How Does the Process of Getting a Custom Closet Work?

George Chowanec • Feb 05, 2014

Many of our potential clients call with questions, and we certainly welcome them! If you are considering having a custom closet installed in your home, then you probably have questions and concerns. It’s our job to answer those questions to help you determine whether a customized storage solution is something that you want to pursue.

One of the questions that we get quite often is about the process of having a custom closet designed, built and installed. Here is a description of the process, from start to finish:

1. Consultation

We start off with a free consultation, where we come to your home, take measurements, show you some examples of our work and answer your questions. During this appointment, which takes an hour or two most of the time, we will usually be able to use our special software to design your custom closet. You’ll have the opportunity to approve the design or request changes, and from there, we’ll give you a price quote.

2. Building Process

Over the next several weeks, we will be busily building your closet! We use 45-lb commercial grade particleboard and MDF, and all of the wood products are coated with a thermal-fused melamine. Remember, it’s all built to your exact specifications, so you know that it will fit perfectly. This process can take approximately three to four weeks.

3. Installation

Depending on your needs, we might come the day before your installation appointment to remove your old closet organizers. We will need you to remove your belongings before this, and it’s a great time for you to purge your closet, getting rid of whatever you don’t want to continue storing. On the day of your installation, we will normally be there between a half day and a full day. Bigger projects might require more than one day, but we can advise you of this when we schedule the appointment.

4. Enjoyment

Once your closet system is installed, we will wipe it down and you’ll be all set! We’ll demonstrate how to use any parts of your new system that you aren’t sure of, and we’ll be able to answer any questions that you have. Now is the time that you can put back your belongings and enjoy having a clean, clutter-free closet that is easy to maintain and that you’ll want to show off to your friends!

The first step is that free consultation, so if you are ready to get the process started, give us a call to schedule your appointment. Within a month, you can be enjoying your new storage solution. Remember, if you have any questions at any point of the process, we’re only a phone call away!
