Install A Custom California Closet System

The California Closet can be adjusted to fit your needs.


California Closets is a line of custom shelving systems made from fine hardwoods. Though generally installed by a professional, the California Closet is based on a design simple enough for anybody to assemble. The closet's horizontal rail supports vertical dividers that make up the primary structure. These contain rows of holes that can be fitted with pegs to support shelves, drawers and bars at whatever height you prefer. By simply snapping and screwing the various pieces together, you can install your own custom California Closet over the course of a single afternoon. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Screw the steel support rail to your wall at a sufficient height that the vertical supports will be clear of the floor when hanging from it. Snap the rail cover onto the rail to hide any unsightly screws.


2. Hang the vertical dividers on the support rail, hooking their suspension brackets over the top of the rail and locking them into position. Position the dividers to be equidistant, with just enough space between for your shelves.


3. Insert pegs in four holes at a single level between two of the vertical components. Place a cam-lock shelf on top. Screw the shelf into place and repeat the process for each vertical shelf area to secure the closet structure.


4. Add the custom components of your closet as desired. Every part of the closet works on the peg-and-hole system - rest a shelf on four pegs, attach a sliding rail and install a drawer, stick end caps into the holes and rest a hanging bar between them, snap a tie rack into a hole, and so on.
