Custom closets in New York City.
Five boroughs, one workshop. From prewar co-ops and brownstone parlor floors to conversion lofts and glass towers — custom closets designed in 3D, milled at our Bronx workshop, and installed by the crew that built them.
New York is the hardest place in America to build a closet, and the reason we exist. The city's housing was largely drawn before the modern wardrobe — prewar co-ops with plaster walls and mean closets, tenement walk-ups with none at all, brownstones whose original trim deserves better than a wire kit screwed beside it, and new towers where every inch of a tight floor plan has to earn its keep. A catalogue system meets these rooms on the system's terms. We meet them on the room's: every project is surveyed in person, drawn in CAD, and milled to those exact dimensions.
The workshop is the difference. Everything we build for the city is milled at 382 Canal Place in Mott Haven — twenty minutes from most Manhattan addresses — which means the crew in your service elevator is the crew that built your cabinetry, carrying the certificates of insurance your board requires, on an install measured in days rather than weeks. Since 2008, more than four hundred projects, each signed and numbered, backed by twenty-five years on the cabinetry and a lifetime on the joinery.
We work co-op and condo alteration agreements daily — COIs, freight-elevator bookings, summer work rules — and we protect lobbies, hallways and floors before anything is carried in. Brownstones, townhouses and new construction are simpler still: one crew, one schedule, the room left clean each evening.
Every project is milled at the Bronx workshop — a 6,000 sq ft workshop on the East River — and installed by the same crew that built it. We do not subcontract the install.

Do you build custom closets in New York City?
Yes. Kloset Worx designs, mills and installs custom closets, walk-in dressing rooms, pantries and built-in storage throughout New York City. Every project is drawn in 3D, milled at our Bronx workshop (382 Canal Place, Mott Haven), and installed by the same crew that built it — we do not subcontract.
How much does a custom closet cost in New York City?
It depends on the room. A reach-in typically starts near $3,500; a walk-in dressing room usually runs in the tens of thousands; a whole-residence program starts near $300K. You receive a fixed, written quote after we measure the room in person.
Is the design consultation free?
Yes. The first visit runs about an hour — at your home or at the workshop — at no charge and with no obligation. If you go ahead, any design fee is credited to your project.
How long does a custom closet take?
Roughly two to three weeks for a reach-in, four to six for a walk-in dressing room, and ten to sixteen for a whole residence, measured from the approved drawings. Every project is backed by twenty-five years on the cabinetry and a lifetime on the joinery.
Do you handle co-op and condo board requirements?
Yes. We carry the certificates of insurance that co-op and condo boards require, schedule the freight elevator with the building in advance, and protect the lobby, hallways and floors before anything is carried in.
