Walk in closet design mistakes

• Here's a standard closet with lots of wasted space.  If you don't program your closet, this is the arrangement that the builder is likely to give y'all.  A i height, non-adjustable closet rod and if you're lucky y'all might get a shelf.  In that location's lots of wasted space at the bottom of the closet.

• Here's a closet where almost of the hanging space is hidden behind the wall to the cupboard.  This closet would exist fine if it was fitted with doors that opened the total span of the rod.

Closet where the hanging infinite is obstructed by the wall

• If the rod is installed also close to the shelf, it's impossible to hang anything upwardly.

If the rod is installed too shut to the shelf it's impossible to hang anything up

• Hither'south a rod that's too close to the doorway.  Y'all can see how the hanging rod itself doesn't interfere with the doorway but once there are clothes hanging on the rail they interlope into the doorway.  If the door opens inwards into the closet this prevents the door being opened and closed.

In this closet the rod is too shut to the doorway

• Now imagine that door is a set of shelves.  See how the hangars are interfering with the shelf space.

Here the rod is too close to the shelves

• Here'southward a design where the rods come into the corner.  This is another case where the location of the hanging bars looks fine until the hangars are introduced.  In the corner the hangers are occupying the same space.

Hangars fight for infinite where rods meet in a corner

• How deep are your cupboard shelves and drawers in your walk in closet blueprint?  Shelves and drawers that are too deep are annoying in a closet because the items that are at the back of the shelf or the drawer are not accessible enough unless addressed by smart storage solutions.  The pattern a closet page shows you how to avoid these problems.
