Maximize Storage in a REACH-IN CLOSET
REACH-IN CLOSETS often get a bad reputation for being ineffective for storing our clothes, but that’s not the final verdict on these closets.
From one-rod-and-shelf closets to sliding doors that block accessibility, it’s true that many reach-in closets aren’t very efficient. However, with intentional design, they can be transformed to maximize storage space that meet your specific needs.

Are hanging clothes a preference? Do you need more shelving for shoes or folded items? Elements like hanging rods, adjustable shelves, custom drawer sizes, and accessories combine to create the perfect system for you to manage every part of your wardrobe.
Double Your Hanging Space
With designated hanging spaces for long and short items, you can fit more in your closet in less space. Multiple hanging rods can create one section for long items like dresses, with other tiered rods that stack two up for hanging shorter items like blouses and pants. Gone is the one long rod that wastes storage space.
Eliminate Clutter with Drawers
Drawers are the secret weapon to eliminate constant clutter in a small closet. Drawers can store items that are small and easily misplaced, such as jewelry, socks, or underwear. Closet design options include drawers of varying depths. Deeper drawers can hold stacks of folded items. Shallow drawers are ideal for lingerie, belts, scarves, and other accessories. Specialty drawers like velvet-lined jewelry drawers protect and organize all your bling.
See the Shoes
Tired of playing hide-and-seek with your shoes that are always hiding on the floor? Dedicated, adjustable shelving displays shoes that are easily accessible. Since the shelves are adjustable, you can move them to fit any size shoe, even boots. If your clothes demand the entire closet, turn a bookcase, armoire, or cabinet into shoe storage in the bedroom or use under-bed storage.
Doors or No Doors
Who says a closet has to have a door? Sometimes removing the door for an open view may enhance accessibility, as well as create a modern, minimalist vibe. Other options could be a fabric curtain on a decorative rod, go boho with beads, or a barn-style door that slides to cover the opening. One advantage to a solid door that swings out is you can add storage to the inside of the door with decorative hooks. A full-length mirror also fits beautifully on a door so you can check that you always look as good as your new closet.
With The Tailored Closet, you can have your perfect reach-in closet with efficient storage solutions. Tailored Closet’s wide range of colors, finishes, and decorative hardware ensure you’ll have exactly the look you want because it’s tailored to your life.
