How to Build a Closet
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 06. 2024
- When we purchased our home, we knew we wanted to add a closet to this front room and now we finally have! We love the way this closet transformed the room and are very excited that guests now have a place to hang their clothes.
All of the materials and tools I used for the projects are linked below!
This project is sponsored by my friends at The Home Depot. From versatile buying options, tool rentals, and thousands of how-to videos, The Home Depot has the tools and materials you need to keep building and get more done. Check out their Tool Rental and How To guides resources linked below!

That looks great.
Thank you so much!
Contractors are so incredible.
Not a contractor actually, but thanks!
Loved the pace if this video, quick and still full of detail. Great job with the closet! ☺️
Thank you so much for the feedback! I try to keep the video moving without skipping too many details. 👍👍
This video was so insanely helpful! I just finished framing a closet just like this. Never framed before. Had a buddy give me some pointers along the way. Also - Those closet doors are the best looking bi folds I have seen. Ordered the same ones for mine too.
Thank you so much for the feedback! We really love those doors too 😃 btw, I might have another home improvement video dropping in just a couple days 🤫🤫
Amazing video and this is exactly what I want to do. Too late for me to get such a skillful and motivated husband but I pray to God to be able to raise my son like that. Any wife must cherish a man like that.
May God protect you and your family from any harm.
Thank you!
Just the video I needed. We’re going double the size
Glad you found it! That'll be a big closet 👍🏻😃
This guy's videos are amazing. Thank you for keeping it quick, simple, and informative.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it👊
Nice job, looks great and very instructive.
Thank you so much I hope it helps!
Beautiful craftsmanship Mike, came out very professional
Thank you👍
Great work and inspiration for others.
Thank you very much!
I loved it awesome closet door handles sure make it look very fancy your wife is lucky to have you
Thank you very much, we love the way it turned out!
Wow this is amazing. Very clean and modern 🤩🤩😍😍
Thank you very much! We love how it turned out! 😃
Thanks A lot man! I needed help learning how I should Make my closet and this vid helped A lot!!!
Awesome! So glad it is helpful!
Dude, nicely executed! One of the best add-on framing to an existing room. This is the exact same way I do it and believe me, I’ve seen some pretty shady ones throughout my career. This one by far is done simply right!
It’s obviously not new construction but it’s actually done right.
Thanks man! 👊👊
Awesome!! I would of added a bottom rack and raised the top one. But still came out seamlessly
Yep, we thought about adding a lower rack, but also wanted to leave it open for storage if needed.
If only I knew how to use or do any of that on my own. Great job!
thank you!
6:48 most helpful tip, I didn't know where to find lumber and drywall and all the supply, Thank you for letting me know that Home Depot sells them all I will step in to my local Home Depot and buy them.
🤪
Fantastic. Such a good job with the time lapse video.
Thank you so much, glad you liked it!
Great job. You would never know it was an addition.
Thank you so much! We tried our best to make it look original and think it came out great too!
great video. That closet looks really nice!
Thank you so much!
Thank you, I am going to give this a try.
Awesome! Have fun 😃
This is beautiful work
Thank you!
I'm not planning to build these kind of stuff but its so satisfying to watch it
Totally understand 😃😃
Wow, that was impressive! 👏👏👏
Thank you very much!
You are the man. Good Job. Very helpful.
Hey thanks, glad it was helpful!
I wish there are in person classes that can teach us this.
It would literally be the same information though.
It's really bautifully done.
Thank you so much!
Amazing job!!
Thank you very much! 😃
Looks great!
Thank you!
Beautiful work. I hate finishing drywall. Need to hire someone like you.
Thank you! Hahaha, yeah drywall isn't the most fun, but definitely rewarding when it's all finished up and looking good😃
OMG!!!! AMAZING I love it
Thank you!
This was AWESOME. I have an unfinished closet space that needed the header wall built to hang the doors, and VOILA, your video showed me the way.
So glad it helped! 😃😃
This is why you guys get paid the big bucks! Great job, looks so nice!
Thank you very much, we love how it came together!
Excellent, easy to follow instructional video. Thank you for sharing. How long did the project take, start to finish?
Thank you so much! Project took just over a week 👍🏻😃
Wonderful instructional video....this you sir!!!!
Thanks, glad it was helpful!
Great job!!
Thank you! 😃😃
I pray God blesses me with a husband just like you! This is so amazing, thanks for this awesome example.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. We love how the addition came out!
Yes! Also you see here you can do it yourself! Then when you find a guy you can do it together! ❣
You can do it yourself to
@@carolinebarley To be fair it's pretty damn hard to do this alone when you don't have expertise in building things, anyone to advise you, help you and you don't have all the tools. I've built stuff and renovated rooms on my own (as a woman too) and it's a hassle and takes a looong time and many days of patience! Keep running back and forth to the stores almost daily because things don't work out the way you want, things you didn't know you were supposed to do, and it ends up being 3x as expensive as planned. So I too would love to have a partner who's into this kind of things!
@@99xara99 yes! I've learned everything I know about car maintenance from my husband, over YEARS, and I still ask for his help. Learning together is always a gift when you get to.
this is super great man congrats ..its perfect nicely done man 👍👌👏
Thank you very much!
Thank you for sharing
Absolutely, hope it helps!
Thank you so much
Absolutely!
Very informative video! Thank You...

Thank you so much! God bless and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
You do good work very neat
Thank you! 👊👊
This was such a great video. I just need someone to come do it for me
Thank you! Haha, yeah I hear ya there😃
Voila ... For probably less than $500 to add this closet, he just PER CODE legally added an additional bedroom to his home which added probably $25-30,000+ in value to his home! Great video bro!
Thank you very much!
nice thank you
Thanks! Glad you liked it👍😃
In Italy I would buy an Ikea wardrobe. So much less work and if you get tired of it you can change it with a moment.
Looks like Woodshop Mike is taking us to the bedroom
I love it!! It would be amazing if you would provide more info on how much it cost to make it and others things, but I really like it. Thumbs up and subscribed.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the feedback and happy to have ya here👍🏻😃
@@WoodshopMike Thanks a lot. It’s my pleasure to watch your contents! Great job!!

Glad it was helpful!
Very nice job. What were the closet and door measurements?
Nice Job
Thank you! 👊👊

Great video! Thank you for sharing with us DYers :)
Thank you! Glad it was helpful👍👊

@@WoodshopMike you are welcome. Thanks for that powerful scripture. If you have time, look up Dr Walter Martin on CZcams. His knowledge on the word of my God is very profound and educational. Thanks again Mike!
Will do! Thanks👍🏻
I need to be talented like you, great job
Thank you!
What size was the closet
You knocked that out dude! Came out great.
Thanks Mike! We love it 👍🏻👊🏻
NICE
Thank you!
nice..
Thank you! 👊
That was amazing I don't know if I'm brave enough to do this yet LOL.
Thanks! It wasn't too bad, but definitely a bunch of steps involved. Cheers!
Great 👍🏻 what is the sizes
You did all of that work just to store two jackets and a carryon? Just kidding- super helpful and inspiring project!
😂😂😂 I just couldn't settle for shoving them under the bed anymore!
Great work Woodshop Mike 👍🤓
When thinking of the entire build before hand did you take into consideration the bi-fold door widths for your opening?
I understand the build is pretty straightfwd if a person is quite handy. But dims sometimes stump me from beginning. Thks,
Thank you! We actually wanted barn doors originally, but the space just wasn't conducive to that. I made sure I had all of the dimensions for the bifold doors before framing the opening. That information is available from where the door is ordered👍👍
Nice, you're pro! Do I have to measure door before building lumber 2"x4'? Or Door's paper will provide information?
Thanks! The door will provide the rough in dimensions👍
7:46 Watch out the boss is in the place !! Haha im kidding, nice video !
🤣🤣🤣 thanks 👍👊
Brownwood?! Like Brownwood, TX? If so, I've been there and Home Depot is the only exciting store in town. LOL I almost moved there for work but decided I didn't want to die of boredom. LOL Great video Mike.
Thanks!
Great job keep up the good work. Do you also have video how to do baseboards?
Thank you very much! I don't believe I do, but I cope baseboards with a narrow fine tooth blade in a jigsaw held upside down for the inside corners. (I'm sure that's only marginally helpful 😂). Glad you enjoyed the video!
Nice 😍
Thank you very much Amy!
nice job bro
Thank you👍👍
Looks great. What’s the size of the closet?
great job. can you please provide a link for the oscillating tool you used for cutting drywall that makes the opening. Thanks
Thank you! Link should be in the description👍
Nice job 👍🏼, what are the door openings dimensions?
Thanks for the video!! Was wondering what anchor/screws you used for hanging your top plate on the ceiling that didn't have a stud there.
Thanks, in advance!
Thank you, I'm glad it was helpful! I believe the exact ones I used are linked in the description.
Great video! Finished product looks very professional! I am looking to build a closet similar in dimension. How many total man hours would you say we're involved?
Thank you so much! We're really happy with the addition. It's hard to say but I'd estimate 40-60 hours
I need to add a closet in my basement
Such a good improvement for this room!
