Free-Standing Closet

[Tomaz]

I have recently moved into my own place where the bedroom does not have a closet (the room is quite literally a 16' x 16' box). I need some ideas for a closet alternative to hang my stuff!

I checked out the PAX system sold through Ikea, but a 3m x 2.5m closet was $1300!!! To me, that seemed a little steep (ok, so i might be cheap).

Any ideas Beyond?

Sometimes you can find portable wardrobes at places like Wal-Mart, Sears, Canadian Tire, etc...

Basically, they are a metal frame and covered in a tough canvas-type material...

Of course, they are not as stylish as a wood/wood-based product, but they are pretty inexpensive and do the job.

Interesting that this place has a bedroom without a closet... is this a 'den'...?

Are you allowed to screw anything in? If so install some wire shelving that would be the cheapest way to go. Or if you don't want everything out in the open buy a few standing closets, Ikea has some starting from $100 that you can buy a few of and put side by side.

That just might work. Right now i am using a rolling clothing rack like what you would find in value village! lol

'Den' is one term, some of my friends call it the 'Dog House'. My father and I turned a 2700 sq. ft. Millwork shop into my house. A rent-free alternative to living while going back to school full-time in the fall. I really should post some pics of this. I am quite impressed really! I can fit 8 cars in my garage! :bigpimp:

Anyway, thanks mate! I'll check out Wallmart on my way home. I might get one of those systems to work.

I have an Ikea wardrobe I don't need. Light birch with frosted (plastic) front.

Bought it for $150, but you can have it for $50 if you want it. Just gotta come get it right away, since we are packing up to move. It might need a dowel for the bar, and does need to have the back re-nailed. (2 minute job)

email me if interested. [email protected]
