IKEA Pax Hack for Builtin Closet Look

What is a IKEA Pax Hack for Builtin Closet Look?

This IKEA Pax hack creates a fully custom looking builtin closet simply by applying trim, drawer fronts, and doors to the ready made cabinets.

The IKEA Pax wardrobes are a very popular item for building custom layouts that fit your space as well as customizing the functionality inside with various inserts.

My plans for it are to transform these wardrobes into custom closets that look built in.
