For Kitchen Pantry:Use Close Mesh with tightlyspaced wires so small itemsdon’t tip over.
For Laundry & Utility:Use Shelf & Rod™ for an economical storage andclothes hanging shelf.
TRADITIONAL HARDWARE
1 HANGING MORE CLOTHESDouble Hang is the quickestway to get more closet space.If your wardrobe consists ofmostly skirts, shirts, slacks andblouses, you can double yourhanging space. Place one SuperSlide shelf at85 1/2” high and another below it at 42” for correct DoubleHang heights. For long hang, place the shelf at 71 1/2”.
2 STORAGE SHELVESInstall one shelf at 85 1/2”that runs the entire perimeterof your closet to maximizeupper storage. Add Shelf Stacks forsweaters, linens, and otheritems that don’t hang.
3 STORAGE DRAWERSUse drawers to store socks,belts, purses and things thatdon’t hang or sit well onshelves. Drawer Frames are availablein 3 heights (18”, 30” & 42”)and 3 widths (13”,17” & 21”).Allow adequate clearance fordrawers, especially in closetswith sliding doors.
4 SHOE STORAGEAccessible shoe storage is key to anorganized closet.Choose from a variety of shoe racksthat can be used onthe floor, over adoor, or hung from a shelf. Or, create shoeshelves using invertedSuperSlide shelvingsupported by ShoeShelf Supports.

INSTALLATION TIPS:1. Shelf installation
There are three ways to install a shelf: Wall-to-Wall, Wall-to-Open, Open-to-Open. Shelves aresupported by Wall Clips and Support Brackets or Support Poles. When a shelf is attached to a side wall, a Wall Bracket is also used. Choose the right hardware based on the lengthof the shelf and whether or not it attaches to a side wall.
2. Use the right hardwareDrywall – Use ClosetMaid hardware withattached anchor in drywall that is 5/8” thick orless. Drill 1/4” hole, insert hardware, and pushin pin using the blunt end of a hammer or screwdriver. Punching the holes into the wall ordrilling oversized holes will result in a weakenedinstallation. Hammering pins into the wall canresult in broken hardware.Wood Studs – Cut attached anchor off ofClosetMaid hardware and secure to the wall using a #8 x 1” screw into the stud.Concrete (all) and Plaster or Drywall (over 5/8”thick) - Drill 1/4” hole, insert hardware withattached anchor, and secure to the wall using a#8 x 1” screw.
3. End CapsCap every wire on both ends of each shelf and Hanger Bar. End Caps protect you, yourclothing and the shelving materials.
4. CornersButt shelves (A). Be sure to allow for the width of the full length shelf when calculating the size of the other shelf. Use a Corner Support to connect the 2 shelves. Use a Corner Hanger Bar to connect Hanger Bars and allow clothes to slide around corners. Or use a Corner Kit (B) that includes a specially designed Corner Shelf,Corner Hanger Bar, and all installation hard-ware. NOTE: Hanger Bar Supports should beplaced where Hanger Bars join.
5. Measuring and cutting shelves and Hanger BarsWire shelving can be cut using a bolt cutter orhack saw. Hanger Bars can be cut using a pipe cutter (recommended) or a hacksaw. For a wall-to-wall installation, cut the Hanger Bar and the shelf 1" shorter than the total wall widthfor proper fit between the Wall Brackets.
6. Using 16”shelving16" shelving provides additional storage capaci-ty. It is especially good for storage of linens orboxes and as shoe shelving. Hanger Bars canbe installed using 16" shelving. When using 16” shelving to hang clothes, BE SURE TO USE12" Support Brackets as shown so the shelf issupported properly and hangers can slide unobstructed.

INSTALLATION TIPS:1. Use the right hardware
Select hardware that is right for your wall type:Drywall: Drill 1/2" holes and secure to the wall with toggle bolts. Studs: Secure to the wall with #12x2" pan head screws at stud locations.Concrete: Drill 1/4" holes, insert #12 wallanchors and secure to the wall with #12x2" pan head screws.
2. Hang Track locationTrack can be installed at any height. However,for maximum adjustability and strongest installation, install track flush to ceiling and screwinto wood header behind wall board. Studinstallation is recommended whenever possible for the strongest installation.
3. Determine length andspacing of standardsStandards are available in several lengths,depending on the number of shelves you want and the spacing between the shelves.The closer the standards are placed together,the stronger the installation. Standards shouldbe spaced no more than 24" apart, and nomore than 4" from the end of the shelf.
4. Securing standardsEach standard must be secured to the wall with one screw at the closest hole to the centerof the standard for proper installation. Whenusing toggle bolts, remove toggle, put boltthrough standard and re-attach toggle to boltbefore placing standard on track.
5. Cutting shelves, Hanger Bars, and Hang TracksWire shelving can be cut using a bolt cutter or hack saw. Hanger Bars can be cut using a pipe cutter (recommended) or a hacksaw.Hang Tracks can be cut with a hacksaw.
6. CornersOne shelf is installed the full length of the walland the other shelf butts to the front of it. Be sure to allow for the width of the full length shelfwhen calculating the size of the other shelf. Use a Corner Support to connect the 2 shelves.Use a Corner Hanger Bar to connect HangerBars and allow clothes to slide around corners.NOTE: Hanger Bar Supports should be placedwhere Hanger Bars join.
7. End CapsCap every wire on both ends of each shelf and Hanger Bar. End Caps protect you, yourclothing, and the shelving materials.
8. Using 16" Shelving16" shelving provides additional storage capacityand is especially good for storage of linens orboxes. Hanger Bars can be installed using 16"shelving. Be sure to use 16" Brackets with 16"shelving (with the exception of Shelf & Rod).
