Reach-in closet shelving in Grand Ridge

Big Bend Services, Inc. supplies and installs wire shelving at Grand Ridge addresses in ZIP code 32442. A reach-in, the bedroom or hall closet with a door on the front, comes down to a shelf, a rod and the space around them. Closet shelving that has sagged or come away from the wall can be replaced too, and walk-ins, pantries, laundry rooms, garages and storage rooms are part of the same service.

Reach the office on weekdays, 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM, at (850) 819-6031, or send the form. Our office is in Wewahitchka. Each job gets a written quote with one price.

Reach-in bedroom closet with a wire shelf and hanging rod

Setting the rod by what hangs on it

Start with the clothes. For a single rod, the rod goes about 66 inches off the floor, which clears long dresses and coats. For double hang, the upper rod goes near 80 inches and the lower one near 40, and each row of shirts, blouses and folded pants hangs clear of the one below.

A closet for a young child can start with the rod much lower, near 45 inches, so the child can hang and take down their own clothes. On adjustable shelf-and-rail, that rod moves up in steps as they grow.

Layouts

Reach-in closet layouts for bedrooms

The width of the closet and what you own pick the layout.

  • Double hang across the width

    Two rows of short hanging clothes, for a closet with mostly shirts and pants.

  • Split hang

    Long hang at one end for dresses and coats, double hang along the rest.

  • A shelf column

    A narrow stack of shelves at one end for folded sweaters, jeans and shoes, with hanging beside it.

  • A second top shelf

    In a closet with a tall ceiling, a higher shelf holds out-of-season clothes and spare blankets.

Doors, depth and the ends of the closet

The door shapes the layout. With a bypass sliding door, only half the closet is open at a time, so it helps to put hanging behind one panel and the shelf column behind the other. With bifold doors, the folded panels sit inside the opening and the shelf ends have to clear them.

The ends of a reach-in, behind the wall on each side of the opening, are hard to see and reach, and a shelf that runs into them is the place for things needed a few times a year. A closet too shallow for hangers to hang square is better used for shelves than for a rod.

In the way

Closets with something on the wall or ceiling

  • An attic hatch

    The shelf stops short of the hatch, so the opening can still be reached from a ladder.

  • An air return or vent

    The vent face stays clear, and shelving starts beside it rather than in front of it.

  • A light switch inside the closet

    The nearest shelf ends before the switch plate, so the switch stays easy to reach.

  • A sloped ceiling

    Each shelf is cut to fit its height, so the low end of the closet is still used.

Why wire

What wire shelving does in a closet

  • Air moves through

    Open wire lets air circulate around folded clothes on the top shelf.

  • Light reaches the rod

    The closet light shines through the shelf onto the hanging clothes below.

Sagging shelves

Replacing a closet shelf that sags or has pulled loose

When a rod bows under a winter of coats or a shelf lip tips forward, clothes slide to the middle and the shelf above them dips.

  • Support where the weight is

    A packed rod or a stack of jeans gets a shorter span between supports than a shelf of hats.

  • Same layout or a better one

    The new run can match what was there, or add a second rod or a shelf column while the closet is empty.

  • Rod and shelf as a set

    When the rod came down with the shelf, both are replaced together.

FAQ

Grand Ridge closet shelving questions

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

How much space goes between the shelf and the rod?
A few inches, enough to lift a hanger off the rod without the hook catching the shelf. More than that wastes height that could go to a second shelf.
Can a small dresser fit in a reach-in closet?
Yes, under short hanging. The rod is set high enough to clear the dresser top plus the length of the shirts, with room for the drawers to pull out past the door frame. Give us the height and depth of the dresser.
Our closet has a light fixture just above the shelf. Does that change anything?
The top shelf is set with room below the fixture so stored things do not sit against the bulb. If the fixture is very low, the shelf can drop a few inches.
Besides closets, what work do you take on?
Gutters, garage doors and openers, and blower door testing on newly built homes.
Do you shelve for builders and businesses?
Yes. Builders and commercial customers are both served.
