Closet Organizer Basics

By Kelly G. | Published: January 19, 2010

Are you stressed out in the morning with your same old routine? If so, installing a closet organizer can help tremendously. And, it doesn’t have to be a large walk-in for a closet organizer to be beneficial. Even the smallest of closets can be updated into a well organized storage system that will set your mind at ease.

Space that is normally wasted can be utilized as a good starting point. The key is how you use all the small spaces in your closet. If you are like most, when you open your closet, you’ll find a simple rod and shelf system. This really isn’t a system at all. The builder that built the home made them as a minimum requirement that was necessary to sell the home.

These two elements (shelves and rods) are actually the foundation of a closet organizer. You will have to remove the existing rod and shelf as they aren’t as efficient as they could be. A closet organization system includes multiple shelves and rods.

In fact, with closet organizers, you will easily be able to double the amount of storage space in any closet. An excellent illustration of this is to simply stack the rods on one side of the closet so you have an upper rod for your hanging shirts and a lower rod to hang your pants on.

A tower of shelves is almost essential for any closet organizer system. Look for shelving systems that have vertical tracks with slots that are inset on the insides of the tower shell. These slots accept clips that hold the shelves at whatever height you want. This makes for a very flexible system.

Another option you have with closet organizer systems is to place drawers instead of shelves in the tower. Its better to leave some shelves for stacking pants and shirts but it is possible to fill your whole unit with drawers. Some people like this look. But, if you leave some open, you can easily glance through your options for picking out your clothes. Drawers do make great holders for your smaller items like underwear and socks.

Another common component is a specialized rack or shelf made to hold your shoes. This will keep them nice and orderly and also off the floor.

We could all use a little less stress in our lives and we’ve barely scratched the surface on the topic of closet organizers. Hopefully, you will now have an understanding of how beneficial these systems can be.
