There’s no excuse for having a closet jammed full of your stuff, because wire storage components are readily available and easy to install. Add a few roll-out baskets, drawers and racks, and you’ll be surprised at how you can create order and organization to a closet. The components are sold in a wide range of sizes and custom configurations in off-the-shelf boxed kits and as individual components, in home centers, hardware stores and online.
The most difficult part of the job is not the installation; it’s emptying the closet and sorting what to keep, what to give away and what to pitch. When you’re planning the project, allow enough time to go through this pruning process. If the closet walls need painting, do it when the space is empty before installing new shelving.
