That is awesome!!!
I think I might use these for some similar storage issue.

I am in the process of redesigning our 1955 2 bedroom house into a 4-5 bedroom with attached garage. Exciting!

I do not want to use traditional doors anywhere - except the bathrooms. I love the idea of having the light come through. And these doors are perfect for that.

How much do you think they weigh?
Do you have a picture of the other slide guide your talking about?

This is my favorite hack ever. I'm still trying to figure out how to use it in my not-so-modern house.

Re: My PAX sliding door mouted to drywall project. 

I have just completed my second closet door instal. I will include more and better quality pics soon. Pictures are from my first door hack.

My walls were built in the 50's. NO DRYWALL,NO STUDS in the place I live. Steel mesh,Steel bars,cement and plaster construction.

Basically I built and opening out of wood (2x4) and mounted the rail on the wood. I used the ikea bottom rail also.

I will include a more detailed process how I did it, with better quality and quantity of pictures. I have one more door to instal and I will post my process.

But if you can not wait.

Ikea already tells you how to mount just the doors on an existing closet. I got the how to, by looking at how they display various doors at the store. They mount the rail on a 1x3 piece of wood and put the rail on it. The do the same with the bottom rail I assume that ever store displays the different door that are available in one section. Go check it out at a store nearest to you.

More info coming soon

Does anyone know if you can buy extensions for the pax track as I would like to install the pax doors as pocket doors.

Thanks for the inspiration of taking on this project.

Thanks for sharing your project. You inspired me to use the PAX Tonnes doors for sliding closet doors. Have been trying to upload photos to share, but am having problems...
