Closet Layouts design is critical to maximizing the efficiency of
your storage spaces. For every given storage space there are
literally hundreds design options available. Using computer
aided design software (CAD) finding the closet layouts that
meets the needs of your home or business is relatively easy.  A
quick check online will provide you with lots of design ideas.
Most of the top closet design and installation companies
provide good online software that allows you to design your
storage area. Depending on your needs and budget you may
want to call in a closet layouts design specialist to assist you.

In the past closet layouts and construction were relatively
simple. You basically had one clothes pole or rod that ran the
length of the closet with a single shelf located above. If you
have ever been in any older home you have seen these age
old designs.  When in use these closets have the top shelve
full of boxes and on the floor is a mixture of footwear, boxes
and bags of clothing. The clothes pole is full from wall to wall
with very little organization.  Any clothing removed from the
closet looks just awful with wrinkles and stretched fabric.
These old closets were fine back when most people had few
clothes and only one or two pairs of shoes and boots.

Today’s closet layouts reflects the changes in our lifestyles.
Analyzing what you are going to store in your closet or
storage area is a critical first step in any design. Obviously
storage areas for a business, home, basement or garage are all
going to have different requirements.

Never the less there are still just two basic types of closet
layouts. The “reach in closet” consists of a single wall layout
that can be accessed from outside the closet simply by
opening the closet door or doors.  All shelves and/or clothes
poles are located along the back wall of the storage area or
closet. Reach in closets are the most common closet found in
any home or office. Again maximizing the efficiency of this
space requires you to itemize all the possible items that would
be stored within the storage space.

Walk-in closets come in many different size and shapes.  The
largest walk-in closet layouts allow for at least 3 walls of
shelving and clothes poles.  In general well designed U-
shaped closets and storage are very efficient in maximizing
space. Proper design and installation of a walk-in closet will
most often require the expertise of a closet or storage space
specialist or contractor.

Locating the closet layouts expertise that you need will
depend on where you live. One of the easiest places to find
assistance is you local home improvement store. Both Lowes
and Home Depot provide simple closet layouts design
assistance. They also have contractors that can install your
closet for you. If you live in an urban area most likely there will
be closet and storage space designers and contractors that
will provide you with the closet ideas and options that will
meet all your storage needs.
