Hello everyone,

my problem is basically a visual one. A friend helped me assemble the Pax wardrobe with sliding door.
He assembled the carcass alone, which I did not check. Unfortunately, he did not put the baseboards into the front holes, which is why they are shifted backwards (except on one side, so one baseboard is even crooked). But since the doors are already mounted, I do not want to disassemble everything again to change the baseboards.
Does anyone have a trick to solve the problem anyway?

Regards
Andreas

Solution: Completely disassemble, unfortunately there is no other way...

Hello,

it's probably too late, but the complete disassembly is not necessary!!!

The same thing happened to me recently: The baseboard was in the wrong holes on one side, and I thought I would have to remove the back panel again. But that's not necessary at all:

Loosen the Rastex screws at the front left and right so that you can remove the side panels with the dowels. Carefully press the side panels apart so that you can move the baseboard from the wrong holes to the correct ones. Then press them together again and tighten the Rastex screws.
