My custom closet came with a beautiful modern stainless steel ladder. The company was called Visser Closets library ladder

Plywood is not so good for products and construction in the south where humidity is high. We have had problems with warping in the past and prefer to use particle board. This is particularly true in bathrooms and kitchens.custom closets

I am a closet installer and have been using the same DeWalt cordless drill like one shown in photo since early 1990's. It still works like new and shows no signs of quitting.

This seems a little gimmicky to me. The fumes exuded from newly manufactured and varnished furniture dissipate quickly over time.

Yeah that's a nice closet but I'm not a big fan of the thin particle board shelf systems. I ordered a closet from speedy closets because they use thick modern looking shelves and the cabinets come pre-assembled. It was about 1/3 the cost california closets quoted me and they delivered it about 4 days after I placed the order.

I order my closets from speedy closets for about 1/3 of what california closets quoted me. The closet systems come pre-assembled and I received the shipment 4 days after I place the order.

I'm not crazy about the wasted space either. I would try a modular closet system that has some flexibility. There is a site called speedy closets that offers pre-assembled systems they deliver to you.

Wow! that is one ugly closet. The problem with utilizing the verticle space in this closet is the limited depth. I have a similar problem in my Miami loft. I found pre-assembled closet cabinets at a store called Speedy Closets and stacked them to use all my 12 ft. height. One of their designer helped me create a design where I use the top tier for less used items (since I need a step ladder to reach them).

Great concept but I don't have the patience for assembling. I ordered my reach-in closet online at Speedy Closets and the cabinets came pre-assembled.

All the particle board furniture smells like chemicals when it comes out of the box. The company I work for Speedy Closets doesn't use particle board. These systems are made of MDF on a wood frame.

I had to toss a beatiful old gas stove in mint condition a few years ago in a house I was restoring. My gas company would'nt connect just because they said it was a safety hazard. I, as always was willing to forego safety for the sake of form.

Love this concept. Whenever, I have something done locally it takes forever and costs more than the worst case scenario I had in mind.

Check out Speedy Closets they have white cabinets and shelving in a variety of styles that might work.

Wood on walls makes for nice photo but I wonder if the dark color makes a small space feel even smaller. I tried to avoid dark colors in my small Miami loft for that reason.

I love BBB but not happy to see comment about treatment of employees. Retail has always been one step up from indentured servitude, but come on.
