Hello! Is there still a need? I have a new set of rails (guide for rollers above and guide below) for a 2.5 meter cabinet. There are 2 pieces each about 125 cm long, they will then be screwed together in the middle. For 2 meters, they would have to be shortened accordingly. However, I don't know how to ship it as cheaply as possible. Regards

It’s not that simple. The milling has to be done, the holes have to be redrilled, the end piece has to be inserted...

Hello! The aluminum profile is the same length throughout, what would need to be done is shortening (at one end where the stopper is attached, so that the transition Profile<->Profile is as smooth as possible) and drilling a hole for the stopper or its attachment. Sure, it’s a makeshift solution and not a finished product, but the effort is manageable. Regards

And what about the milling at the end of the rail so that it goes around the side wall of the carcass? Or is there a milling there?

The next one:

The Pax 250 meter has 4 carcasses, i.e. 2 x 75 cm and 2 x 50 cm. The Pax 200 meter has 2 carcasses with 2 x 100 cm each.

Therefore, at least 2 millings on the rails have to be redone. Just for better understanding. If you have the necessary craftsmanship skills, like me, it would not be a problem, only a layman would be helpless with it. Especially since the rails lose stability because of it. I would be very cautious with something like that. If it comes to the point that a rail loosens due to instability and the doors fall out, everything was for nothing and he still has to buy new doors and rails. Especially since the warranty is void with modified rails.

Hello! I looked at the rails again and placed them against a 2-meter cabinet, the only thing you have to do is shorten them and drill a hole for the stopper. The recesses (the bottom guide) also fit if you shorten the rail by about 25 cm. Ergo: also for people who do not have the necessary craftsmanship skills (like Maverick1854 ;->)! Regards
