Many homes are short on closet space. If your home has reach in closets, then you know exactly what we're talking about! Reach in closets can be long, but are often shallow. This can mean that the actual usable square footage of the closet is really not that much. Or, the arrangement of the closet is simply inconvenient and hard to organize. Use these tips that we've collected from master organizers to help you turn that small, reach in closet into an organized area that is easy to use and maybe most importantly, easy to keep organized once you get it that way.
1) Measure your closet. Sometimes you will find more space than you think. Most ceilings are between eight and nine feet. Most reach in closets are eight feet long and four feet deep. If you have eight foot ceilings, that gives you two-hundred and fifty six feet of space.
2) If you have eight foot ceilings that give you two-hundred and fifty six feet of space. Or nine foot ceilings, you will have two-hundred eighty eight feet of space. The general design of these wardrobes was intended to help you keep a very large bedroom while still having enough space.
3) Draw up a design, shop for closet organizers, and look online to get ideas for what would work best in your closet. There are many closet systems, even solid wood and cedar ones that can be purchased one section at a time. This can help you to buy a little at a time so that you can afford the best system for your closet. It can also help you to figure out which sections you would like more of. Adjustable shelving is really useful for changing out your seasonal wardrobes and making the system work well year-round.
4) Calculate how many items will work well on shelves. You may not need to hang everything. Install your shelves a little deep so you will have more space at the back. You can install a riser on a shelf to lift up things that are too far back to easily see. Move the hanging bar back into the closet therefore you can install shelving to the front. The top shelf can be raised enough to hang many hanging bars, even with an eight foot ceiling. Use slim clothes hangers such as wood hangers.
