WARDROBE HACK IKEA PLATSA | DIY BUILT IN CLOSET

@KatjaNordkvist
I was very inspired by this video, I'm planning to implement a similar project, but we have very high ceilings - 3.42 m... thinking about a staircase system... how do you get to the upper shelves?

very helpful especially for the floor platform thanks

I’d have definitely put one above the door too. To only would it look better but provide even more storage. Great job. It looks fantastic

Very nice video and I like the "old school" tools Jonathan used. You all must be based in Europe; I detect a slight Scandinavian accent and the metric measurements roll off your tongue very easily! :)

Isn’t this super expensive?

thats not a hack thats a full scale carpenter work

What is your rough estimate of how much the entire project costed you?

Hi Katja, big fan of your projects, thank you for the guidance! Is there any link to all the screws, paint etc you used for the project?

Not buying a saw? All the projects you have? Really?

What’s your honest thoughts on this after use for a while now? Are they still steady and in good shape? 😅 ❤

Lovely👍🏻🇦🇺

Probably one of my favorite how to videos. After all I’ve watched I don’t think I’ve seen many be so specific and it’s my first time hearing about the need to include the depth of the doors in the side paneling which makes so much sense but is something I definitely would have overlooked.

Thanks!

Where is the moulding from?

Godt gået og formidlet! Vi har givet os i kast med løsning inspireret af jeres. Jeg undrer mig over et af jeres trin, måske I kan uddybe. Jeres sokkel flugter ikke med forreste kant af skabene, alligevel passer alting til slut. Er det fordi de stykker MDF, som sættes foran soklen bagefter, ikke er 16 mm tykke, men mindre? Ellers ville jeg jo tænke, at soklen skulle flugte med skabets kant, og når man så satte en 16 mm tyk MDF-plade på soklen bagefter, så ville denne flugte med skabslågerne...?
Mvh. Emma

Hi

Can you please share how you painted the cabinets and doors? And what products you used? Thanks!

Awesome job

Can I ask what the platform is for? We’re looking at something similar but didn’t know a platform is needed.

Thanks a lot for this video, very helpfull for my closet project. I have a question about the platform, how is it fixed on the floor ? Thanks :)

Absolutely brilliant job. Your attention to detail and planning resulted in a high grade, professional job

Another cabinet floating above the door would be an amazing built is cove look with a deep cased opening. Could be useful storage for winter items!

I have a similar project coming up in my daughter's bedroom so this video has been very useful. Thank you 😊

In real life platsa cupboards are dog shyte, the quality is incredibly low for something coming from IKEA. In your video, it looks nice. Well done.
Having been to IKEA, I'm never buying platsa stuff, unless and until they improve it.

Where are those doorknobs from? Love them.

Thanks Katja for this super informative and easy to follow instructional video! You mention you painted the door fronts months before, was it quite easy to paint the Sannidal doors? Did you only use a primer or did you need to sand them first? Thanks so much!

🥰🥰🥰

Hi i really like your video. But i still didn't understand what kind of doors you've been used in your project? It looks much better than ikea doors.

Thank you for all the explanation and videos showing how you guys did everything. It looks great 🎉

Best video on ikea hack I’ve seen! Looks incredible, if I may ask, can you please send a link of where you got the crown molding, is it dentil crown molding made out of foam? Link or name please. Thank you! ❤

Looks great. ❤ and great video. I’ll be following for more. Where in Denmark do you live?

Barrell fasteners work better when attaching units.

You should know that Platsa design comes with hardware to stack to each other and secure it...and dont need to screw in wirh each other. This is to avoid the cabinet to crack

Very thorough explanation. Thanks a lot !

What kind of drawers did you choose, I can’t find them on the Germany ikea side
Thank you

Can I borrow your husband for a weekend please 😂

They are so beautiful and gorgeous closet! I love your molding and wall color. Excellent job!!

Si sad we don’t have platsa in us :(

I love this so much - beautiful - quick question - do you do all of the cabinets instead of closets or do you have both?

Hej! I also have a Platsa wardrobe and would like to paint the trims/molding I am applying to the doors and shelves.
Any tips on finding the perfect paint that matches the existing Ikea color?
Thanks!

Waoo I'm so glad to find your video

This is so helpful !!!

Thanks, very helpful ❤
