Easy Closets.com - Don't be Tempted
- - Claims of easy installation are misleading.
- - They don't custom size or cut thick brackets.
- - You must cut beams to fit; video omits this.
Unless you want to spend hours with a hacksaw, DON'T BE FOOLED by their claims their product is "easy to install" or "designed to be homeowner installed."
After they take all your measurements, they NEVER TELL YOU that they do not custom size or cut the THICK STEEL BRACKETS required to install the closets in the first place. So, in essence, what you get is a bunck of pieces parts and a date with a hacksaw.
Don't let their cute little "time lapse video" fool you either! See those thick metal support beams there, well they DON'T just magically fit the closet wall: NO, YOU HAVE TO *** THROUGH THEM TO MAKE THEM FIT!
Their designers don't tell you this; the FAQs don't tell you this; the video doesn't show this.
Hacksaws; thick steel beams; sharp edges to harm the closet users (in our case our kids): BAD BAD BAD all around.
I spoke directly to the so-called "Vice President of Internet Marketing" and she could not have been MORE condescending: "You do know how to use a drill, right? and a level, right? and a screwdriver, right?" Then, she claims that my call was being recorded and that there were also several people in the room listening in on the call. This was before she called me back and offered me money not to "drag her company through the mud." HUH??
We don't know about you, but if we wanted to use a hacksaw for hours and hours and hours at a time, we would have gone into metal working.
Trust us: save the time, headache, and expense: STAY AWAY FROM EASYCLOSETS.COM -- THERE IS NOTHING EASY ABOUT THEM.

My two year old whines less than you. Consider attending a rudimentary tool usage class at home depot. The steel supports have to be thick to hold the weight of the materials and everything that you plan to put in it.
You need to be a little handy to do an EasyClosets install. I don't know if the website makes this obvious, but I knew this already.
My husband and I are both pretty handy and while the installation took some time (and definitely a lot more time than a pro would take), it was pretty straightforward. I don't know why you would need a hacksaw for hours and hours..? Sawing was one of the easier parts of the job. Most of the extra time we took was dealing with non-plumb walls and a defective vertical panel.
I agree that EasyClosets isn't necessarily "easy," but a lot (if not most & definitely not all) of people find the effort worth it to save 50% or so off of CA Closets.
Having said that, after putting EasyClosets in our last home, I am using them again for only some of the closets in our new home, i.e., the ones that are pretty straightforward. The
What crybaby. I have put in a dozen of these organizers and it is easy. If you can't use a hacksaw for 10 minutes or a saber saw for 10 seconds, then hire someone and pay triple the price.
This is crazy. I installed 6 of these closets in my house and it was really easy.
I'm a 50 year old stay at home mother and using hacksaw took all of 10 minutes to cut the rod for the closet.
This guy should be embarrassed he couldn't do the install.
Seriously dude? You're going to throw the whole company under the bus because you can't spend 5 minutes with a hacksaw?
If you're so inept that this was difficult for you, you should ask one of the local neighborhood girls to help you. I am not handy and have installed their closets 5 times.
My wife has installed 2 of them in friends houses. And yes, she did also have to cut the support bar to length.
Just bought a closet and although I didn't personally install it, it was thousands less than what I could have gotten from alternative sources that include "free install". A couple drawers were damaged and the company sent me new ones--no hassle.
The handyman I had installed it all in less than one day and it was half the price I would have paid otherwise.
The drawers are nice quality, no complaints whatsoever. Would use them again.
Toughen up, cupcake. You can't use a hacksaw? :eek
This guy must sell woman's shoes for a living. I installed a whole closet in 5 hours.
It's pretty easy.
It looks great. Be a man and quit whining.
I've just ordered my second closet from easyclosets.com. I'm a 43 year old woman and had no problem installing the first one entirely by myself. The quality is great, customer service is great and it's exactly what I would expect from a DIY project of this scope.
Thanks for the good advice here. I would avoid any company that treats their customers like that! I'll be avoiding EasyClosets!
I have installed easy closets in 4 closets. Yes, there is some work involved in installing a closet, but I know I saved hundreds and hundreds of dollars by doing it myself and I am glad I did.
It really is not that hard to saw the metal bracket.
I'm about to order the parts for my 5th closet, and got a good laugh out of this. I bet this guy spent more time buying a URL and setting up this web site than I did putting in the closets...
I installed our master closet in about a day... One of the easiest home improvement projects I have ever done and really easy.
The toughest parts or the job were finding the stud (easy) and sorting all the boxes.
We are going to install 2 more systems in each of the kids' rooms. Buy it, you won't regret the decision.
I have to say that you didn't do your homework. Sorry, but you must assume that you need a certain skill set in order to do your own handy work.
I measured the closet space and emailed all my questions. My husband is a carpenter and knew what questions to ask. You have no business trying to install closets if you have no concept of how to do it in the first place. Why didn't you make the call and ask them all your questions before purchasing?
Smart consumers know to do this for DIY projects. Wise up man.
I have to agree with the other 10 people who commented here...I’ve installed a (huge) master closet and five others of varying size and complexity, including drawers, cubes, and multiple hampers - all from EasyClosets. No issues at all, in fact, when I cracked a shelf while installing, they replaced it at N/C.
Customer service is exemplary!
I’m an advanced homeowner with a lot of building experience, and their systems are as advertised...if you measure correctly, it fits and goes up painlessly.
Yeah, you have to cut the wall bracket to fit - but if I’m saving this much money ($2500 in the case of the master closet), I can live with cutting one piece of lightweight metal. EasyClosets is the best, period.
I am sorry that there was a complaint about easy closets. But I must say that if you design your closet with the wrong dimensions, you will have to use a hacksaw etc etc.
However, if you measure accurately, all pieces of the closet are sent to fit perfectly. I am a 42 year old woman and had a very easy time installing the closet.
The only difficulty would be finding the studs on your wall and hanging the initial hanging rod (which I must admit I asked a friend to do so I would not screw it up). Other than that, LOVE IT!!
I'm about to order easy clostes for my third house. I've installed two master closets (about to do a third) and a laundry room set-up.
I recommend Easy Closets to all of my friends and clients (I am a real estate agent). It is not difficult...
(point of reference: I am a 44 year old woman, and not terribly handy). The only thing I've ever had to purchase that I didn't already have was a pipe cutter (which cost about $9 at home depot) to cut the rod to length.
Easy Closets is the best!
I've installed three closets, a mater closet,a pantry, and a laundry room. The installation is EASY.
You might need a hacksaw for a big proJect. The company is awesome!!
Quality is superb. Needless to say a third less of MORE than a closet company.
I installed 3 of the EasyClosets systems in my home with absolutely no problems (and no hacksaw!). As long as you're fairly handy, they're a great deal, look wonderful, and are built to last.
If you don't know how to use a hacksaw, then I guess Easyclosets isn't for you.
Think about it...you would have to give Easyclosets precise (and I mean precise) measurements of the stud placements in your closet in order for them to precut the steel hanging bracket. I'd rather do the cutting myself.
Not every solution is right for everyone. That's why California Closets is in business, and that's why there is no shortage of handymen you can hire to install your Easyclosets, Ikea, or Acme closet.
I installed 3 in walk in closets in my home. Pmoses2 must be retarded and their kids are definitely slow if they got hurt.
Some people are just complainers and a royal pain in general. I enjoyed reading their story.
I feel bad for them. Stupidity is really painfully!!
