Hi all,

How well do Akurum cabs work as clothing closets in the bedroom? Does anyone have any pics of a Akurum fitted with rods, drawers, etc? Or any opinion on if it's smart to do or not?

Here's why...

We just gutted our closets but the dimensions in each doesn't fit well with Pax without losing a bunch of space (yes, I've read about this on a few other threads). What will work spacing wise is to put in a bunch of Akurum high cabs (30"+30"+15") should fill in our 75"+ closets perfectly.

Thanks all!

No reason you can't do it. They're certainly sturdy enough.

You'll be limited to using the "kitchen" style drawers, tho. And you'd have to mount your own clothes rods - but this shouldn't be too much trouble.

You will have the option of using interior drawers behind doors or pullouts.

You might think of using a lighted shelf or two to help in finding things in the dark

Thanks RubrikGreen, I appreciate the advice!

You're welcome! There's a *lot* of possibility in the Akurum components. If they fit your space, go for it!

One difference is the doors - the kitchen styles don't have the semi-transparent panels like the bedroom styles do, or the mirror doors.

One "edit" to what RG said - there is a new (dare I say "cheaper"?) design for the closet rods that come with the Pax system these days, and you can cut them to fit the smaller Akurum widths.

The only issue you'll run into is that one end of the rod won't "click" into the plastic support (no more screwed in metal plates!), but that shouldn't be a problem - if you need to lock that end into place, you can use a small dab of silicone caulk to do that trick.
