Effectively organise your walk in wardrobe

Effectively organise your walk in wardrobe to maximize efficiency and keep everything exactly where you need it. Organizing your walk in wardrobe can be done by picking the right storage accessories for your items. We’ve picked out some of the best ways in which your clothes, shoes, bags etc can be stored to make sure everything you need is easy to access and looks good! Having the correct amount of storage configured correctly helps keep everything in it’s place and your walk in clutter free.

The most obvious way to store clothes is on a hanger. Ideal for pretty much any item of clothing, hangers allow you to keep your clothes neatly back to back and easy to get hold of. Perfect for shirts, t-shirts, dresses and coats. If the height of your wardrobe allows, using one hanger above the other will increase the amount of clothes you’re able to store. Essentially double hanging is ideal for everyday wear such as t-shirts, shirts and suits as typically we would allow at least a metres drop from a hanger to allow for the height of the garments.

Shelves are an essential item for many different items. Great for folded items like jumpers and knitwear, they are also ideal for bags and suitcases. Wooden shelves offer a great way to keep your items on display yet allow you to pile folded clothes on top of one another. Alternatively, glass shelves are a great idea for items such as bags for showcasing in a  more luxurious fashion.

Drawers provide the best solution when you want to keep things out of sight. They are ideal of socks, undergarments, nightwear and for folded items that you may not use all the time. Whilst drawers can be essential to your walk in, it’s important to consider how many items you actually want to keep tucked away. Alternatively, glass front drawers offer the best of both worlds, allowing you to nestled items away whilst still being able to see through.

Having dedicated storage in your wardrobe provides a way to store specific items, whilst adding unique design features to the space. These can include trouser racks, shoe racks and hampers. It’s important to consider how many items you need to store when considering this type of storage. For example, a trouser rack will have a fixed number of rods to hang trousers from. If you want to hange a lot of trousers it may work out more beneficial to hang them from a regular hanger so you can store more.

Although not essential when considering your walk in organisation, no walk in wardrobe is complete without lighting. Having integrated lighting adds the finishing touch to make any walk in wardrobe truly luxurious. Vertical lights are a popular solution for illuminating an entire carcass, as these are integrated along the whole height of the sides. Shelf lights are perfect for lighting up particular areas and can be used in both carcass and panel systems.

If you have accessories and jewellery to store, there are also a range of trays and grids that can be used to store these items.

Overall, it is important to consider the type of storage you want for each type of clothing you will be keeping in your walk in wardrobe. In this guide we have chosen some of the different ways you can store your items to help you decide what’s best for you.
