Big Bend Services, Inc. installs wire shelving at Cottondale addresses in ZIP code 32431, including walk-in closets, reach-in closets, pantries, laundry rooms, garages, and utility and storage rooms. A walk-in has several walls to plan, so it takes more thought than a reach-in.

Walk-in layout
Planning a walk-in closet wall by wall
In a walk-in, each wall gets a different job. Deciding those jobs first keeps long coats off the floor and shoes out of a pile in the corner.
The long-hang wall
A single rod for dresses, robes and long coats, with a shelf above it, on the wall with the most open length.
The double-hang wall
Two rods, one over the other, for shirts, blouses and folded pants. This fits the most clothing per foot.
The shelf wall
Stacked shelves for sweaters, jeans, bags and shoes, with the shoe shelves spaced close together so no height is wasted.
The corners
Where two runs meet, one shelf passes over the other so the hangers on each wall do not collide.
The door and the light
Shelving starts past the door swing, and the top shelf stays below the ceiling light.
Hanging lengths and the aisle
Clothes decide the rod heights. Shirts and jackets hang roughly three feet from the rod, pants folded over a hanger a little less, and dresses and long coats five feet or more. In a double-hang section, the lower rod near forty inches keeps shirts off the floor, and the upper rod sits high enough that the lower row does not brush the clothes above.
Leave enough open floor in the middle to walk in, turn around and set down a hamper.
Walk-in details
Smaller choices that shape a walk-in
A spot for the hamper
A gap in the lowest level on one wall gives a hamper or laundry basket a home off the walkway.
A window in the closet
Shelving stops at the window frame or runs below the sill, so the window can still open.
Belts, ties and scarves
A short rod at the end of a run keeps small hanging things together and out of the main rows.
A clear wall for a mirror
One section of wall left open makes room for a full-length mirror or a bench.
Shapes
Walk-in shapes and how each is shelved
Straight
Shelving on one long wall, with the rest of the room left as the aisle.
L-shaped
Two walls meeting at a corner, with long hang on one and double hang or shelves on the other.
U-shaped
Three walls, which needs the widest room so the aisle between facing runs stays usable.
Attic hatches, vents and switches in a walk-in
An attic hatch in the ceiling needs shelving to stop short of it so the opening stays usable. An air return or vent on the wall keeps its face clear so air can move. A light switch just inside the door stays within reach, with the first shelf starting beside it rather than in front of it.
Storage walk-ins
A walk-in used for storage instead of clothes
All shelves
Shelving on every wall at even spacing for bins, luggage and boxed keepsakes, with no rod at all.
Half and half
Hanging on one wall for coats and garment bags, and shelves on the others for storage.
A seasonal closet
Deep shelves for winter bedding and holiday bins, with a short rod for out-of-season coats.
A closet for a home business
Shelves spaced for product boxes, mailers and supplies, with a clear wall for a folding table.
Sharing a walk-in between two people
A closet shared by two people can be split by wall or by section. One side might be mostly double hang and the other mostly long hang, with a shared stack of shelves in the middle for shoes and folded clothes.
If one person is noticeably taller or shorter, the rod heights on each side can differ. A rod a few inches lower on one side is easier to reach every day, and the shelf above it drops with it.
One quote
One room or the whole house
One room or every room in the house goes on one written quote, and we supply the shelves, rods, brackets and rails, so there are no parts for you to buy or collect.
Kitchen and laundry
A pantry with levels for cans, boxes and small appliances, and a laundry shelf over the machines with a rail for hanging.
Garage and storage rooms
Wall shelving kept clear of the door track, the opener and the water heater.
