Are these wardrobes Ikea Pax?

Hi, we're moving into a new house soon that has these wardrobes (which are staying!)
Are they Ikea Pax? (the vendors aren't sure - I think they inherited them themselves!)
Would we be able to add Pax sliding doors to these? Anything we need to know/beware of?
Sorry for the stupid questions but I'm a total DIY novice!

DS1 has an Ikea Pax and it does look very similar, with the sliding drawer and everything. His has doors on but the standard opening ones as opposed to sliding doors.

If it is Pax though, you should be able to add any doors that Ikea sell as Pax-compatible. When you move in, have a close inspection of the side panels of the wardrobe - there might still be a tell-tale Ikea sticker left on somewhere Wink.

Looks like Ikea Pax to me too and I have a load of them.

The later wardrobes have Ikea printed into the side panel, it did used to be a sticker and they are also on the top and bottom pieces.

The only thing to consider if you get hinged doors (I only have hinged ones is you may need to reposition the shelf due the the centre hinge. I tend to count the holes, so when I redesign the wardrobe interiors I know how many hole spaces a drawer takes up etc etc.

Yes, they definitely are. Unless another company has copied the details exactly.

And don't forget that there are two different heights. Those look like the shorter 201cm height, not the 236cm, but do have a good measure up to avoid any problems there.
