Hello everyone!
I am in the process of assembling my new Pax wardrobe (Lyngdal, 2m x 2.36m), but I have a problem with the sliding doors. The front sliding door (whose guide sits on the inner guide rail) cannot be fully opened to the left, but stops about 15cm before the left edge. I can easily slide the inner door past it. However, I have no idea where or why the outer sliding door is getting stuck. Both doors close flush with the outer right edge on the right side. This is unpleasant because I cannot pull out the trouser hanger in the right half to the front since the front door does not close flush to the left and blocks the right half of the wardrobe by about 15cm.
Does anyone perhaps know this problem and have a tip? This whole thing is driving me crazy...

Well, I don't really know the cabinet, but if you look closely, it should be possible to see where the door gets stuck. On the upper rail? On the lower rail? On the other door rail? Are there scratch marks? Are there scratching noises? Is the upper rail centered/according to the instructions? Could the stopper on the side be too far in the middle? Is there anything (packaging waste) stuck in one of the guide grooves? I don't have any more ideas either

Hello!


I have the same problem, has anyone already found a solution for this?

Furthermore, I also have the problem that the inner door does not close completely to the left and I am missing about 2-3 cm on the end rail... However, I noticed that on the upper rail the left stopper for the door has a greater distance from the end than on the right side..... which would at least explain the problem for the inner door, but why can the outer one not be slid all the way to the left???


maybe you already know something by now?

>thank you in advance

I don't know if this helps you now, but we managed it by adjusting the left stopper and since then it works.. no idea how... we simply moved the left stopper all the way to the left and now the second door also opens completely...

I also have a problem with the sliding doors. The doors cannot be fully closed. I have checked the manual again. It was mentioned in the forum that there are long slat components A and B. There is no marking on mine. How do I recognize them? I cannot place the rollers on top differently, as they are predetermined. It looks like the rollers on the outside door are not far enough outward each. I am desperate.......

I found the solution for myself. The doors were not properly hung .....
To make it easier: Remove the stopper on one side and do not yet mount the lower running parts on the doors. Then hang the doors from the side at the top and only then attach the lower running rails to the doors. Then it goes very easily (after 2 hours of fiddling and taking apart and putting together and trying)
