How We Price Custom Closets

Your choice of material affects both the look and cost of your system. Melamine is a durable and budget-friendly option available in a wide range of finishes and colors. For those who prefer specialty materials, we offer real wood veneers that can be finished in any number of stain colors, as well as fully painted MDF (an engineered wood product) with a selection of edge profiles available in standard and custom colors.

Closet Factory’s nationwide manufacturing facilities give us the flexibility to produce panels and shelves in any depth your project requires. Popular depths, such as 12″, 16″, and 24″, frequently serve different functional and aesthetic purposes. Shallower depths are ideal for limited budgets and more streamlined designs, while deeper panels can accommodate bulkier items and allow for features like full extension drawers, doors, and pull-out shelving. As your Designer lays out the floor plan and elevations, they suggest material depths that can enhance function and style for your space.

Molding adds a finishing touch and is one of the most visible upgrades you can make. Options range from simple edge trim to ornate crown and base molding. These features are one of the first upgrades our clients select, adding architectural polish and a sense of completion to the space.

Adding doors or drawers can give your closet a polished cabinetry appearance and enhance functionality by concealing clutter. Costs vary depending on door style (flat vs. raised panel), drawer construction, and the number of units included. Items such as bottom mount glides, velvet or plexiglass drawer inserts, and hardware finish may also add to the final price.

Accessories personalize your closet and elevate convenience. Popular options include valet rods, pull-out hampers, tie and belt racks, jewelry organizers, and more. While many of these can be added at any budget level, selecting multiple accessories or opting for premium finishes can increase your total investment.

Details like fluted columns, corbels, glass shelves, and custom paint finishes contribute to a more elevated look. These elements are often seen in more stylized or luxurious spaces. While not required for function, they’re an impactful way to enhance the visual appeal and will influence cost accordingly.

Integrated lighting improves both visibility and ambiance. Options include LED strip lighting, puck lights, and motion-sensor lighting. Depending on budget, placement and complexity, lighting can be strategically designed into your system, making it appear as a premium upgrade for those wanting a high-end feel.
