When it comes to having closets in a home, it’s not necessarily how many closets you have, but how much efficiency you get from the closets you own. With a good storage strategy, whatever space you have is maximized and all your items are easily accessible. Closet organizers are the perfect accessories to turn any bland closet into efficient storage space.

If you want to get your closet organized quickly, then buying a ready-made closet organization system is the way to go. There are many accessories available ranging from simple units like wire baskets and plastic bins to some advanced designs like a sliding shelving unit or concealed vanity. The simplest closet organizer units are easy to install because little to no DIY work is required. More advanced drives will require you to do some work, but these drives have been designed with users in mind, so most of the work that needs to be done to install them isn’t too difficult. If DIY isn’t your thing, then most stores that sell closet organizing systems offer an installation service.

Remember to consider what it is you want to store in a particular closet before you rush out shopping for closet organizing accessories. Consider the hanging lengths of your clothing to see if you can implement a multi-tier hanger. If long clothing is involved, a shorter bottom hanger may be needed to make room for clothing hanging from the top. Calculate how many feet of hanging rods or shelving you will need. Keep in mind that drawers can be expensive, so you need to decide if an open shelf is acceptable or if you really need a drawer.

In addition to shopping for cabinet accessories that maximize storage space, you may also want to take a look at cabinet accessories that add functionality to your closet. There are concealed units such as mirrors that can be pulled out of the side of the closet wall. You can install small damping plugs that will prevent the cabinet doors from slamming when you close them. With modern closet organization systems available, updating your closet can really be an interesting experience.
