Click here for additional information or to purchase the Easy Track Closet Organizer pictured in this post.
When it comes time to admit that your closets are out of control and it is no longer possible to put off their organization, there are few simpler systems to start with than Easy Track Closet Organizers. These products are well built of long-lasting materials, easy to install, and have numerous accessories available allowing you to easily customize your closet to meet your on personal needs. Easy Track also has an online 3D Design Tool that allows you to create the perfect space in your closet. These products come highly recommended and received a rating of 4 out of 5 stars from customers that purchased the pictured system on Amazon.
If you are in the market for a closet organization system that is simple to design and install, yet customizable and expandable, an Easy Track Closet System may be just what you are looking for. Read below a sample of reviews by previous customers.
I have purchased and installed dozens of Easy Track and other brands' closet systems and accessories over the past 18 years. Easy Track is by far my favorite and what I have chosen to use in my own closets. Great quality, reasonable pricing and unmatched versatility. As a matter of fact, the reason I saw this item is because I am shopping for components to re-configure my existing closet design...try easily doing that with wire or any other systems!
Product quality and durability is unsurpassed. I imagine Easy Track doesn't appreciate it that I have many components from my original closet installation 18 years ago, in my current closet. They do not wear out!
With regards to the quality of the instructions, yes, the instructions used to be much more helpful and clear. The Easy Track system parent company has changed ownership over the years and whoever they have had edit the currently supplied directions apparently does not communicate well with others.
Remember these few points:
1.) Do not worry about having to do math like they say in the instructions. MOUNT THE TRACK 76" FROM THE FLOOR. This works well for users 4' 10" and up.
2.) Invest in a stud finder. Even the cheap electronic ones work well for this. Try to put two screws in every stud if possible. Rarely have I had to use toggles and even then, if you mark and drill the toggle holes centered behind a hole in the track, no problems!
3.) Put the vertical panels and shelves wherever you want! It's a personalized closet system! It can be changed if you don't like it.
4.) For additional stability when you have the system installed how you like it, pre-drill 1/8" holes in the bottom of the rod holders and rods with any hand held drill and install small set screws to hold the rods in place. This is NOT necessary if you measured right and the system is installed SNUGGLY between two walls but I recommend it.
5.) I always install one full length shelf which has to be purchased separately and is not available from Easy Track, along the top of the system. Put a few screws through the shelf into the tops of the vertical panels and this makes the installation even more stable.
Bottom line is anyone with ambition and minimal skills can install Easy Track closet systems like a pro! You will be surprised how great you will feel when your closet is organized exactly how you wanted it to be and you did all the work yourself!

Neu Home Closet Doubler
If you are like many other people and live in a small apartment, you know the premium that is placed on the space in your closets. You could install an elaborate closet organization system and increase the space greatly but you may not intend to stay in your present apartment for the long term. A better solution may be the closet doubler from Neu Home products. This system hangs from the existing rod in your closet and in essence adds another rod below thus doubling your hanging space.
The Neu Home Closet Doubler received a nice rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars at Amazon. A couple of examples of the reviews are below:
I have to share a closet with not only my husband, but my daughter as well. We live in a small two bedroom and only one bedroom has a closet. For years we've been having trouble with other closet doubler rods, they were always hard to keep in place and only had one length on it which was hard to decide whose clothes went on top and bottom because it always dragged someone's clothes.
With this Adjustable Closet Doubler, it has saved our wardrobe. My daughters clothes go on top and I have the rod just below them, giving my clothes room to hang. Now, they don't slide around on the floor and get dusty or wrinkly. This product has just been a lifesaver! And it was so easy to put together, I thought that it was almost too easy! : )
I recommend it anyone who is wanting more space in their closet but with low cost!
The single most important thing you need to know about this doubler is that in order to use the top half for women's shirts/blouses, you will need to hang the rod on the bottom rung and even then, it might still be too short. I put this in my smaller single closet where it pretty much takes up the whole width. A couple things to note that I was uncertain about when I bought this:
1. Don't worry too much about the length of this, I measured my closet and it seemed several inches short of these measurements but the "hooks" that hang on your original closet rod can move about a bit.
2. This arrives in literally three pieces, the left "hook" and the right "hook," which are interchangeable, and the bottom rod. You hang the two hooks from your original closet rod and then slip the rod onto the rungs of the hooks. At first, it seems shaky but once my clothing was on it, I didn't notice it much and have no trouble taking things on and off the bars.
3. To give your bottom clothing just a bit more clearance, instead of putting your hangers inside the rectangular compartments on the bottom rod, simply hang your hangers right over the top of the bar. Hopefully you can see this in my picture that I've included vs. the stock pic.
4. Unless you are a small man, men's shirts will not fit on the original closet bar anymore even with the bottom bar hung on the last rung. To give you some idea of size, my size 0 dress shirts fit on the top bar with perhaps two inches clearance. Having said that, see #5.
5. There are eight rungs that you can adjust the bar on. Even if you can't fit your shirts on the top closet bar even with the bottom bar on the last rung, you can simply move the bottom bar higher so that you have more room on the bottom. The first several rungs are very high so you could hang the rod from one of those, giving you just a bit space on top that you could use to hang one of those wire baskets/shelves or hang other small things like hats of folded scarves etc.
6. The three pieces seem well made and durable, not too heavy or flimsy.
Overall, this was a super inexpensive way to double my closet and I highly recommend it but with the caveat that depending on your clothing length and how high your original closet bar, it might not be perfect for everyone. But with my standard apartment sized closet, it works quite well.
If you are looking to quickly increase the space in a small closet, the Neu Home Closet Doubler may be just what the doctor ordered.

Great Product with Excellent Customer Service
Read the reviews and decided to go ahead. Received the two sets that I ordered and I must say that the John Louis Home Standard Closet Shelving System is well designed with room for flexibility. Fitted the two sets in our walk-in closet and they look spectacular. The hardware are well built, firm and strong so I expect them to last a long, long time. Love the mahogany color and the touch-up kit that came with each set; not that we need that much of it. Installation of the first set took over 2 hours but the second was done in about half the time. Instructions are clear and not difficult to follow. Overall, it is a breeze once you have decided on the configuration.
Most of all, I must say that I am very pleased with John Louis' customer service. An angle bracket had a piece that was chipped off so I called John Louis' customer service. They were very polite and didn't hesitate to send a new bracket to me. In fact, they sent a pair and had them delivered to me within two-days so that I wouldn't be held up with my installation. What more can anyone ask for. Excellent company!
Requires saw and lots of wall holes, but very nice
Just installed this system over the weekend -- went smoothly but does, as other reviewers mentioned, take some time. I'd say I'm barely average in the "handyman" department--this was an 8 hour install for me.
I think the main reason for this is surprisingly all the horizontal shelves have to mount to studs/anchors individually. That seems VERY strange to me as most systems would have you mount a pegboard of sorts or rail and you'd click all shelves to that. Not so with this. You put a LOT of holes in your walls with this setup. I think this could be pretty easily modified by the manufacturer to save a lot of the install time so I deducted a star for that.
Also you will almost certainly need a saw for this. Suppose even a light hand saw would technically work but we had to cut 2 bars and one shelf and I'd imagine most anyone would have to make at least that many cuts. Beyond that, installation (at least to me) is pretty much what you'd expect--lots of work with a studfinder, level and screwdriver/screwgun. Being solid wood I think this setup compares VERY favorably to EasyClosets' 3x far more expensive setup quality-wise.
Built it by myself!!!
The only thing I can say is WOW--- I installed this over the weekend in my master bedroom closet and I LOVE it. Everyone I've shown pictures to has loved it and my neighbors who remodeled their own home had serious closet-envy. It's the only thing in my house that they would envy. =)
I am thankful for the "Straightline" Laser Level I purchased in advance of this build. It was the best investment I could make and I highly recommend buying or borrowing a laser level before installing these shelves.
Be prepared- you will most likely need a table saw for this project. I wasn't aware of that need and got bummed when I realized I wouldn't be able to build right away. Thankfully my fiancee has the power of persuasion and convinced the guy at Home Depot to cut the wood for us.
This closet is made out of real wood and you can smell it! It is made in America and even has a metal tag on one of the shelves indicating the manufaturer's name. This little touch goes a long way to showing off the high quality of this product.
It took me somewhere between 10-15 hours to build this on my own (my fiancee got too intimidated to help). I occasionally needed an extra set of hands to level the shelves because they can be slightly heavy especially when you're holding a pencil in one hand making marks on the wall.
This product comes highly recommended. It makes my closet look bigger (deeper and taller). It literally doubled the surface area of my selves and increased my hanging room by 50%. I'm planning on buying this kit and building these shelves in every room in the house. What an AWESOME investment!!!
Looks great, but make sure you PLAN IT OUT!
The pieces for this set are pretty basic.
3 long pieces (either 48" each or 60" each)
3 2' shelves
4 contoured support brackets
9 or so spacers for the hanging rods
4 6' trim pieces
Tons of hardware (screws, anchors, brackets, etc.)
You really need a good trim saw, or a table saw...I can't imagine cutting the shelves with a hand saw...
It took me a while to "lay out", and design my own little customized piece. I think that I started sawing a little too early, and didn't think to make the shelf on top long enough to be one of the "stacking shelves". But it all worked out in the end...Fortunately, there is plenty of "dummy room" with the brackets in that if you cut a shelf too short by an inch, the bracket will cover for you. I had a hard time with some of the screws and brackets that were to support the shelves. If you wiggled the shelf around trying to get it in to the right spot it "crunched" the wood...Once I got going though, it really came together quickly, and looks great as a final product...Wife is very happy with results...I have tons of hardware left as I used much longer screws to really drive it in to the studs for years of use...Do get some spackle though, because leftover damage from removed wire shelving left nice big holes.
Designer Closet In A Day!
We live in a 30 year old manufactured home. (Trailer to most of you young folks). It is a large mobile and we have just the one large double reach in closet and little storage. We shopped the home improvement stores for closet organizers and were disappointed that all we found were laminated or metal wire organizers. We decided to go home and look at Amazon before we made a purchase. We were really surprised by the John Louis organizer. The price (at the time we purchased) beat any local home improvement store by at least 30%. I have Prime and the shipping was free. It arrived within 3 days. It was packaged safely and we assembled and installed it in one day. It is beautiful. We are planning a move in the next couple of years. I will look for this product again if the need arises.
Classy, simple, affordable
I bought 2 of these systems for our master bedroom closet about a year ago and I must say they have really made a big diffence. Several different categories of satisfaction so I'll list them to make it easy as possible:
Aesthetics: The wood,finish and hardware are of considerable quality and look great. I chose the Red Mahogany finish and it truly makes a difference in our closet (we had those regular white wire organizing systems). The edges are soft yet masculine enough to appeal to any husband/significant other and the shelves are reminiscent of a spa-type atmosphere.
Options: The kits include design ideas for numerous closet sizes and configurations and have everything you need. Hardware, drywall reinforcements, touch-up stain, diagrams.
Ease of installation: Although capable of being a 1-person installation - the job would be much simpler with 2. Simple enough for the novice handyman, tools required are limted and basic - if you have a hammer, power drill/screwdriver and a saw of some type, you're in business. Obviously, the right tool for the right job makes any task easier, but if your toolchest is limited, the above mentioned items will easily get you thru this project. Instructions are easy to follow and installation time isn't long and drawn out; it took me working by myself to completely install one kit approx. 2.5hrs (for our closet, 1 kit outfits one side with some remaining pieces). Be sure to install into as many studs as possible for strength. I hit 90% of the studs in our closet and the shelving is strong enough to hold the weight of my 3-year-old who decided to sit on one of the lower shelves (shoe shelf/rack) to help daddy work:-)
Modifications: If you're really handy and like a challenge, take any remaining pieces to really go all out. Since i needed 2 kits for our closet, the pieces remaining from both kits gave me enough shelving and hardware to place a shelf above the entrance to our walk-in, plus 2 extra stringers and 1 shelf to outfit the back wall of our closet (I then matched the wood and built cabinet doors, drawers and 2 more shelves to give my wife a built-in jewelry drawer).
Pricing/Cost: For the price of the 2 kits (and the extra work/modifications I added) I saved literally thousands of dollars doing the job myself and we got exactly want we wanted in our closet!!
Touch of Elegance
I purchased this system a few months back to upgrade our average "rubbermaid" type closet shelving. The kit is very simple to follow and even possible for a 1-man installation; although two would make it easier. The finish is top-notch and the flexibility of the install is very accommodating. I would suggest wherever possible attach the supports to pre-existing studs for strength and durability. My wife and I are extremely happy with the results and we are now purchasing our second kit to finish the remainder of the closet. I dabble in carpentry so I've added our own touches like a jewelry drawer for my wife, some elegant doors to conceal two of the shelves and even with the modifications, both kits are still well under the estimates we received from closet-specialist type companies. If u have the time, patience and a little experience with a hammer and saw - this is definitely worth the price and I'm sure you'll be extremely happy with the results.

Closet Organizers for Small Closets
While the organization of any closet is important and will benefit from some major reworking, installing closet organizer systems in a small closet will definitely provide some serious bang for your buck. There is nothing worse than having to sift through everything thrown haphazardly in the bottom of the closet looking for your golf shoes or some other important item. The hall or coat closet is a prime example of a small closet that seems to always be the spot that collects everything that does not fit anywhere else.
In order to get a handle on the clutter in your coat closet, the first thing you must do is empty the closet and get all the coats and other items out of the way. Now that everything is out of the closet, the first thing to do is go through your coats and other stuff item by item and throw away the things that either no longer fit or you simply do not intend to wear or have use for any longer. Once this agonizing part of the project is done you can move on to other things. Since the closet is empty, you might as well give it a good cleaning. Start by vacuuming out all the corners and wiping down the walls with either a pine cleaner and water solution or a vinegar and water solution. Finally, after everything has been wiped down, give the closet floor a good vacuuming.
Now consider the items that you will be putting back into the closet and the type of rods, shelving or containers you will need for their storage. Take some measurements of the closet for reference and take a trip to your local home improvement or department store. My first choice is always to check out the available closet organizer systems that come as a kit. These kits will normally have everything necessary for the installation and if you can locate one that will fit your needs your project will go much smoother since the basic design work will be done. Otherwise, you will need to gather the individual rods, shelving and containers necessary for the construction of custom small closet organizers for your individual closets.
Once you return home, gather all the items together that you intend to place back into the closet and sort them into groups of like items. Coats with coats, shoes with shoes, etc. Hang the coats and any other item that will hang on the rod. This will now allow you to see exactly how much space you have both above and below the hanging items. Now place shoes or other items that you may use often below the coats utilizing whatever means of storage you chose for these items. Then do the same above.
Now that all items are in their place and neatly organized, you should more easily be able to locate them thus saving you time. As you come to know, the little amount of time spent designing and installing closet organizer systems will pay dividends for many, many years to come.
