"Abram is simply the best! His attention to detail is incredible, he is highly skilled and he is immaculate - always cleans up after himself. (Something most other subcontractors did not do). He did more than just the cabinets in our new house - he installed our custom bookcases, desk and file drawers in our office (which takes up an entire wall), custom floor to ceiling entertainment center in our great room, baseboards, doors, door knobs, towel bars, hooks, shower curtain rod, rod for clothes in laundry room, mirrors, and more throughout our new house. Abram takes pride in his work and it shows. He truly has a God-given talent and is a true craftsman. We highly recommend Abram."

Closets questions, answered by experts

The vertical space between closet shelves depends on what you're storing. For clothing like shirts and sweaters, 10 to 12 inches is enough. Towels and linens need 12 to 15 inches, while tall storage bins may require 18 inches or more. Overcrowding your shelves can reduce accessibility and increase clutter, so be sure to leave breathing room for your items.

Built-in furniture maximizes space, offers a tailored look, and enhances room functionality.

If you have a bathroom closet with movable shelves, you can place them at virtually any spacing that works for you. Useful measurements between shelves in the working, or middle, section can be 10 to 16 inches for towels or linens. Lower or higher shelving could be up to 24 inches between shelves to store lesser-used or bulky items or boxes. 

You can design your own closet, but it’s usually better to hire a professional to do the work for you. Not only will you get years of design experience to guide you toward the right layout and material choices, but you’ll also only pay slightly more hiring a professional than you would creating your own plans and hiring a carpenter. A high-quality closet designer can provide insight into how to lay out your closet, and they may be able to find you a good deal on the carpentry or complete the work using an affordable, in-house team.

A standard walk-in closet has dimensions of 7 feet by 10 feet at a minimum and an average of 100 square feet. Remember that the dimensions of the closet aren’t necessarily the usable space. This means that a 100-square-foot walk-in closet with shelves on each wall and an island may only have a walkable area of 50 square feet or less. Make sure you consider the effect of additions when you plan the room—mockups are a great idea.
