Q: How much space should be between closet shelves?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How should I secure DIY home office built-ins to the wall?

• <div><p>When you are securing your DIY home office built-ins to the wall, you should start by<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-find-stud-in-wall.htm"> locating the wall studs</a>. You'll then want to use long screws to attach the cabinets, shelves, and bookcases directly to the wall studs. Your built-ins will be far too heavy to attach to the drywall alone by using anchors.</p></div>

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 materials are used for custom closets?

• <div><p>Common materials include wood, laminate, and wire. Choose based on durability, style, and budget.</p></div>

Q: Can I stack packed boxes?

• <div><p>Since they are so fragile, it is not usually recommended to stack anything on top of your packed lamps. If you have sturdy boxes, and what you plan to put on top of them is of a similar weight, it&rsquo;s okay to stack.</p></div>

"I started the remodel myself and made a mess of a few things but Cougar Development Corp was able to repair my mistakes and give us a finished product that we can be happy to have our guests use. The vanity and shelving look amazing and the trim work done throughout is fantastic. At the end of the project I even requested caulking throughout to prepare for the paint due to my lack of equipment and they did it quickly and perfectly.
