Our Simple Four-Step Process
Transforming your closet into a more functional and beautiful space is easier than you think. Consult. Design. Prepare. Install. In just four easy steps, our team transforms your disorganized, stressful space into an organized, inspired one.
Our process starts with a one-on-one consultation. In this initial meeting, our designers ask questions and listen with the intent of better understanding your needs, wants, and the demand on your space. We talk about what you love, and don’t love, about your current closet. We measure your space and take an inventory of the items you keep in your closet. If you come into the consultation not completely sure about what you want in a new custom closet, don’t worry. Our designers are adept at asking the right questions so that we both have a clear understanding going into the design step.
The learnings from our consultation inform the custom closet design. Our designers provide thoughtful suggestions for layout and design features. We help match colors, finishes, and hardware to your home decor and style, all within your comfortable budget. There’s a good chance you will change your mind once or twice during the design process, and that’s okay with us. We are patient and determined to create a custom closet design you love. During design, we create a 3D rendering of the layout so you can view how your custom closet will look in your Chicago area home. Seeing the 3D rendering makes it easier to visualize the space and discuss any changes you may want to make.
Once the design is final, preparation begins. While this step can seem stressful, it’s not. With Inspired Closets Oakbrook, we work with you to minimize the disruption that cleaning out your closet can cause. During preparation, we offer garment racks to move and store your clothing and belongings during installation. Our team removes your current closet structure and prepares the walls for the installation of your new custom closet.
On installation day, our experienced custom closet installers work efficiently and carefully and are respectful of your home and of your time. And when our installation team is finished, you’ll have a beautiful, expertly installed custom closet. When we reveal the custom closets to our Chicago clients, they are often amazed at how well it matches the 3D rendering. They always tell us how much they have enjoyed the custom closet design process and how happy they are to have a more organized home.
From consultation to installation, we make the entire process easy and fun, leaving you with a custom closet you will love. We would love to help you transform your home. Give us a call today or stop by our custom closet showroom in either Oakbrook or Chicago and get inspired.
