    WOW! This was an exceptional video not only on PAX, well thought out, thorough, detailed, presented in calm, thoughtful, easily understood way. KUDOS! THE BEST Pax planning video.
    Somethings I found helpful was to:
    * measure my existing shirt and longer hanger linear space
    * count # of pairs of shoes/boots
    * determine what can be stored elsewhere if possible: coats, holiday dresses, etc.
    * economical variation-Billy bookcases for shoe/purse storage.
    KUDOS again. Amazing video

    I recently completed my IKEA Pax closet installation and relied on your video for a lot of tips and tricks. You are so right on those pull out trays! That was the one thing I remembered and even as my husband was installing them, I kept saying make sure the jewelry trays have enough clearance. He said they were fine. What happened? Not enough space and he had to redo one of the tray installations. You really don't realize how tall they are till they are siting in the pull out tray.
    Also, I LOVE the felt that IKEA makes to line those trays with. It's super sturdy and love the grippy things underneath that prevent slippage and scraping from wood to jewelry. You mentioned that most of them fit the existing trays. Even if they don't, there are premarked dotted lines on the back to assist. For example, I had two of the smaller trays installed too and was able to cut exactly to fit them using the premeasured lines on the felt.
    Since the initial installation, I have made tweaks & added items. I do want to add another "L" shaped unit with drawers like you have on yours. I had the same issues with longer items dragging so opted to leave it wide open originally. However, I only need about 20 inches worth wide of space for those long hanging items, so the remaining 20 inches, is just wide-open space. Much better use for me to add the "L" and drawers for added storage.
    Thanks again for such a detailed and informative video!!

    I just put together a hall closet in the IKEA planner, with sliding shelves for shoes and to put containers for scarves, mittens,... on. Didn't pick the special shoe insert they carry for the slide out shelf because I feel it would get dirty very quickly. Wanted to know if I missed anything and found your video. It's wonderful!
    In my country there's also a third depth (35-58-66cm), but only with sliding doors.

    could I ask at 26:30, are you saying that the tray insert heights are too high? I did think about using non-Ikea inserts as alternatives because of cost but maybe because of height too?
