A custom closet is designed around the actual space available and how you organize your clothes, not a standard store module. This guide covers the most common closet types, available materials, and what information we need to give you a clear quote.

Types of custom closets

Built-in closet

Integrates directly into a bedroom wall, making use of the space without taking up extra volume. It can have hinged or sliding doors, depending on the space available in front of the unit.

Walk-in closet

Turns a dedicated space (a small room or a large area) into a full dressing room, with distinct zones for hanging clothes, folded clothes and accessories.

Most common materials

Melamine: affordable, available in many colors and textures.
Veneered MDF: a good balance between cost and the look of natural wood.
Solid wood: usually used for specific details like doors or frames, due to its higher cost.

Tip

If your budget is tight, consider melamine for the closet body and save solid wood for visible details only, like doors or trim.
