I determined a long time ago that closet storage issues can be solved utilizing the exact same methodology which could be discovered within old fashion roll top desks. This pigeon holed system discovered in these items of furniture will optimize the vertical air space which will rise above the back surface of a desktop. You can expand the size of the pigeon hole for closet space and store just about all soft or hard clothes items you own.
The trick will be to make the organization slots the proper size. The objective will be to fill up the space in between the clothes and floor with as many slots as probable, yet make them big enough for them to become accessed without hurting your knuckles.
Over time, I've discovered that an ideal closet cubby hole includes one that's 9 inches wide, 6 inches high and 11-1/2 inches deep. They work for every standard slipper and shoe. Roller blades, work boots, and additional big footwear require an area that's a minimum of 10 inches wide and up to 12 inches high. The 11-1/2 inch depth will work for them, yet occasionally a portion of the larger item might project past the organizer's front.
The closet cubby organizers shouldn't be overly tall. As a matter of fact, I always attempt to have the top of the organizer stop around 8 inches under the bottom of the clothes that are hanging. The top of this cubby organizer will act as a shelf for helmets, boxes, or additional miscellaneous goods. It additionally saves on assembly time and material.
You must think ahead as you build the systems. Due to a normal closet having a door opening smaller than the interior width of an actual closet, you cannot make a large unit and place it within a normal closet. This organizer must be more than two pieces mated together while inside a closet. The portions could be the same size or one could be wider than another. You just have to be certain you could get every piece into the closet.
I like to utilize scrap 3/4 inch plywood for the closet cubby system. You could buy yellow pine or fir plywood which possesses one or two great veneer faces. However, even if a single side isn't so good, you'll rarely see the flaws as the cubby holes are filled up with gloves, shoes, hats, and so on. I utilize a thin screen stop molding which is 3/4 inch wide X 1/4 inch thick to conceal the coarse plywood edges of every divider. They must be nailed and glued to the plywood edge.
You could utilize thinner substances to make a closet organizer for shoe storage, yet it'll require a lot of talent to fasten these pieces with each other. If you nail inside the side of a divider to secure the horizontal shelf piece, the nail might miss the narrow target. If you rent or own a router, you could utilize a regular straight bit to develop a mortise channel for every shelf to fit within the vertical dividers. It's how I put together my closet cubby organizer for shoe storage.
