In Mozaik, the PAC Closet Library can run on Axilo adjustable feet instead of the standard panel-mounted toe. Phill walks through enabling the feet, but is up front that he does not recommend them — he prefers the continuous toe notch with a scribed sub-toe. If you do want the feet, the workflow is: switch the toe on, select the PAC leg, then fix the outrigger collision, turn off the baseboard notch, and clear any product-level leg override.
Does Phill recommend the Axilo feet?
No. Phill states plainly that he does not recommend the Axilo feet for the closet library. His preferred setup is the continuous toe notch — the panels are notched at the front automatically while the outriggers still attach the toes to the sides, so you can shim the panels, run a secondary toe in front, scribe that to the ground, and add it in. The Axilo workflow below is shown only for people who still choose to use the feet, with the gotchas called out.
How do you turn the Axilo feet on?
- Turn off the continuous toe notch first.
- Go up to the toe category and switch the toe on, then click Yes.
- Go down to Use Legs and click Yes. Your toes now switch to legs.
- Open the Settings tab, then the Miscellaneous tab, and set Legs to the PAC Axilo leg.
Why don't the feet work right away?
Out of the gate the feet collide with the outriggers. If you switch to wireframe, the outriggers sit very close to the Axilo feet — the front ones are right on the money — so the feet can't seat. You have to separate them. Moving the line board forward or back is not a good option, so your realistic choices are to move the feet or move the outriggers.
How do you fix the outrigger collision?
- Move the feet. Either adjust them per section, or go to Libraries → Hardware → Legs, find your PAC Axilo leg, optionally copy and rename it (then reselect it in the Settings tab), or just modify it directly. Increase the Inset at toe so the foot sits a little further in, and it updates automatically.
- Move the outriggers to the top of the bottom. This also requires changing the fastener grip. Phill flags this as intermediate-to-advanced — practice on a test cabinet first.
You also must turn off the baseboard notch (the BaseboardNotch parameter). Left on, the Axilo foot still works but you get a large notch at the back — Phill says that's mixing closet styles, so don't do it. Go into the Closets tab to toggle the baseboard notch off, then turn the legs back on.
How do you keep the panels off the floor with Axilo feet?
- Go into Elevation and confirm the toe height is set to your target leg height.
- Make sure you're working in millimeters (bottom-left of the screen).
- Click the panel, raise it up by the toe height, and shorten it by the same amount (make sure it rounds cleanly).
- The check: the red bounding box must line up exactly with the panel — when it does, the holes line up.
Still getting no legs at all? Clear the override
If you've done everything and still get no legs, there is probably an override in that product. Open the product (Phill checks the 96 double hang), find the leg override set to No, delete that override, and the legs come back.
A note on furniture toes and corner sections
If you're doing a furniture toe, watch the corner sections — you won't do a curved toe there, so you may want to straighten it out in the parameters by changing the radius.

FAQ
Does Phill recommend using Axilo adjustable feet in the PAC Closet Library?
No. In this video Phill says he does not recommend the Axilo feet and prefers the continuous toe notch with a separate scribed sub-toe. The Axilo workflow is shown for people who still want to use the feet.
Why do the Axilo feet collide with the outriggers in Mozaik?
The toe outriggers sit very close to (or right on top of) the Axilo feet, so the feet can't seat. Fix it by moving the feet (inset more at the toe) or moving the outriggers to the top of the bottom — and turn off the baseboard notch.
I turned everything on but still get no Axilo legs in Mozaik — why?
There is probably a leg override on that specific product set to No. Open the product, find the override, delete it, and the legs return.
