How Our DIY Closets Work

The John Louis Home Solution

John Louis Home closet solutions were designed for the DIY’er in all of us. From a novice to expert anyone can do. It just takes time. The same way you would take a day to paint a room, it requires time to install a new closet. Installing a closet organizer will take the following tools: A pencil, level, tape measure, screw driver (preferably a battery powered screw gun) and a fine toothed saw for cutting shelves (preferably a chop saw or reciprocating saw). A buddy is always helpful but not necessary.

Before You Choose - What type of closet & door to do I have?

Your closet type and door type play a pivotal part in determining the John Louis Home organizer that is right for you. The most common type of bedroom closet is the Reach-in. Reach-in closets are typically 24in. or less in depth (although they can be greater than 24in.) and it is recommended to use a 12in. deep organizer to allow for easy access to top shelf storage. If the doors are floor to ceiling you can use either 12in. or 16in. depth organizers. It all depends on your preference.


Walk-in closets are as many sizes as you can think of. There is no set standard. When dealing with large closets, it’s your choice whether to use a 12in. or 16in. depth organizer. Just make sure to allow space so you can move around easily within the closet.

The Cut-To-Fit System & How It Works.
