Walk-in closet shelving in Port St. Joe

Big Bend Services, Inc. supplies and installs wire shelving in Port St. Joe, ZIP code 32456, in new construction and in houses people have lived in for years. In a walk-in closet, several walls share the hanging, the shelves and the room you stand in, so the layout takes more thought than a single wall does.

Pantries, laundry rooms, garages, storage rooms and every other closet in the house are part of the same service. Call (850) 819-6031 or send the form with the address.

Start with the clothes

Sorting what hangs, what folds and what sits

  • Long clothes

    Dresses, long coats, robes and garment bags. These need a single rod with a clear drop of 60 inches or more.

  • Short clothes

    Shirts, blouses, jackets and slacks folded over a hanger. About 40 inches of drop is enough, so these can double hang.

  • Folded clothes

    Sweaters, jeans, T-shirts and gym clothes go on shelves with 8 to 12 inches between them.

  • Shoes

    Flats and sneakers sit on shelves 6 to 8 inches apart. Heels and ankle boots want 9 to 10 inches, and tall boots stand on the floor under long hanging.

  • Bags and luggage

    Bags and hats go on the top shelf, and suitcases fit on a deep top shelf or under long hanging where the clothes stop short.

Wall by wall

Laying out a Port St. Joe walk-in by its shape

Hangers stick out about 2 feet from the wall, so the shape of the closet decides which walls carry hanging and which carry shelves.

  • Long and narrow

    Hanging down one long side and shelves on the other keeps a clear path to the back.

  • Square

    A U of hanging and shelves on three walls, with the shelves for folded clothes on the back wall you see first.

  • Door in a corner

    The two walls away from the door carry the most, and the wall beside the door holds narrow shelving.

  • Sloped ceiling

    Under a roof slope, long hanging goes at the tall end and shelves or double hang at the low end.

  • L-shaped

    Hanging on the long leg and shelves on the short leg, with the inside corner kept for shelves rather than rod.

  • Window in the closet

    A window takes a wall out of play for tall shelving. Low shelves for shoes can run under it.

  • Walk-through closet

    A closet with a door at each end keeps a clear path between them, with hanging and shelves along the long walls.

The top shelf and older walk-ins

A shelf above every rod gives a ring of top storage around the closet for seasonal clothes and keepsake boxes.

In a house you already live in, the walk-in may have shelving that never fit the way you use it, and the new layout does not have to follow the old one. Tell us what bothers you about the closet now: not enough long hanging, shoes piled on the floor, a top shelf too high to use.

Linen and hall closets

Closets that hold different things over the years

When a closet's job changes, adjustable shelf-and-rail lets the shelves move with it instead of being replaced. Tell us what each closet holds now and what it may hold later.

  • Linen closet

    Shelves 10 to 14 inches apart for towels and sheets, with the floor left open for a hamper or vacuum.

  • Cleaning supplies

    A low shelf for cleaners and first aid supplies keeps them apart from the clean linens.

  • Hall closet

    A rod for coats with a shelf above, which can later become all shelves for games, gear or supplies.

  • Spare room closet

    Hanging for guests now and storage shelving later, reset on the same uprights.

  • Children's closets

    A low rod now and a higher one later on the same uprights, with a shelf for toys in between.

The rest of the house

Pantry, laundry, garage and storage rooms

These rooms can go on the same quote as the closets, with one price for the whole job.

  • Pantry

    Shelf levels for cans, boxes and small appliances.

  • Laundry room

    A shelf above the machines and a rail for hanging clothes.

  • Garage

    Wall shelving kept clear of the garage door, its tracks and the opener.

  • Linen overflow

    If the linen closet is small, a shelf of spare bedding in the walk-in or a storage room takes the extra.

  • Storage room

    Shelves around the walls with the middle of the room left open.

  • Reach-in closets

    A shelf and rod, or two rods stacked for shirts and slacks, in the bedrooms without a walk-in.

  • Utility room

    Shelves on the walls around a water heater or air handler, with the fronts left open.

FAQ

Port St. Joe closet shelving questions

Have another question? Call (850) 819-6031.

What about a light or a switch inside the closet?
Tell us where they are. Shelves and rods are placed so the switch stays reachable and the light is not hidden behind a top shelf.
Is there room for a hamper in a walk-in?
Yes. A gap in the shelving at floor level near the door leaves space for one. It can sit under a short run of double hang, where laundry comes off straight into it.
Can a walk-in closet have adjustable shelving?
Yes. On shelf-and-rail, rods and shelves hang on the same uprights, so a wall of double hang can become shelves later, or the other way round. Shoe shelves can move for boots in one season and flats in the next.
Can the job include a business property?
Yes. We work for commercial customers too, from stockrooms to office supply closets.
How do two people share a walk-in?
Each can have their own wall, or one wall can be split down the middle. Say roughly how much each person hangs and folds.
