Ikea Pax drawer hack 👗 link in bio (Amazon storefront) In a Pax wardrobe with doors, it's not possible to place a drawer at the bottom due to protruding hinges. By replacing the hinges with refrigerator hinges, it becomes possible to install a drawer at the bottom. The drawer at the bottom is not obstructed by the hinges and can be easily used. The doors need to be readjusted by installing a refrigerator hinge. To attach the new hinge, I removed the white plate and used the screws from the IKEA hinge, ensuring a secure fit. #ikea #ikeahack #ikeapax #closettour #aesthetic #organizedhome
One of the pitfalls of the PAX's as-is design is that you can not install drawers where door hinges are positioned. But, online DIYers and IKEA die-hards have found the perfect, affordable hack to address this issue. To maximize drawer space and maintain a closed storage system, all you have to do is change out the hinge to one that doesn't protrude as much. The Ravinte ¾ inch overlay hinges work great and are available on Amazon.

While the PAX is sold as a clothing wardrobe, its versatile storage options make it an excellent choice for a kitchen pantry. Organize your pantry like an expert by opting for mesh KOMPLEMENT baskets to see what food you have available, and consider adding the slide-out shelves to give easy access to items toward the back. Take this hack to the next level and use the KOMPLEMENT clothing rail to seal and display bagged foods like chips and pretzels. Opt for single-clip boot hangers for smaller bags, or use two-clip pant hangers for larger, family-size snacks.

If your PAX wardrobe is stuffed to the brim with your favorite footwear, take a cue from @morganbrittbutler to maximize shoe storage space. Repurpose acrylic makeup palette organizers to keep flat shoes or sandals in line by slotting them in the organizer spaces. This works especially well if you already have the KOMPLEMENT shelves that slide out to reveal your belongings, but it will also work on stationary shelves. If you have more substantial shoes, try using an acrylic handbag organizer for a similar organization tactic. This option from Moryimi on Amazon is adjustable, to accommodate different sizes.
