Q: What type of wood is best for closet shelves?

• <div><p>Plywood, MDF (medium-density fiberboard), and solid wood are all popular options for closet shelving. Plywood and solid wood are sturdy and ideal for extended shelves or heavy items. MDF is a budget-friendly choice for light to moderate storage, but it can sag under heavy weight if not adequately supported. Wire shelving is another alternative that allows airflow, making it especially useful in humid spaces such as laundry rooms or basements.</p></div>

Q: What are the different types of closets?

• <div><p>Different types of closets are defined mostly by size. A few different types of closets include:</p><ul><li><p>A reach-in closet is a smaller closet that you can stand in front of and reach everything inside it. Aside from the size, the doors and the level of drywall finish are typically the largest price factors. </p></li><li><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/turn-guest-bedroom-walk-closet.htm">walk-in closet</a> can be anything from a small 5-by-5 feet closet that has a narrow walkway with shelves on both sides to a 100 square foot bedroom-sized closet with shelving along the walls and plenty of room to move around in.</p></li><li><p>A built-in wardrobe often does not have a door and leaves the clothes and other contents open to the room, whereas a closet usually has a door to separate it from the rest of the room.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What do closet design services include?

Q: Why are custom closets so expensive?

• <div><p>There are a few reasons custom closets are expensive: materials used, the luxury factor, and time to build. The people who can afford custom closets are those who can afford increased rates, and construction workers and contractors know this and charge accordingly.

Q: Can I save money with wire shelves instead of wood shelves?

• <div><p>You can budget a little less money for how to build a closet with wire shelves than with wood shelves.
