Custom closets can help homeowners optimize their space, allowing them to strategically use this often-cluttered area of the home in an organized fashion. To assure the greatest fit for your needs, it’s helpful to consider a few key factors before having a customized solution installed in your home. As Covington, KY’s leaders in home organization, Cincinnati Closets® is here with some helpful considerations.

What to Consider Before Installing a Custom Closet

1. Wardrobe

First and foremost, assess your entire wardrobe. If you are sharing the space with a partner, consider their wardrobe, too. Don’t think about strictly clothing, either; also account for shoes and accessories. Consider what you wear most often, and which items are seldom used. Also, think about which items you prefer to fold and stack versus those you should hang.

2. Presentation

Do you intend to use every inch of your custom closet, or would you prefer some free space for moving items about with ease? Are you a perfectionist who will prefer to have items color-coordinated and grouped together, or do you tend to be less organized? Stand in front of your existing closet and envision how you’d like your clothes to be displayed. Features like lighting and organizers can also be added to enhance its appearance.

3. Accessibility

Finally, think about ease of access. Do you have a hectic schedule and routinely find yourself reaching for work clothing and exercise gear? Or, can you take your time when selecting outfits? Some individuals can keep their clothing and accessories hidden behind doors, but others need to grab items quickly and may need everything to be visible as soon as they walk in. Also, consider how you’d like to store off-season clothing and accessories: either right alongside your in-season pieces or put away somewhere separately.
