![]() ![]() SIDE NOTE: It’s impossible to do this task without the magnetic stud finder or a different type of stud finder!īefore attaching a brace to the wall, check that it is level and then nail into place with 2″ nails.Īfter you install all the bracing, it’s time to set up the top shelf (the one that spans the length of the closet). To do this, measure the wall for placement and identify the location of the wall studs. STEP 6: INSTALLING THE ORGANIZER INTO THE CLOSETīefore the actual organizer can go into the closet, you need to secure the bracing for the long top shelf and the rods. SIDE NOTE: When the paint finished drying, I assembled the last two shelves on my organizer. I applied two coats of primer and two coats of white paint. TIP: Applying caulk will make the organizer look finished and you can see my tips and tricks how to apply caulk in this article. Once the sealant has dried, you are ready to paint. This will give you a clean, finished product. STEP 5: PAINTINGīefore painting, prep the organizer by caulking the seams where each shelf meets the sides. To attach a shelf, use the 1-1/4″ screws and adjust the torque on your drill ( the numbered dial) to avoid over-drilling. There will be a 3/4″ gap once the shelf is added. Therefore, place the bottom shelf 1-1/2″ from the edge of the side pieces.
