Custom Closet Shelf Layouts

When it comes to closet space, the design matters more than the square footage. If your closet isn’t designed with shelving, hanging rods, and drawers that fit your individual needs and lifestyle, it may never feel spacious or organized. A custom closet is a built-in closet layout system that includes the accessories you need to organize clothing, shoes, dirty laundry, jewelry, and handbags. Customization includes a combination of rods, shelves, drawers, baskets, and other features and accessories to make your closet a great space to store the things you wear. A custom closet layout differs from a regular closet in that it is specifically designed to fit the storage needs of the owner. There are several different types of closets: a walk-in closet is large enough to walk inside; a reach-in closet is a small rectangular room with a door; and a freestanding closet is a cupboard, wardrobe, or shelving unit used for clothing. Our skilled designers at ShelfGenie® will help you create a closet solution with shelf design ideas tailored to your specific needs.

Why Choose a Custom Closet Shelf Design Over Ready-Made Options?

A custom closet is designed to fit your wardrobe and lifestyle with shelves and rods that are moveable, creating a range of closet configurations. Lifestyles and wardrobes change throughout the years based on our positions in lives and careers. Therefore, it is important to create a custom closet that can adjust accordingly.

Ready-made closet systems purchased at large retailers offer homeowners a one-size-fits-all design. These closets fulfill the basic function of storing clothing. Custom closets, on the other hand, will be designed with your specific belongings, preferences, and style in mind.

The Benefits of Custom Closet Shelf Designs

Custom closets are great for taking advantage of otherwise unused places such as the corners of a room. ShelfGenie designers maximize every bit of space in your closet with innovative shelf design ideas.

In a custom closet, quite a selection of storage options and accessories exists, such as pull-out trays for storing glasses, watches, jewelry, and other small, delicate items, or built-ins such as pull-out hampers or shoe fences. Other pull-out accessories include:

Sweater cubbies

Pant racks

Suitcase storage

Jewelry drawers

Wire baskets

Shoe racks

Hamper baskets

LED lighting

Tie/belt racks

Designing a Custom Closet Shelf Layout for Your Space

A custom closet done well to suit a customer's exact storage needs should elicit happiness. This closet is a space where you will want to spend time. When creating a custom shelf design, ask yourself a few questions:

What kind of clothing and accessories am I storing?

Which shelf layout would be most practical for my needs?

What do I want to see each time I open the closet?

ShelfGenie offers custom shelf designs for different kinds of closets, including walk-in closets, reach-in closets, and freestanding closets.
