Closet Systems

Installing a closet system is a great winter project.  If you are hiring a company to install your closet system, call now to get on their schedule.  This is their busiest time of year.  If you are installing it yourself, it makes for a very manageable weekend project.  Whether your closet is large or small, a closet system can make a huge difference in your ability to find what you are looking for, the time you spend looking for an item, and the volume that you can reasonably fit in your closet.

Closet systems can be made out of a number of materials, including wire, coated wire, laminate, wood or plastic.  Wire is typically the least expensive, and wood is the strongest and most expensive.  You need to consider your budget, personal style, and use when choosing a material.

Regardless of which material you choose, most closet systems have different drawers, cubbies, shelves, and bars to choose from.  These options allow you to group like items in your closet together for easier retrieval and return.  Before you get started, it is important to sort through and get rid of items you no longer need so that you can plan your closet system to work for you going forward.  For example, you don’t want to purchase a large number of shoe cubbies only to discover that you are donating half your shoes.  On the other hand, you want to make sure that you plan for some growth.  If you currently have ten pair of shoes that you use regularly, you will want to plan for a couple of extra shoe cubbies if space allows.  A Closet System Designer or a Professional Organizer can help you plan and design your closet system to best fit your style and maximize your space.

Start the New Year off right – transform your closet into a stylish and functional space that you can enjoy!
