Single Door

Even a small closet is packed with storage opportunities; it just requires you to be clever in finding them. For instance, in this single-door closet, a simple self-assembled shelving unit provides loads of adjustable space for folded T-shirts, jeans, and sweaters, while also accommodating boxes and baskets filled with camisoles and undergarments. An easy-to-install bar allows dress and work clothes to hang. Even the back of the door becomes a hanging shoe rack with a few pockets devoted to small accessories.

 

A pair of stick-on utility hooks helps squeeze every inch of space out of this slender wall. Easy to use and cheap, these hooks are surprisingly strong and keep soft items from getting crushed.

 

When winter is done, bulky jackets and sweaters don't need to steal prime hanging or shelf space in your closet. Instead, stash them in a large cardboard box on the top shelf. Clean winter boots will fit nicely alongside, and when it's time to bundle up again, out-of-season summer clothes and sandals can take their place.

 

Hidden behind the hanging clothes on the back wall, this coat-hook rack doubles as a smart belt and scarf hanger in what was untapped closet storage space.
