Before the whole process is going to even start, you will need to make sure you have gathered all the right materials before installing your closet organizer the do-it-yourself way to save money.

Firstly, you will have to measure up from the floor all the way up for the desired height of the first shelf and then mark the wall with a pencil. Next you will need to use a carpenter’s level to mark a horizontal reference line all around the closet at that height. This step is very important, do remember it by hard.

Secondly, you will need to mount the closet shelf unit by attaching the mounting clips with screws driven directly into the wall studs. Always refer to the manufacturer’s directions when in doubt for the correct spacing of the mounting clips, I believe you don’t want to get hurt during the installation process right. If necessary, always use a hollow wall anchors to fasten the clips between wall studs. The last thing you are going to do is to attach diagonal closet shelf supports where they’re needed, best would be to refer to the manufacturer’s directions manual whenever possible.

Please note that all vinyl-coated wire systems and also all melamine-laminated particleboard systems are not created equal. A lot of people does not know this point. Many different DIY closet organizer manufacturers make both styles but their components and attachment systems aren’t always compatible with each other. My advise is to be on the safe side as much as possible therefore my advise is to stick to the same brand for any single DIY closet organizer installation.
