Pax wardrobes are designed for any type of clothing. And for everyday, and for evening, and for underwear. You can put literally everything in this closet. The wardrobe is equipped with sections, thanks to which clothes can be folded neatly and, if necessary, quickly found. Having once bought a Pax, it is impossible to understand how you can live without it, because it is not replaceable.
Ikea has several sizes:
1. Width 50 and 100 centimeters
2. Height 201 and 236 centimeters
3. Depth 35 and 38 centimeters.
Be sure to consider the size of your apartment when modeling your closet.
A set of internal sections will allow you to store outerwear, dresses, shirts and the like. The set includes a unique section for storing shoes.
Model Stolman
A relatively new direction is the Ikea dressing room. If you don’t know how to create a dressing room, then rather go to Ikea. After all, this is precisely why the company produces the Stolmen model range. Take a close look at the photo and you will see that the dressing room has adjustable racks that fill the empty space between the ceiling and floor. Optional height 210 – 330 centimeters. Inside, the Stolman dressing room is equipped with a chest of drawers, drawers, various shelves and other fittings. The entire model range is made in white.
Simple systems
Ikea takes care of everyone, so if you rent an apartment, then the Brame and Ikea PS wardrobe systems are your salvation. In the photo you see that these systems are easy to install and do not take up much space, but at the same time they are made according to modern standards. The cabinets are spacious and do not take up much space. As consumers say, “small but remote.”
Everything is for convenience...
Ikea cares about its customers, so on the website - “Manuals and Planners” you can create the closet of your dreams. Select the color, material, model, lighting and all the necessary accessories (drawers, shelves, sections, etc.), the created cabinets can be printed or saved to your desktop. And Ikea will do everything possible to make your dream come true.
Ikea is modern, high-quality furniture at affordable prices. Wardrobe systems from Ikea will look great in any environment. Multifunctionality and large capacity will allow you to store things in perfect order. And the quality of the material will allow the furniture to serve you happily for a long time.
Distinctive qualities of the company
The main feature of the company is to provide the client with all possible design options, plus design; in each store there are good specialists who will help you and answer any questions. The material from which furniture is made is chosen very carefully; it must be environmentally friendly and of high quality.
Ikea cabinets have all possible dimensions. You have a huge range of wardrobes for the bedroom or hallway, children's and living room, dining room and even for the cottage and your garden.
Everyone has shortcomings, and Ikea also has them, if you need tasteless, not compact and not high-quality furniture, then turn to other manufacturers. Simplicity and quality are the key to success, durability and practicality are the main rule of the company.
In our production there is no ala psychotic ensemble, everything is simple, but not as simple as shelling pears. For the last ten years, the company has been focusing on the quality and purity of the material, so that everything is safe for health.
Beautiful examples in the interior
You can attach doors of various styles to the standard Pax cabinet frame, which are suitable for rustic furniture, “space” design, modern style and others. You can also use the closet as a divider from one large room into two smaller ones (for example, to enclose a sleeping area in a studio).
The Pax system can be used to create an ideal dressing room in a small room. To do this, frames of small depth are selected, which are attached to the walls along the entire perimeter of the room. In this case, the best option would be doors with a hingeless fastening method. Inside the cabinets there is a section for things on hangers (usually occupies 1.5-2 m), a section for accessories and shoes, and a section for underwear. Thanks to the unified Ikea design, you can match the cabinets with a chest of drawers and a mirror that are identical in style.
Bergbsu doors are an ideal option for creating rooms in the Provence style or pseudo-rustic style. To refer to ethical motifs, it is enough to choose the right fittings, and now the cabinet matches the style of the antique sideboard.
The Pax storage system can become like part of a wall. To do this, the frame and sliding doors are matched to the color of the walls; the height of the wardrobe should match the height of the ceilings as much as possible. The lower part of the frame does not stand out, as if the doors were on the floor. A wardrobe made in this way is a continuation of the wall and does not visually “eat up” the space.
There are two ways to separate a bedroom from a living space with a wardrobe: a wardrobe inside the bedroom and a wardrobe outside. If the closet will store bed linen, pajamas, and household items, then it is better to turn it with its doors towards the bedroom, but if it will serve as a place for outdoor outerwear, bags, shoes and trousers, then it will be more convenient to turn it with its doors into the hallway.
How to assemble?
Assembling the system is not very complicated, but it has its own subtleties (in particular, collapsible doors). It is better to involve a professional craftsman in the process, but if you still decide to assemble the cabinet yourself, you must follow the recommendations exactly.
First of all, check the package contents. All screws, angles, pins, as well as legs, external and internal structural elements must be in place. Prepare a hammer and screwdriver. You may also need a stepladder.
The step-by-step assembly diagram is as follows:
- Determine the top and bottom of the future furniture. On the top you will find large holes for the pins.
- Screw the legs to the bottom of the product. Attach the walls of the product to it.
- Having fixed the lower part, insert the pins into the upper zone, the caps with the cross inward. When the caps are tightened, place the assembled frame in a vertical position.
- Install stiffening ribs under the bottom of the wardrobe.
- Mount the cabinet to the wall. To do this, use the most convenient mounting system.
- Place runners on the bottom and ceiling of the structure (if you purchased a wardrobe). Don't forget about the plugs at the ends of the parts.
- Install another one on the bottom runner. In the future, a door will be attached to it. Place plastic fasteners on the top runner.
- Assemble the door using screws and levels.
- Place the doors on the runners and check for ease of movement. If necessary, it can be adjusted by loosening or tightening the screws.
- If the closet has hinged doors, attach them to the frame and install handles. The product is ready for use.

Contour designs are an interesting approach to saving space in rooms. An ensemble of wardrobes is installed on both sides of the bed and above its headboard. There is a wide field for design creativity here. You can even combine a small library with a wardrobe - books are placed on shelves above your head, and clothes are in sections on both sides of the bed.

Equipment options
There are a great many options for completing shelves and sections, let’s look at a few of them. A traditional three-section wardrobe in the hallway should have a place to store outerwear, a place to store shoes, accessories, bags, suitcases and, if possible, out-of-season items.
To create the required number of compartments, the T-shaped “Compliment” system is used. It allows you to divide one large section into three. Separately, you can install baskets, drawers, rods and shelves for shoes. Inside there are many ready-made holes at a distance of 2 cm from each other for moving the shelves to a new position, so the filling scheme is individual for each person. A classic two-piece wardrobe in a bedroom for a family of two consists of the following compartments.
- Men's half: a compartment for shirts, cardigans and other things that are hung on hangers, a compartment for men's underwear and socks (box), a compartment for trousers with special hangers;
- Women's half: a larger compartment for dresses, blouses, skirts, so that you can hang long things and put bags on the shelf, two compartments with baskets for things that are stored folded and one with drawers for storing women's underwear.
For one person, you can choose a wardrobe option that will be equipped with the following compartments:
- For long clothes, there are shelves at the bottom for bags or a bar for short items, and a shelf at the top for seasonal items and shoes;
- With three shelves for bed linen and folded items, below there is a basket for towels and a drawer for linen.
Dressing table
It is not always possible to allocate space for a dressing table in a small bedroom. In this case, the dressing table can be located directly in the wardrobe system. IKEA Pax cabinets are a suitable option. You can place a mirror and a small tabletop right in the closet, and a drawer in which you can put all your cosmetics and skincare products would be a great idea.
