Closet Organization Systems: Saving You From the Stress of Your Own Clutter

It’s a real treat to have large, open closets in your home or condo. But unless those closets are fitted with well-designed closet organization systems, they really aren’t being used to their maximum capability.

A professionally designed, built and installed closet organization system can transform your closets from mere wide open spaces to highly efficient storage spots that can make your life easier, save you time and money and create a wonderful feeling of contentment every time you open your closet door.

What’s the Purpose of a Professionally Designed Closet?

A closet organization system that is designed specifically for you and your belongings can make finding things faster than when you have to root around in a cluttered and disorganized space. Think about it. How much time have you wasted looking for a particular pair of shoes or a sweater or a blouse that just couldn’t be found before you had to leave for work in the morning?

A custom closet provides you with the tools to organize your shoes by style, color or function with a series of different storage methods such as flat shoe shelves for sneakers and everyday shoes; cubbies for sandals, flats and flip-flops; and slanted shoe shelves for heels.

Similarly, a custom closet takes into account how you like to store all of your other clothes. It can provide plenty of shelves and cubbies to help you store folded t-shirts, sweaters and dress shirts, as well as hanging storage so you can store dresses, suits and dress pants. Shelves or closed cabinets with glass door inserts can help you display your handbag collection, while drawers with velvet or finished birch inserts can help you keep jewelry and small clothing items organized. A professionally designed custom closet provides the right spot for all of your clothes, shoes and accessories.

What is Intelligent Closet Design?

Systems are comprised of various components, each designed to perform a specific function. When your closet is intelligently designed by a professional, everything you need to store is taken into consideration.

Here’s how it works: During your in-home consultation, a Designer will take a look at everything you’d like to store in your closet and ask you about your preferences and goals. The designer will take a close look at the space and make note of where windows, outlets, vents, returns, access panels and light switches are located—all of which can create design challenges. They can also make recommendations about lighting to help you illuminate your clothes, shoes and accessories.

Then, the Designer will create a custom closet design that makes the best use of space, incorporating exactly what needs to be stored and how you would like to organize it—drawers versus shelves; closed versus open cabinets; racks for ties, belts, scarves, necklaces and other accessories; drawers specifically outfitted to hold jewelry, lingerie, hosiery, underwear and socks. That’s intelligent closet design.
