Walk-in closets in Dunedin, shaped to suit your room.
Few older Dunedin cottages came with a walk-in, so most are made from a spare bedroom, a sunroom corner or a rear addition. These rooms are often small and may have windows to work around. Walk through with the drawers open before you decide how much cabinetry the floor can take.

What does a walk-in closet project cost?
Ask that the window, the walkway width and each drawer location appear on the drawing, along with what each section will hold.

Get my itemized quoteCan a small cottage walk-in carry cabinets on both sides?
Only if an aisle is left once drawers are open. In many modest rooms one side of drawers and one of hanging space gives more usable room than two full runs.
Should shelving cover a window in the closet room?
Usually it is better to work around it. Covering a window can trap damp air and take away light, so confirm how it opens and how cabinets will sit nearby.

Dunedin cabinet planning
Choose shoe storage around the footwear
Closely spaced shelves can increase the displayed capacity while excluding larger footwear. Mixed openings may serve the collection better. See the planning FAQ for questions about the ordering process.
Decide which folded clothes deserve drawers
Drawers protect smaller folded items from becoming unstable shelf piles. Choose the categories that benefit from a drawer before adding an identical stack to every wardrobe bay.
Compare the alternatives
Additional drawers introduce fronts and hardware into the scope. They should solve an identified storage problem rather than fill a blank section of the drawing. Use the concept gallery to describe a visual preference.
Put the decision in the quote
Specify the intended footwear groups and adjustable sections instead of relying on an illustrated pair count. Add this priority to your design request for Dunedin.
