I'm also in the business of carpentry and am well aware of the money, time, and expertise that go into doing this type of professional work. With that being said, I appreciate the thoughtfulness and time youput into giving those that have never done this type of work and maybe cannot afford to pay someone else to do it HOPE. If you can follow directions, you can do this. Thank you for your very needed video. Blessings and much success to you.
Well said!
Most vids just show them cutting and installing everything. Thank you for breaking it down for us beginners!
You’re welcome!
This is the best DIY walk in closet on a budget, ever. I will tackle this project this spring for the wife. Thank you very much!
Thanks!
I love how detailed this video is, I'm feeling like I can take on my closet 🙂
You can do it!
Sooo helpfull
This was a really good video! Super informative and you spoke so clearly and succinctly. No “and” “um”. Well done.
Thank you so much!
I like how you explained, it's been a long time to search which and what equipment and material to use for doing this thank you for sharing
This was such an easy video to understand and follow! You are great at teaching this DIY building stuff. Thank you! I gained so much confidence just from watching your video and listening to your instructions. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🤗
This was what I was looking for...WOW! I have been lost in my new construction. My closet has been a pain in my brain for 10 months now. I finally found your video and I think it turned on my light bulb. Thank you so, so very much. You Rock! I see in the comments I'm not the only one who noticed, lol. Keep posting , keep changing people's lives and giving awesome eye opening videos.
Thanks! So glad you found it helpful.
Just a couple of comments.
1. If you don't have a pick-up, you can get Home Depot/Lowes etc. to cut the shelves for you when you purchase the MDF sheet.
2. If you are cutting the 4X8 sheet yourself, keep in mind after you cut the first three 12 inch shelves, the fourth shelf (the left over piece) will be 12 inches minus 3x the thickness of the saw blade. So if you want 4 equal shelves, you have to determine the thickness of the blade then multiply that by 3 and subtract the result from 48 inches. Then you can divide by 4 and use that as your measurement to cut each piece.
Thanks for the tips!
@@StayHandy You're welcome. Really nice job on the closet. Thanks for mentioning the water based vs oil based issue with the paint.

@@StayHandyAre the shelves the same color as the closet walls?
Last time I had HD cut my stuff they messed up all the measurements! I had to recut everything myself.
You do this stuff like it's a piece of cake. Very impressive, I just didn't get that gene apparently, but I will try to get this done anyway. Great video, thanks.
Good luck!
This give me sooo much more confidence to do my little closet. Thanks!
You're so welcome!
Thank you buddy. I think I can follow it. Easy explanation.
You are welcome.
Very good job with basic tools and thank you!
Thank you for creating an easily understood video. I was going to install the wire shelves that you had until seeing this video & realizing what a difference the solid shelves make compared to the wire. Whew! Saved me from major disappointment!
It’s a lot more work but it’s very nice to have solid shelves.
Great stuff Dan. Thank you for sharing the knowledge and keeping it simple, yet profesional
Impressive! I love the little tips, like taping off where to cut the carpet!
Glad it was helpful!
Gracias a su video me animaré a hacerlo en mi casa, lo explica usted EXCELENTE, me encantó!!!!
the best dyi video of closets
Thanks!
Love the hair, Dan!
I really appreciate this tutorial. Thank you!
Best closet video I've seen so far! Thanks for this!
Wow, thank you!
3:21 thank you so much for explaining why to use an oil based primer. We made the mistake of using water based on MDF and noticed the raised wood fibers. Thankfully, the shelves were for our basement shop area so it wasn't such a disappointment. We're getting ready to make closet systems and now I know!
No problem. Glad you know now.
Really well done from start to finish!
Wow, that is clever! Love it💕
This is the best video I've seen to build my own closet. Thanks for sharing.💖 I will be trying it soon. 🌹🌹🌹
Good luck!
Thanks. You just made it possible to get done without having to dole out a lot of $$$.
Thank you! Just what I needed.
Very helpful thank you
This was extremely helpful. Thanks for this

You’re welcome! It’s a lot of work, but totally worth it.
You're very good buddy, I might be wrong but I think you're a professional closet/cabinetry installer, but you are indeed just great in DIY cabinetry. Thanks for your video, learned a couple good stuff. Hi five from Ethiopia
Wow, thanks
I am from Pakistan. I saw this video its very useful video. Thanks
This is the first video that actually says simple tools, and it was. It's very inspiring 😊
Thanks!

You’re welcome. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment.
Another great video!
Very helpful, thank you!
This is awesome, Thanks so much.
Damn, this is the exactly what I was looking for. I was going to do everything in a very complicated way with frames etc. I will still need to do that for the free parts, but this is so much better for everything I can do near the walls. Thanks so much for this great video!
Glad it was helpful!
@@StayHandy it really was. Could I use plywood to create sort of like walls if I want to turn a free standing wall into a walk-in closet? I can do the shelves this way, but the other side is freestanding and I am looking for the easiest way to make something happen there. Thanks so much again!
Very nice job 👍
Thank you for the video. This is definitely something doable.
You bet!
Absolutley brilliant!! 👏👏👏
Glad you liked it!

Awesome video. Can you explain how the support walls stay up??
He's shooting from the inside of the support walls into the shelve supports that are shot to the wall studs. you can see this step at 7:30 pretty well.
Thank You!
Who needs a walk-in closet when you can have a dance-in closet? Great tutorial, I'm ready to boogie with my shelves now!
finally thank u I found a steby step.

So good!! You make it look like a novice like me who can barely hang a bracket in her closet build a full custom closet without spending thousands!!
Awesome! It’s probably harder than it appears in this video though.

How are the vertical boards supported to stand straight? Also how are the triangles fastened to the boards? All with glue? I see no corner brackets.
Interested as well!
Same
❤your just the best.😅
Thanks
You’re welcome!
Dope as video.
Appreciate it
Great video and info!! How did you get the corners on the shelves? Did you cut them or router them? Thank you!!
hey my guy great video. I don't have carpentry tools to cut the panel, wants the next best thing to do.
You did a great job here. Why do so many closets have angled shoe racks?
Looks Great!
I have a smaller walk-in and no tools to start with. What would you recommend me purchasing and what do you guesstimate the cost would be for everything? Thanks for the great video and content!
"...but this is how I did it and you can't win 'em all.." 🤣 my life in a quote
Looks Great ! What closet rods and rod holders do you recommend ?
Жарайсың!
I your doing great job out there. I admire your willingness to keep the job. If you don’t mind will you tell me your machine names and the best type.
I’m planning to work on my own home 🏡 😂
Great video , How did you tack the vertical boards to the back wall?
Wow
