  • Looking to remove the previous owner's built in wardrobes in 2 rooms. One room will be replaced with IKEA Pax system, the other with bookcases and bench to create a sort of reading nook.

    I can't tell if this could be a DIY job or I'll end up pulling down plaster and fucking it all up.

    Pictures attached - looks to be glued to the wall/skirting and then a timber frame for the doors/rails/shelf. Logic tells me a good electric saw with a thin blade, then carefully take back what is left with another tool should give me something good to work with? Or should I just put it on my tab and get someone in?

  • We had something similar. Thought of replacing also but a new coat of paint and a change of handles gave it a new lease of life. Unless you just hate it

  • Yeah this. Is there something about the PAX system that’s superior to what’s already in place @velohobbit? Even just replacing the doors with different ones or sliding panels would be way less hassle and would completely change the look.
