Custom closet questions from Sun City Center homeowners.

The layout, products and installation scope set the price. Ask for optional accessories and preparation work to be listed separately so you can compare them.

Measure the heights you can reach easily, note where a bench would fit and check the aisle with drawers open.

Note the door type, measure the clear opening and list what you want within easy reach and what can go higher or lower.

Photograph the garage as used, mark where the car and golf cart park and note the charger and the step to the house.

Group your groceries by weight and use, mark the door swing and note which shelves you cannot comfortably reach.

List the computer, supplies and records, note a guest bed in its open position and mark where the seat and desk go.

Measure the machine heights, plan a folding surface and mark the width of the passage you need.

Ask for the panel, surface, edge and hardware details and compare them with the sample. A color name by itself does not describe construction.

State what must be removed, which fittings stay and how the installer reaches the room. For a garage, include where the car and cart park. Ask which preparation tasks and trades are covered.

Ask for care information on the products actually supplied. Similar finishes can need different care, and an illustration does not identify a product.
