Reach-in closets in Brookhaven, planned for your room.
Many Brookhaven reach-ins date from ranch and split-level houses built when clothing collections were smaller, so the openings are narrow and the framing is fixed. Hinges, bifold panels and handles can eat into the sides of the opening, which is why they should be shown on the plan before any cabinet edge or drawer front is placed nearby.

What does a reach-in closet project cost?
Mark the garment types planned for each hanging section so the layout can be checked against what you really own.

Get my itemized quoteDo new closet fittings need different doors?
Not necessarily. Existing doors can be kept, but their hardware and travel decide which drawers and shelves will be usable behind them.
Can one reach-in hold both long and short hanging?
Yes, if the opening is wide enough. The split should come from your clothing, not from a standard ratio.

Brookhaven cabinet planning
Account for hinges and folding-door hardware
Retaining the doors may limit the best drawer position. Replacing doors is a separate scope decision, not an assumption built into an organizer quote. See the planning FAQ for questions about the ordering process.
Use garment length to divide hanging bays
A single full-height rail may leave unused space below shirts while longer clothing is crowded elsewhere. Separate the garment lengths before deciding where additional hanging levels would help.
Compare the alternatives
Additional hanging levels help only when the clothing fits them. A wardrobe dominated by long garments needs a different division. Use the concept gallery to describe a visual preference.
