My Closets Are Too Small!

This is a refrain commonly heard from homeowners. If you look around your home, what would your biggest complaint be? If your answer is that you don’t have enough storage space to contain all of your belongings, you aren’t alone! Depending on where you live, you may enjoy walk-in closets, large closets in every bedroom, attic space, a storage area in your garage, a backyard shed, a basement… or only one or two of these. Older homes in particular often lack for adequate closet space, but even newer homes sometimes don’t have all of the space that you would want for storage. If you have considered having custom closets installed but thought that your storage areas were too small to bother, here are some reasons why you should reconsider.

If you have large, sprawling closets, then it doesn’t really matter if there is too much space between the shelving or if you only have one very long clothing rod. When you are trying to store a lot of items in a smaller space, however, your closet real estate needs to be maximized. A custom closet company knows just how to do this: From placing shelves at the optimal distance from one another, to making sure that you have enough rods at the right heights to accommodate a variety of clothing, a professional’s touch can really make a big difference.

When you have looked at homes, what was one of the first things you looked at? Right, the closets and storage space. If and when the time comes for you to sell, you might find that a lack of roomy closet space is a detriment when potential buyers compare your home with others in its price range. Custom closets, however, will add value that those with larger closets might not have. When would-be buyers see everything that you’re able to fit in your own customized closet, they’ll begin to imagine their own belongings fitting… and that could very well win you the sale!

These home organization experts don’t only focus on your closets: They can also add storage solutions to your pantry, your home office, your guest room, and more. So in addition to opening up storage space in your master closet, you might have your linen closet customized to hold off-season clothing along with your linens, for example. While the professional is there, they can also give you some tips for keeping everything well-organized, which is another great way to make the most of the storage space that you do have.

One great thing about having custom closets installed in your home is that the consultation appointment is free and comes with no obligation. Even if you think that your current closets are too small, having a custom closet professional come in and show you a design that can help you is the first step toward gaining more control over your storage areas, reducing your stress level and adding to your home’s value in the process.
