Hi Sara

The price of the PAX slipping wardrobe doorways can be steep, specially if you have selected those with glass or fancy grove veneers. But the plain ones like the SVORKMO is at a more inexpensive premium collection. It sells at $149 for a duo including the rail. I’m not sure about hardware costs at your sphere but procreating your own out of regular openings and a sliding entrance rail system may not be cheap either.

Nevertheless, to answer your question, to make a pair of slithering closet openings for the PAX system is probable. As IKEA does not sell the rail separately, you’ll need to get the title hardware for it. Take a look at this upright on alternative runways for PAX slithering doors.

Just change the PAX sliding closet doors with regular doors.

Another method would be to use a barn door organization, like how Janet did.
