5 Common Mistakes You’re Making in Your Closet
As experts in custom storage solutions, we’ve seen our fair share of closets. While everyone’s style is different, there are common mistakes that we see time and time again. From limited functionality to lost space, check out these 5 mistakes you might be making and learn how we can help.
Improper Shelving
While the price point may be appealing, wire shelving’s functionality is lacking. Items don’t sit well on wire racks, often tipping over or slipping through the cracks. Not to mention, the wires can leave indentations on your clothes, and with no ability to adjust these shelves, you could even miss out on valuable storage space.
Neglected Accessories
Whether you’re a man of many ties, a woman with countless accessories, or simply someone with a lot of stuff, clutter is inevitable without proper storage. When it comes to the right solution, ease of use is everything and it leads to easier organization. Specialized storage not only frees up drawer space but also keeps your accessories in good shape for future use.


Bulky Hangers
Bulky hangers may seem like a small issue, but they can quickly add up and take away valuable hanging space. With a wardrobe that’s always growing, the more space-saving solutions, the better. Consider slim hangers with a velvet coating to keep delicate items protected and in place.
Wasted Space
If you have a single hang rod in your closet, you may not be using your space to its fullest. By converting to a double-hang system, you can effectively double your storage. And don’t worry, this doesn’t mean sacrificing long-hanging storage entirely – there are still ways to incorporate it into your design for those longer items.
Unadaptable Designs
Your storage needs change over time, and your closet should adapt. This is why it’s important to opt for adjustable storage solutions tailored to your ever-changing needs and lifestyle. Be it for longer items in the winter, shorter in the summer, or a blossoming passion for dress shoes, having a space that can meet your needs means everything.
