Hello,

I want to adjust the Ikea hinges. This is the problem I’m currently having with my Pax wardrobe (3.5m length). To adjust the Ikea hinge, I can move the doors left or right, up or down, or forward or backward using the screws on the hinges. But now I would need to rotate them.
Here is a picture


I placed a level on the wardrobe, it looks very good.

I can practically do nothing with the feet. Either they didn’t hold at all during installation (despite countless hammer blows) or they tipped over when moved. But as I said, the level says it’s straight…

I’m very grateful for any tips.

Yours, SH

To adjust the Ikea hinge, simply turn it in at the top and out at the bottom or vice versa, then the door will turn. Or simply place a schnitzel underneath.

I did that and it was a step in the right direction, but the problem is not completely resolved.

In the meantime, I also have the feeling that the side walls have warped somewhat due to the fastening screws to the other cabinets. However, everything on the cabinet above it is nicely level. If I loosen the fastening screws, overall it doesn't look nice anymore because of the too large gaps.

Any more ideas?

Check whether the cabinets have been mounted exactly at right angles. Adjust each cabinet individually so that there is no gap between the cabinets. Connection screws should preferably only hold together, not pull together. Use the spirit level vertically as well, not just horizontally.
