IKEA Hack - Built-In Wardrobe For Sloped Ceilings with Sektion Cabinets | Emma Courtney Home
Sharing how we used IKEA Sektion kitchen cabinets to create a built-in wardrobe in my sister’s bedroom with sloped ceilings! This project is best paired with the blog post, where I list step-by-step instructions with more details and insights. Read it here: emmacourtneyhome.com/ikea-sek...
Please be kind. I love to share these projects with you. I don’t share them because I think you would have these identical measurements to replicate this project to a tee, but because I want to share my thought process and how I problem-solve with you. I am not perfect by any means. I repeat myself, I over-explain, and I might do something different than you would, and that’s okay!
Please do your own research if you are unsure about the way I did something in this project - I am a designer, but a self-taught DIYer - not a professional.

That looks awesome. This video gives me so much ideas on how to tackle this myself.
In love with your work. Great inspiration. ❤
Saw a short on Facebook. Love this. Thank you.
Cool project. I’ve been thinking of using IKEA kitchen drawers in a very similar fashion as a closet. So this video is very useful
So fun to watch! The final result is beautiful!
Thank you, I’m so glad you enjoyed 🥰
Love ideas for sloped walls!
Excellent Job, 🤩looks great, form and function at its best, I’m sure your sister and her husband are very happy… 😃
I know I would be, absolutely love it! 👍🏼👍🏼
🥰Dee
Looks amazing 🤩
This is such a smart idea!
Amazing ❤😊 it looks great
Very innovative project, functional and beautiful
Thank you so much!! 🥰
You impress me every time!! Great job :)
Thank you so much Megan
Looks amazing. 🤩 We are currently building a house in Sweden, so i will be using this idea in the 3 bedrooms upstairs. Thanks for sharing. xx
That’s amazing! You’ll have to show me how it turns out xx
Yes of course@@EmmaCourtneyHome
Looks great!! We're going to give this a shot in our cape cod as well! Do you have any suggestions for integrating drawers into the bottom half? I love the idea of keeping the long doors for the panel wall look but would love to have pullout drawers as well.
Yes! I’d suggest looking at the IKEA kitchen planner online. There are so many configurations for the inside of these units and I know there are drawers for some of them that would work!
That is stunning 😍
Thank you so much! I have to agree 🥰
Thank you so much!!😊
Do you have the link of the doors? It’s also from ikea?
Wow! This is EXACTLY what I've been wanting to do in my room but didn't know where to start. Thank you soooo much for this video!!! ❤
Awh you’re so welcome!!
I might have missed it but was there an estimate for a project like this?? Very similar area I need to make space with. This is very smooth looking and I'm interested.
Great video how much did this cost, thinking of doing something similar in my attic
This is super helpful! I'm looking to do nearly the same project, but open bookshelves instead. Do you think this could be done in a similar way with pre-made bookshelves?
It’s possible! I’d have to take a look at the space to know for sure though! I have another video where I built bookshelves into a sloped nook in my office if that might help
great job.
Thank you so much Linda!
Awesome video! If I wanted to put drawers in 2 of the cabinets on the right. Does ikea have drawers that would fit the 36" base cabinets, and would there be clearance issues with the outside doors when pulling the drawers out?
I’d take a look at the ikea kitchen planner. I believe they have some drawers that would work with the doors!
Hi Emma, i am looking to do the same project and also looking to simplify as i am alone when it comes to DYI.
Do you think i should use ikea kitchen cabinet feet instead of making a wooden bas like you did? I live in a old house with uneven flooring and thought i could level my cupboard up using the twisting method then stick a base board at the end of the project! 😅
Hi Augustine, you could do this but it won’t be as easy to attach baseboard. Part of the reason why I love doing a 2x4 base is the ease of attaching baseboard after! I also think the 2x4 base might be cheaper than the legs? But both work!
are these repurposed kitchens units?
I want to do something similar in a loft room,
I was thinking about using pax carcass as I can use the sliding doors as the area has limited space
your idea looks alot more stable, very nice
They’re brand new kitchen units from IKEA, the Sektion line
Love your videos! What software do you use to make the sketches? Thank you!
Sketchup!
Thank you so much for your video and blog post! We are going to start this project soon but we have an issue. The 60 inch doors do not fit to our ceiling. The total height from floor to ceiling where the doors go in front of the cabinets is 74 inches. Assuming the 2x4 takes up 4 inches, we are left with 10 inches from the top of the door to the sloped ceiling. Do you have any suggestions for what to do about that?
Have you checked to see if any pax doors might work? I think the height might but unsure about the width coordinating with the cabinets that you need for your space.
Alternatively I might try to see if Home Depot and other stores have a door that might work in their off the shelf kitchens? Another idea I would try is see if I could put a piece of trim/wood to fill the 10” gap but that’s pretty large so I hope the previous ideas might work.
@@EmmaCourtneyHome So we could use the Pax doors if we put two 2x4s in between the 36 inch wide cabinets to make the 39 inches that two pax doors combine to make width wise. But then we would have to attach hinges on the 2x4 facing forward as opposed to hinges inside on the side of the cabinet. Have you ever used hinges that you place on the outside of a cabinet?
Hmm I don’t have experience with that! I’m sorry!! I’d try to check other options like Home Depot and maybe that will work?
I wish you could come to my house and do this for my closet. Or even sell me a kit to diy this myself.
Would be very helpful to provide links to the products used along with your final budget on materials. Not sure what TH-cam rules are about use of links. Thanks for considering.
Hey Kim, everything is linked in the description box plus I have a blog post with more details and links emmacourtneyhome.com/ikea-sektion-built-in-wardrobe-for-sloped-ceilings/
@@EmmaCourtneyHomep
It says the doors are 15" wide, but then how are 2 of them covering a 36" space?
Everything is linked in the description. Please note that each item comes in various sizes and may not automatically populate on what I purchased when you click the link
How did you get the angle of the ceiling
A few different ways such as using equations… but in the initial planning stage we just measured the height from the floor (at the wall) to the ceiling, and then measured how deep we wanted it, and then from the floor to the ceiling in that spot as well
Wow this would have costed thousand to get it custom made
