Custom Closets in North York

Our workshop is at 1101 Finch Avenue West. Most of the closets in our gallery were built within fifteen minutes of where you live — which changes how this project feels. Measurement visits are usually same-week. If a panel needs recutting on install day, someone drives back to the shop and returns within the hour instead of rescheduling you to next week. And you can come and see the materials in person before you commit, rather than choosing a finish from a photograph. See how our closet service works for pricing, materials and process.

A real ARV install — finished custom closet project

Post-war homes

Post-war bungalows and the 1950s closet

Willowdale, Bathurst Manor, Downsview and the streets around Bayview Village are full of homes built between 1948 and 1965. The bedrooms are generous by today’s standards; the closets are not. A typical original closet here is 48 inches wide, 22 inches deep, with a single wooden rail at 66 inches and one shelf above it. Everything above that shelf is dead air — usually 30 to 40 inches of it.

That dead air is the cheapest storage in your house. Double hanging on one side, adjustable shelving to the ceiling, and a drawer bank where the floor currently holds shoes will typically get you 60 to 70 percent more usable storage in exactly the same opening, without touching a wall.

Condos

The tower corridor through North York Centre has the opposite problem: newer, tighter, and governed by a building rulebook. Suite closets are often shallower than the 24 inches a standard system assumes, so we build shallower carcasses with angled hanging rather than losing the closet to a system that does not fit. Where there is a den or a wide entry hall, a floor-to-ceiling wardrobe wall usually gains more storage than reworking the original closet at all.

Service elevator bookings, certificates of insurance and permitted install hours are routine for us in these buildings — we file the paperwork before the truck leaves the shop.

FAQ

North York closet questions

Can I visit the workshop?

Yes. Call ahead and we will have the finish samples and hardware out. It is the fastest way to decide between a matte and an anti-fingerprint face.

How soon can you measure?

In North York, usually within the same week — often within two or three days.

My bungalow has a sloped ceiling over the stairs. Is that a problem?

No, and it is usually where custom pays for itself. A stock system cannot use that space at all; we build drawers and low shelving into it.
