If you have taken the time to invest in
organizing your closet, congratulations. Most of us think about it, but we
don’t get around to doing it. Once you have sorted through everything and decided
on the types of organizing materials to add to your closet, you are about half
way done with the project. Installing the custom closet organizer system is the
next part of the project for you to tackle. You have the option of having
someone install it for you or to do it yourself.
If you hire someone to install the custom
closet organizer system for you, make sure they are skilled in this area. You
can hire a professional, a friend, or a family member to complete it for you.
Make sure you have discussed everything thoroughly before they begin including
how you want the closet area to look, the deadline for completing the project,
if you will provide the tools or they need to bring their own, and the amount
you will pay for the finished project. You can choose to pay by the hour or a
flat rate for the entire project.
You will save money if you are willing to
install your custom closet yourself. It is a good idea to ask someone to lend
you a hand. This makes installing and leveling much easier with an extra pair
of hands in there. It is important to only use the right tools. Most custom
closet products can be installed using basic tools including a flat head
screwdriver, a Phillips head screwdriver, a level, a hammer, and a drill. It
works best if you have a cordless drill. I power screwdriver helps too as it
will ensure all the screws are in place securely.
Before you begin putting the custom closet
products together, take a few minutes to make sure all of the required parts to
do so are there as well as the instruction manual. All of the necessary parts
for the materials will be listed in the instruction manual. If you are missing
any parts you have two options, contact the customer service for the
manufacturer or go to the hardware store and purchase the missing parts yourself
if it something like screws that they will have in stock.
Next read through your instruction manual.
Do this before you start putting anything together. If you don’t understand any
part of it, ask the person assisting you to read over it. You can also look the
information up on the internet or contact the customer service support team for
the manufacturer.
If you are using a closet organizer kit,
then make sure you follow the instructions for the proper order of installing
the pieces. This is because some of them fit together in a particular way. If
you purchased separate pieces of closet organizers, install them from the
bottom up. It is also a good idea to have each area for the particular item
outlined so that you are positive not to put it in the area designated for
another closet organizing product. If this happens you will find yourself
having to take some of the products out and reinstalling them.
It is important that you adjust things as
necessary. If you don’t have any studs to attach the closet organization
products to, it is a good idea to add wall anchors and braces to give the
products added support. For the best results, purchase quality items from your
home improvement store.
For the best results, take your time
installing the custom closet accessories and products. Make sure each item is
level before you secure it in place. Following these installation tips will
help you transform your closet into a well organized area. Once you clean up
the work area, the fun will begin. You are going to be very excited as you
start putting your items back into the closet because of how great everything
looks!
