If you're thinking about giving your closet a makeover, you might want to consider getting some custom closet cabinets. These systems are custom-installed and usually designed by someone who works for the company that makes or sells these systems.
Your closet will be measured by the designer or by a measuring specialist. Afterwards, they will go back to their office where they will start a closet design that will suit your needs.
These designs often have a small fee associated with them, but the cost of the product does usually include installation.
Closet cabinetry systems have dozens of options available for the space. Of course, there is hanging space both for short and long garments, and flat shelf space.
You'll also have shoe options, which might include flat or tilted shelves, or even gliding racks. Hanging areas will be placed at the perfect height, and all the extra space will be maximized with shelving.
The final design will often incorporate drawers. You want a designer who will work with you and ask questions to learn what you need most from your closet space.
There is one drawback with all this: By installing closet cabinets, the little space will feel even smaller than usual. There are ways to work around this, such as installing extra lighting.
Sometimes, the closet designer will be able to include this, but other times, you will need to do it yourself or hire an electrician. Be sure to bring up any concerns about this with your closet designer.
Closet cabinets come in a variety of materials and finishes. From melamine to hardwood and white to walnut, you have the choice of many different looks.
Remember to purchase new hangers to complement your new closet system. Otherwise, it will look very funny with that mix of pastel hangers from high school!
Once you and your closet designer agree on a design, you can schedule the installation.
Be sure to ask the designer if you will be expected to empty your own closet, or if that is included as part of the installation process. You will love your new closet cabinets!
