Ikea Pax sliding doors, the left door does not fit into the rail

Hello,

I am very happy that I found your forum because my Pax cabinet is still driving me crazy...

I have reached step 35 of the instructions. The result is that the sliding door running in the rear tracks can only be pushed all the way to the left with brute force. Without force, it remains about 10 cm open.

Also, after step 35, I still have six screws left over. That shouldn’t be the case. However, I can’t explain where we forgot them because we built the doors more than meticulously due to the "brilliant" instructions (about 3 hours). It was probably for nothing...

Could you maybe give me a tip as to why the left door – running in the rear tracks – cannot be pushed further to the left? We have taken into account the rails marked with an "A". They are installed in the door closer to the carcass.

Thanks very much for your help!

You probably hung the doors too far back, so that the door doesn’t run in the track, but behind the track. Then the metal rests on the aluminum track and scratches. Also, the back door then hangs crooked. Take a look at the door from the side. Then you’ll probably see what I mean.

Hello Maverick 1854,

I was only able to test your suggestion yesterday. The doors don’t work on their own... You were right. The lower brackets were not in the rear track, but just behind it. Because of that, there wasn’t enough space between the doors.

Problem solved - the doors work. THANK YOU!!! :)

You're welcome... ;)
