Wire Closet Organizers
When you think about installing one or more closet organizers, you often don’t think of using
wire. The fact is, though, a lot of people choose wire closet organizers because they can be practical,
inexpensive, and when designed properly, they can look quite nice.
One of the nicest things about wire closet organizers is that they are made so you can easily
customize them to your own needs. You can buy wire racks for hanging, wire cubbies for shoes and sweaters,
wire shelving and even wire drawers. You can buy exactly the wire accessories that you need, and since its
wire, everything is easily attached together.
For wire shelving, shoe and sweater cubbies and drawers, you want close-knit meshing so that
nothing falls through. Of course, you also want all smooth connections and corners to avoid any snagging
problems. Good quality wire closet organizing products will always be designed with these things in
consideration.
When you are working with wire products for organizing your closet, a lot of things come
together to save you work. Shelves can have hanging racks built right into the bottom of them. Wire cubbies
and drawers can come in the same unit.
Large home stores such as Lowe’s or Home Depot are some of the best places to buy what you need
to put wire closet organizers together. You can purchase individual items such as wire shelving, which runs
at about $35 for a 5-foot long and 20-inch deep shelf. This can be strictly shelving, or shelving with a
hanging rack attached to the bottom. Wire cubbies and drawer systems can run you anywhere from less than $50
to a couple hundred dollars, depending on how many units you need. Of course, when you’re putting a wire
closet organizer together, you need to buy such things as brackets, runners and joint supports. Prices on
these hardware items are usually very reasonable.
A lot of people save themselves time and trouble by simply ordering wire closet organizer kits
online. Believe it or not, Rubbermaid sells these types of kits. These can run anywhere from $45 for a small
closet kit to $200 or more for a deluxe walk-in closet wire organizer kit. ClosetMaid sells a great wire
organizer kit that saves a tremendous amount of closet space for about $75. These kits come with everything
that you need to put them together, so there is no need to run out and get the brackets and
screws.
One of the best things about wire closet organizers is that they can last for
so long. Good, quality wire organizers are built to withstand a lot of weight and the normal wear and tear
through everyday use. If they are painted, the paint that is used is specifically designed to complement the
toughness of the metal that it is covering. Wire organizers can easily be added to or modified to fit
different closets, which isn’t always as easy with wood or hard plastic organizers. The benefits of this type
of closet organizer can be many, and for any homeowner looking for more closet space, they are worth
considering.
