When it comes to maximizing the space in your closet, it’s all about optimizing what you have and using every available square inch of room. Custom closets are designed with this principle in mind.
You might look at your current closet and think there’s no way installing a new custom closet could increase your available storage space, but that’s just not the case. We’re going to explore clever ways that custom closets can provide more room for you in your home.
Custom closets provide so much space by doing these important things:
Now that we’ve got an idea of how custom closets provide more space, let’s get into the specifics and see how you can take advantage.
As Martha Stewart notes, a closet without a proper organization strategy will quickly become overrun with mess and clutter. One clever way to help alleviate this problem is by installing double hanging rods.
In one simple step, this will double your available hanging storage, giving you the opportunity to separate clothes by season, use, or just about any other category you can think of. This will help alleviate some of the strain with both folding and long-term storage for you.
Let’s face it: most standard closets are not equipped with everything a modern homeowner needs to keep their space in order. Your original closet drawers and cabinets might not cut it, but custom ones can.
Designed with space optimization in mind, these tools can work wonders in giving you back space that you didn’t even know you had in your closet. With more folding storage, you can even bring garments back into rotation that had been sitting it out for months.
When your closet floor is cluttered, it can feel almost impossible to get anything in the space organized. One of the biggest culprits for a disorganized closet floor is a large shoe collection. Shoes can pile up fast, and without a system in place, you’ll be left wondering what to do.
Shoe racks solve this problem by using verticality to their advantage. Instead of spreading all your pairs along the surface of the floor, you can stack them in nice racks that will give your closet an elegant look and make it easy to find the pair you’re looking for in a pinch.
You’d be surprised by how much room ties and scarves take up in the average closet. If you were to take all of them out of your closet today, you’d likely have enough room for another shelf’s worth of garments.
This is especially obvious for those who hang them up on their hanging rod, as they’re losing hanging space that could be used for extra outfits. Dedicated hooks and racks give you this space back while still offering a home for all of your ties and scarves.
Your walls offer a treasure trove of storage space, but most standard closets don’t take advantage of this valuable real estate. To help with this, you can opt to have wall hooks installed as well as wall-mounted shelving units.
When used together, these will give you a great deal of storage space back that you can then use to bring in more garments or other items.
If you’re looking at your current closet space and scratching your head as to how you might be able to fit more in with a custom closet, you’re not alone. But these super simple ideas can make even the smallest closet footprint accommodate a much larger custom closet.
There was a time not too long ago, when closet organizers, custom closets, and closet systems were only for those who could afford a custom closet design. Fortunately, Connecticut Closets and Garages, LLC has found a way to make these luxuries affordable.
