Custom Closets
More Space. Less Clutter. Built to Last.
Measured precisely, organized smartly, and finished clean.
Custom closets should make mornings easier and rooms calmer. KEMPF Construction designs and builds storage that fits your home and habits—so everything has a place and you gain back square footage you already own. We handle design, measurement, material procurement, and installation with clear communication at every step. Expect accurate scopes, realistic timelines, and a tidy jobsite with dust control and daily cleanup.
We start with how you actually live: wardrobe mix, shoe count, folded vs. hanging ratio, long-hang needs, and overflow items (luggage, seasonal gear). Then we plan zones—double-hang for everyday clothes, long-hang for dresses/coats, shelves for denim/knits, tilt-out hampers, and drawers where you want a furniture-like finish. Lighting, door swings, outlets, mirrors, and ventilation are addressed up front so the system feels integrated, not tacked on later.
Durability matters. We use cabinet-grade components for your custom closets, secure fastening into studs, and edge-banded shelves that resist chipping. Hardware is chosen for quiet operation—soft-close slides, full-extension drawers, sturdy rods—and finishes are selected to match your home (paint-grade, melamine, or stained wood accents). If your closet shares walls with a bath or exterior, we consider moisture and temperature to protect contents and materials. You’ll get selection deadlines, a predictable schedule, and weekly updates—no surprises.

Frequently Answered Questions
How long does custom closets be ready?
Design and approvals typically take 1–2 weeks. Installation for a standard reach-in is often 1 day; walk-ins or multi-room packages can run 2–4 days once materials are on site. You’ll get a project-specific schedule before we start.
Do I need to empty the closet?
Yes—please remove clothing and personal items before installation. We can provide rolling racks and bins on request to make the transition easier.
Can the system be adjusted later?
Absolutely. We use adjustable standards and shelves so sections can shift as needs change. Additional drawers, rods, or shelves can be added later without starting from scratch.
What’s the weight capacity of shelves and rods?
Standard adjustable shelves and rods are anchored into studs or reinforced rails and are rated for typical wardrobe loads (40–80+ lbs per shelf/rod section). Heavy-duty options are available for gear, books, or garage use.
Can you handle lighting and electrical in the closet?
Yes. We can coordinate licensed electricians for hard-wired LED strips, motion sensors, and outlet placements, and integrate cord management so lighting feels built-in and clutter-free in your custom closets.
