I reckon as long as you plan it well enough and like the product already, crack on. If you fuck it up, they are pick'n'mix parts so you should be able to get replacement panels/parts easily enough.
We have two massive PAX jobbies connected side by side so there are two double sliding doors. All the storage and really flexible where we both wanted different drawer/hanger combinations. Also the whole thing was less than about £1,200. Put them together during the Japan v South Africa game of the last world cup so was slightly distracted to say the least and they haven't fallen down yet.

An actual DIY question. In my current flat I have an IKEA PAX wardrobe setup which I quite like and it works well for all our clothes - I built it up as a fitted wardrobe with external shelving down on side so I can't remove it.
We are moving to a new place this weekend and we can't take the fitted PAX with us. So, I want to install another one. But, the alcove its going into is 184cm and the double pax system we currently have is 200cm. Would I be crazy to take a 16cm deep piece out of the back/top/side of it so it sort of overlaps the alcove edge? I can make sure there are no drawers in that section as that wouldn't work.
If not where does one find other wardrobe systems that don't get McSpendy.
