I just built an entire closet with the old system alone - 4 units plus the corner attachment. The hardest part was attaching the back alone . I wish I waited and got this new system where the back problem is solved.
Very useful, thank you!
I am very encouraged! Yes, I can do this!
You can 🤗
I'll have to move with a lot of the old PAX and I know it'll be a horror especially because of the nails in the back panel. This new design looks amazing, can't wait to see it in person! Thank you very much for sharing!
Thanks ! You are right about the original, taking apart was a nightmare.
Move those pictures to the wall on the right of the pax ;). This was a very informative video.
That wall will all be changing 👍 I’m building this pax a frame to look more fitted
congrats Kristy! I have done same
Nice explanation…. Just struggled with an old version ikea type 3 meter ……should have waited …..but honestly…..bitty now not bitty later 😂
hehehe I love your manifest TH-cam button frame. Kudos!!! xxx
My daughter made me that when I hit 20k subscribers 😂 I hit 200k on instagram and didn’t get anything 🤪
Great video and very helpful. I assembled my Pax 2.0 wardrobes today. I ordered a run of 50+100+50cm carcasses, 236cm tall with Reinsvoll doors. Worth mentioning the 50cm wide units now also fold in the centre like the 100cm do. The hardest part was unfolding them whilst vertical, but once the back rail was in place assembly was a breeze. The design of these is really well thought through, and the tall units feel quite sturdy. Really pleased how it turned out.
Thanks for the feedback on the new Pax . I think the multiple folds are the 75 & 100 in the shorter depth.
@craigball Did you find any video or other detailed guidance on how to install the back rail at the proper height/angle for your floor? This video and similar videos on TH-cam frustratingly all seem to omit the mounting step and only show how to put together the new frame together freestanding, which is not the difficult part.
@@ciel6347 I only found this one and one more which show assembly. Not sure what you mean by back rail. The only back rail is one at the base that slides into the black clips in the corner. The only attachment to the wall is through two holes located in the top corners, and you drill into the wall. If you intend to put a timber batten on the wall to screw into, then you will have a gap behind your wardrobe.
@@craigball480 Sorry, I thought because your comment coincided with approximately 1 week after new pax frames appeared on the USA ikea website that you had purchased your frame in the USA. It appears that only the USA has a wall-mounting new pax frame.
You did well to film all that, it will make a great online manual for people to follow 🎥
You took one for the team, taking that all apart and re-building it 🔨 Shame about that broken piece
People shouldn’t be put off by the older version, I think they are pretty easy to put together, as long as you have the space to build them and the strength to lift them, they aren’t difficult
It’s not been the warmest of June’s 🥶
Fab🤩
Thanks 👍
Good job.
I'm sure you know this already. If you're a Family card holder, IKEA will replace any parts damaged during assembly.
Yes, great service from IKEA. I’m taking my drawn on pax shelf back !
@@kirstygriffiths749 Perhaps you could also take the damaged bottom piece back too? BTW are you going to do a full kitchen diner reveal?
This is a great video, super helpful. I didn’t even know IKEA were doing these, so thank you. Do you think the taller version of the Pax could be done by one person also?
Yes I do. As long as you have a step ladder to clip the top in.
USA stores are showing stock now, but the wall mounting process is different than other countries. I find that very interesting.
That is interesting to know.
@kirstygriffiths749 In the USA the units are mounted on a metal rail across the back. The back panel has a square section cut out of the top corners that you later cover with plastic pieces. I wonder if it has something to do with each country's safety requirements for securing furniture to the wall.
Take the broken bottom part back too they will give you a new piece
I might try that 😉
There are no more corner units showing on the Pax 2.0 pages. I need one for my new closet. Do you know if they are coming?
Looks good! I wonder if it will still be possible to trim the height now? Doesnt look so easy with the new fittings!
Hummm totally agree. Planning on looking into this this week. I was planning on adapting one for my slanted wall.
Great video!! I would love to know how easy it is to cut holes into the back panel or side panels now for plug sockets etc? or do a full hack and cut one of the new Pax’s in half!?
It’s easy to cut a hole in the back. I’d use a Stanley knife. I’m not sure cutting these in half would be possible with all the new fixings.
@@kirstygriffiths749 do you think it would cut holes in the side panels?
Can you show us how to fit the doors..well done
Do you know if the new drawers are fully extendable? I have the 13 inch ones and they don’t even open halfway. Some videos I have seen on the pax komplement drawers are that some fully open and some don’t. I don’t understand why this is. Any insight would be helpful. The current drawers are basically useless and if I had know I wouldn’t have purchased.
Well done! Would you say they are as sturdy as the original PAX and are they suitable for their sliding doors? Thank you.
Absolutely 👍
The smaller holes at the front of the bottom are similar to the first PAX. They are used with sliding doors for the aluminium rails screws. This is shown in the instructions for sliding doors, which I just did a few weeks ago.
Oh fab ! Thanks for letting me know !
@@kirstygriffiths749 Sure no problem
Hi! Did yours come with a rail to attach it to the wall? I just ordered mine in the US and the description on the IKEA US website states it comes with a rail and must be mounted on the wall. There is also a video showing it being mounted to the wall.
You get fixings to attached to the wall in the uk ? I wouldn’t describe as a rail ? They are simple black tubes.
@@kirstygriffiths749 In the US IKEA website they mention rails that have to be attached to the wall and there is also a video where a man attaches the rail to the wall and then attaches the back panel to the rail.
Planning in purchasing for two rooms... just not sure if we will still be able to adapt for a slanted wall. Any thoughts on this???
You could but would be tricky I think.
I was scared of that😢 maybe a method kitchen base cabinet and then build corner shelving space above? Not perfect sadly we don’t have the height to also build a base. Will keep you updated! Seriously appreciate your post!
Curious how do you attach it without removing the skirting/baseboard?
It comes with a new design of fitting to do this.
Looks like a "hack" will be required if you are hoping to fit the old style sliding door rails onto these as they don't have the holes pre-drilled in the top panel for the two plastic top clips to fit through ... (part number 124341) that help support the top rail
They do have the holes for the sliding. I show holes and someone commented they are for the sliding doors?
@@kirstygriffiths749 that's the ones for the bottom rail of the new doors design (the old version required 4 screws in the bottom rail, but you had to make your own holes). I'm talking about the rail at the top of the unit :-)
Hi sorry if This is a repetitive question I couldn’t see it had been asked - are the pax 2’s in stock now? I’ve checked online and I can’t see a way to check, the old assembly instruction are still linked to the product but realise that could just be a lag in getting the site updated, thanks! Sorry to make you ikea customer services 😂😂
The beige / grey is in stock in the standard depth. I’m told the rest will start arriving in the UK from July. You can tell by the back catches on the image, if it has the two high up middle pieces it’s the new pax. No idea why IKEA are keeping it so secret.
@@kirstygriffiths749 thank you so much!!!
Hi I have seen a few negative reviews over the past week about the new units and the quality being not as good. What are your thoughts on this?
Quality is exactly the same. Only difference is the use of plastic removable fixing v’s screws and the back being fixed on. As I show in my review … I built it, took it apart again….. and then built it again ok.
No metal fixings and no screwdriver kinda makes me want to run for me life, how on earth is this thing stable & what guarantee is there that it will not fall apart in few months time
Time will tell I suppose. This feels solid, plastic lasts a long time remember
What a enthusiastic lady. My wife can't even burn toast, poached egg is like shoe leather or tyre rubber.
🤣🤣
A very similar new pax frame appears to be available on Ikea's USA website but it appears to come with a wall-mounting rail. Did yours come with a rail? The rail part number in the new manuals is 10116976, 10116987, or 10117011 depending on the width of the frame. It is unclear to me if the rail is an optional anchoring mechanism for tipping prevention or is a significant structural part for the back board. If the former, I am confused why the frame can't anchor directly into the behind wall like the older pax frame designs. I am having a hard time finding a video that shows how to install the rail, which i think adds significantly increased difficulty to the installation process for a novice DIYer.
Pax frame does not come with a rail ? The new pax comes with plastic fixings to add to the wall
@@kirstygriffiths749 Recent reddit posts from others suggest that a different version of the new pax frame was released in the USA, which explains why none of the existing youtube videos for pax 2.0 are helpful to my purchasing and diy or hire carpenter decisions. Thanks for your reply.
It does indeed have a non optional wall a fixed rail 🥲 and it’s horrible and cheap
Hi, Can you please share the article number. I was chatting with IKEA Customer and they won't give me any info unless I provide the article number. Thank you!
Check the UK site - Pax 100 in the grey/beige it should give you the number on the website ?
@@kirstygriffiths749 Thank you
And not a screwdriver in sight. Lol
Thank goodness for that ! I can never find one 🤣
