Hi Jess- I’m curious, did your doors come with a space for knobs/handles or did you have to drill in and create a hole? Thanks in advance!

It’s tough to say without knowing how many coats you’re talking but they can definitely fit a lot in them. If you have a lot of big bulky coats you might want two.

Looking to use this system for my mudroom and curious to know how many coats and jackets could fit in one? Want to make sure it will work for my family of 4! We are thinking of getting 2 of the 39inch wardrobes and debating on whether one can be for coats or if we need to have both wardrobes available… Thanks in advance!

Hi Laura, yes the ones we have are definitely deep enough for coats. I have winter coats in them no problem.

This post comes at the best time! We are redoing our mudroom, and I think the Pax wardrobes might be perfect for us. However, I’m wondering if you think they are deep enough for coat closets?

Thanks!

I’ve looked into custom doors for other IKEA things we have and it always seemed too expensive to be worth it but I do think it can be a great option. I actually really love the IKEA doors we got, they’re not the BEST quality but they are certainly fine for our PAX system.
