The whole house
Planning several rooms at once
Before you call, walk through the house and look at each room with storage in mind. A few notes per room are all we need to start.
What is on the floor
Piles on a closet floor, a garage floor or beside the washer show where shelving is missing.
What each room will hold
Clothes, food, cleaning supplies, tools or linens. The answer sets the spacing of the shelves.
Fixed or adjustable
Fixed shelves stay where they are put. Adjustable shelf-and-rail can be moved later, which helps in a room whose use may change.
Which rooms come first
If some rooms are more pressing, say so when you ask for the quote.
Room notes
What to jot down for each room
Bedroom closets
Who uses the closet, and whether their clothes are long, short or folded. A walk-in or a reach-in.
Pantry
The tallest box and the largest appliance you keep in it, and whether you buy in bulk.
Laundry room
Top-loading or front-loading washer, side by side or stacked, and whether there is a sink.
Garage
Which walls are open, where the cars park, and what you want off the floor.
Storage or utility room
What equipment is in it, such as a water heater, and what will be stored around it.
Easy to miss
Small closets to add to a whole-house quote
These smaller spaces hold a lot once they are shelved, and each takes only a short run of shelving.
Coat closet
A rod for coats and rain jackets, a shelf over it, and floor room for boots.
Bathroom linen closet
Close shelves for towels, toilet paper and bath supplies next to the room that uses them.
Under the stairs
Shelves that step down with the slope turn an awkward space into storage for cleaning supplies or games.
Guest room closet
Mostly shelves, with a short rod for a visitor and the rest of the wall for stored bedding and spare pillows.
Back entry wall
A short run of shelving by the back door gives shoes, bags and dog leashes a place before they reach the kitchen.
Laundry room
Laundry room shelving in Paxton
A laundry room shelf sits over machines that open, shake and need to be pulled out now and then. The shelf height is set by the washer and dryer under it.
Top-loading washer
The lid swings up, so the shelf above has to sit higher than the open lid. Measure from the floor to the top of the lid when it is fully open.
Front-loading machines
Nothing opens upward, so the shelf can sit lower and be easier to reach. Leave room to lift a basket onto the machine.
Hanging rail
A rail beside or under the shelf lets shirts go straight from the dryer onto hangers, before they wrinkle in the basket.
Vent and valves
The dryer vent and the water shutoff valves stay reachable, with no shelf directly in front of them.
Space beside the machines
A narrow gap between the dryer and the wall can take a tall stack of shelves for detergent, bleach and cleaning spray.
Room to pull the machines out
Keep the lowest shelf high enough, and any stack beside the machines far enough back, that each machine can slide straight out without hitting shelving.
A hanging rail over the dryer should also sit clear of the dryer top, so the dryer can be pulled forward with the rail left in place.
More than laundry
When the laundry room holds everything else too
A laundry room can end up holding cleaning supplies, pet things and spare household goods as well.
Pet food and leashes
A low shelf near the door for leashes and treats, with the food bin on the floor below it.
Ironing board and iron
A tall gap at one end of the wall, or floor space beside the dryer, lets the board stand upright.
Light bulbs, batteries and filters
Small spares in a labeled bin on a high shelf, where they are found when needed and out of reach of children.
Sorting and folding in the laundry room
A shelf deep enough for a basket gives you somewhere to sort clothes by person as they come out of the dryer. If the machines are front-loading, their tops make a folding surface, and the shelf above holds the folded stacks until they go back to the bedrooms.
Keep the shelf you reach for every wash day at the front of the layout, near the washer lid or door, and put spare bottles on a higher level.
Getting ready
Preparing the house for a whole-house job
With several rooms on one job, a little preparation keeps the work moving from room to room.
Empty the closets
Take clothes, boxes and anything on the closet floor out of each room to be shelved. A bed or a spare room is a good place to stack it.
The laundry area
Take bottles and baskets off the tops of the washer and dryer, and clear the wall above them.
Garage walls
Move bikes, bins and anything leaning on the walls to be shelved into the middle of the garage.
Pets
Keep pets in a room that is not being shelved.
One shelf type through the house, or a mix
Using one type in every room keeps the house simple: every shelf works the same way, and parts look alike from room to room. Bedroom closets with a single shelf and rod can be fixed, while the pantry, linen closet and garage get adjustable shelf-and-rail.
If you cannot decide, tell us which rooms you expect to rearrange in the next few years.
