Many manufactured homes (aka mobile homes), especially older models, often have smaller closets, making organizing challenging. However, the right organizers can make more of a difference than expected. Here’s how to transform your closet from a cluttered mess into a neat and functional storage space.

1. Use Vertical Space Wisely

Vertical space is a great way to maximize storage. Adding shelves can free up precious floor space and keep things organized.

  • Wire Shelving: Simple and affordable, wire shelving is a great way to store shoes, bags, and other necessary items within arm’s reach. Install these shelves above your hanging clothes for easy access to smaller items.
  • Floating Shelves: If you’re short on closet space, floating shelves are an excellent choice. They give the illusion of more space by providing storage without overwhelming the room and work wonders for folded clothes or accessories.
  • Adjustable Shelving Units: Customize your closet’s organization with adjustable shelving. These systems allow you to move the shelves to fit your needs as they change over time. You can create the perfect balance between hanging space and shelf storage.

2. Maximize Hanging Rod Space

Closet rods are often limited in length, but hanging organizers can help you make the most of them.

  • Double Hanging Rods: Add a second rod below your existing one to increase hanging space for shorter items like shirts, blouses, or pants.
  • Hanging Shoe Organizers: Store footwear with over-the-door or hanging shoe racks without taking up floor space. You can even find clear hanging shoe organizers that let you quickly see your shoes, making grabbing the pair you need easier.
  • Hanging Baskets: These are perfect for storing scarves, belts, or handbags. A hanging basket keeps accessories in view and easy to reach without cluttering valuable shelf space.

3. Over-the-Door Organizers

Many manufactured homes have closet doors that can be used for additional storage without compromising access to clothing.

  • Over-the-Door Hooks: These are great for hanging hats, robes, bags, or scarves. They save space while keeping your items easily accessible.
  • Over-the-door Shoe Racks: Unlike the hanging shoe organizer, hanging your shoe rack from the door provides a more sturdy solution.
  • Over-the-Door Organizers: Store small items like jewelry, cleaning supplies, or toiletries in a handy, out-of-sight spot.
