Before trying to maximize closet space with a wardrobe system, first assess your current closet situation to determine what you need from the extra organization. L-shaped closets are especially helpful in small living quarters that need to take advantage of every nook and cranny. Once you determine what you might need extra storage for, you can easily select whether you want more shelves or hanging space as you build out your storage solution.

Create space with these methods

One corner closet solution is bridge shelves. Bridge shelves are the connection point between perpendicular walls. The shelves have a "V" shape and provide extra storage space in the connection point of the two walls that would otherwise be separated. Bridge shelves also improve the appearance of your closet and can be installed at different levels to fit your needs.

Corner closet systems also create extra storage for your wardrobe with hanging rods. It's important to find a corner organizing system that only has one rod instead of two because many L-shaped wardrobes have clothes hanging rods that cross over each other. However, this frequently leads to wasted space and difficulty accessing the clothing you need. Instead, opt for a closet intersection that has a hanging space section run only on one side until it reaches the wall. This way the clothing rods aren't competing with each other and you can still easily see and grab what you need, including the items closest to the wall.

In order to use your L-shaped closet system to its full potential, you'll also want to make sure it's organized to further maximize space. Storage bins, shelf dividers, or putting a clothing rod close to the top of the ceiling are all ways to increase space and ensure the extra corner storage counts. No matter how you choose to optimize your wardrobe, taking advantage of bridge shelves, hanging rods, and closet corner organizers is sure to increase your usable space to help you fit all your favorite pieces.
