Closets for Montgomeryville’s newer homes
Montgomeryville sits in Montgomery Township where Route 309 meets Route 202, in the North Penn School District. Most of its neighborhoods were built from the 1970s through the 2000s: two-story colonials, split-levels, carriage homes and townhouse communities, with newer construction mixed in.
These homes have reasonable closet space on paper. The problem is how builders finished it. A typical Montgomeryville closet has:
- One wire shelf with a single hanging rod under it
- Empty wall space above the shelf and below the clothes
- Corners nobody can reach, especially in L-shaped walk-ins
- No drawers, so a dresser still has to live in the bedroom
Replacing that setup with a built-in system is often the simplest way to gain storage without adding square footage.
Walk-in closet systems
Primary bedrooms in Montgomeryville colonials often have a walk-in that is good-sized but poorly used. We design each wall for a purpose:
| Wall or area | Suggested design |
|---|---|
| Longest wall | Double hanging for shirts and pants |
| Short wall | Long hanging for dresses, coats and suits |
| Third wall | Drawer tower and shoe shelving |
| Corners | Shelving that turns the corner so nothing is lost |
| Center, if space allows | An island with drawers and a folding surface |
Adjustable shelving lets you change heights later. Our walk-in closets page shows more ideas.
Reach-in closets for kids’ rooms and guest rooms
Secondary bedrooms usually have a reach-in with bifold or sliding doors. A reach-in closet system with double hanging, shelves above and a few drawers makes room for a growing child’s clothes and toys, and the layout can be rearranged as they get older. Adjustable rods start at a height a young child can reach, and a low shelf for shoes and backpacks keeps the floor clear for the morning rush.
Garages, mudrooms and laundry rooms
Montgomeryville homes typically have attached two-car garages and a laundry room or hallway by the garage door. Those are the spaces that collect the most clutter.
- Garage storage: tall cabinets, wall cabinets, workbenches and slatwall to get tools, bikes and seasonal bins off the floor. See garage storage in Montgomery County.
- Mudroom storage: lockers or cubbies, a bench, hooks and shoe space at the garage entry. See mudroom storage in Montgomery County.
- Laundry rooms: upper cabinets, a folding counter and a rod for hanging clothes.
Townhouse and carriage home closets
Montgomeryville has a lot of townhouse and carriage home communities, and their closets have their own quirks. Bedrooms are often on the upper floor with a reach-in on each, the primary closet may be a long, narrow walk-in, and the entry closet sits right inside the front door with very little room around it. In a narrow walk-in we keep hanging on one side and put drawers and shelves on the other so you can still move through comfortably. Entry closets get hooks, a shoe shelf and a shelf for hats and bags. For homeowners planning to downsize into a townhouse, a well-designed closet system is often what lets a wardrobe from a larger house fit into the new one.
Pantries and home offices
Builder pantries usually have the same wire shelving as the closets. Adjustable shelves and pull-out baskets make the full depth usable. For a spare bedroom used as an office, we design desks, file drawers and shelving, and can add a Murphy bed so the room still works for guests.
Built from quality materials
Every system uses 3/4” furniture-grade boards, with options including adjustable shelving and soft-close drawers, and many finishes and hardware options. Each design is drawn for your space after we measure it in person, and you can revise it before anything is ordered. Homeowners rate us 4.8 stars on Google.
