Closet Too Shallow For Hangers

Hold several hangers with heavy items such as jeans on so can take some weight.

Closet too shallow for hangers.

Try buying some new plastic hangers and move the hanging rod if necessary to squeeze into the 17 inch space. From the floor there s enough space to add a second rod below it and still hang shirts and slacks. I have had these in use for quite a while now. If your existing closet rod is at least 66 in.

From the floor which allowed just enough room to hang two levels of pants. Some homeowners remove the closet doors altogether but that s not ideal. In the meantime hang the suit jackets in another closet. I ve thought about trying to rotate the rod.

Built in wardrobes too shallow for standard coat hanger these are brilliant. We placed the top of the rod 35 in. Or buy a new one cut into 2 equal lengths to the depth of closet. I would cut the dowel bar you hang the coats on to fit depthwise so there is 2 dowels instead of one.

Locate studs on the back wall of the closet with a stud finder. My guest bedroom has an extra shallow closet 15 inches deep. The problem with a shallow closet is that when a closet rod is installed from end to end as closet rods typically are you can t fit clothes hangers on the rod and still close the closet door. This is too narrow for a hanger so clothes hung on the rod end up being angled rubbing against the back wall and the door etc.

What can i do with this thing.
