Absolutely! Most closets only have a single bar and shelf in them which is a major waste of square footage. A properly designed closet system can triple or double your usable storage space. This is accomplished by double hanging the short garments and providing a place for folded garments along with long clothes. Your planning is very important to the final design. You need to think about how you intend to use the closet. Many people have everything in the closet but the kitchen sink, our designer needs to know what your plans are so they can be sure to design a storage system that will work right for YOU.

How much will it cost?

Unfortunately this is a very hard question to answer without first seeing your closet space and having an understanding of what your needs are. I wish we could just pull a number out of our hat but that would be very misleading to you. What effects the cost of a closet is the size of the space, the type of materials used and the accessories included in the design. Our policy is to provide a free in-home estimate and quote the job if possible at that time.

What kind of material is best?

The closet companies that only sell one type of shelving will tell you that their system is best. Because we carry three styles of shelving we can be more objective while meeting a number of needs. Cost aside, some materials are simply better than others depending on where they are going to be used, i.e., small closet, large walk-in closet, basement, pantry, garage, etc. There are three basic closet materials being use in our industry today. They are: laminated wood, ventilated steel and ventilated or solid hard wood. You and our  designer will assess your needs including your budget and select the material that meets all of these factors.

What is the best style of door to have on a closet?

There are only three styles of doors used on closets: sliding or by-pass, by-fold and swing door. The amount of floor space available has a lot to do with the door selection as does the cost factor. Most reach-in closets have by-pass doors on them, and some have by-fold and few have swing doors. We prefer to see swing doors whenever possible, then by-fold and lastly sliding doors. Let me explain each.

The goal of any closet is to be able to access your clothing. Swing doors when open provides the greatest clear space available, but they also require more open floor space in-order to swing open. By-fold doors open almost as much as swing door but when open all the way they take up about 6" on each side of the closet opening, but they require very little floor space. Sliding doors never allow you to see more than half of your closet at a time.  You always have to move them back and forth to get to your things on the one side or the other. Whenever possible the door on a walk-in closet should swing out, NOT into the closet.

How long does it take to install a closet system?

Depending on the size and complexity of the design we can usually have a job finished within one day.

How long does it take to do an estimate?
