Wall Mounted Closets vs Floor Mounted Closets

When exploring closet systems, there are two main types to choose from—wall mounted systems, which are installed on the wall without touching the floor, and floor mounted systems, which sit directly on the floor. Both can look beautiful, but at Victory Closets, we specialize in wall mounted systems—and here’s why!

More Affordable

The biggest reason we offer a wall mounted closet system is because it’s more affordable for our customers. Wall mounted systems use less material than floor mounted ones, which makes them less expensive to build while still providing the same amount of storage space.

Our wall mounted systems achieve a sleek, clean look at a fraction of the price. Plus, the open shelving design makes your closet feel larger and more spacious and you’re not paying for backing material that gets covered up by clothes anyway. Think of the open shelving trend seen on shows like Fixer Upper—it creates that same airy, modern look! And it gives you the option to add your own creative design flair with unique paint colors or wallpaper!

Stability

Is a wall mounted system sturdy? Absolutely! Think of your kitchen cabinets which are wall mounted. We attach our support rails to the studs for maximum stability, and our patented cleating system means your closet shelves have greater support than the traditional pins and fasteners used by other closet systems.

Storage Space

Don’t worry about losing storage space with a wall mounted design—you’ll get just as much as you would with a floor mounted system. The difference is in the design efficiency. Our system is built to maximize every inch of available space, with floor space being a convenient place for your bulk storage or hanging sections placed to allow clothes to reach near the floor without touching it. At Victory Closets, we plan every layout to make the most of your room and your storage needs, ensuring you get function and beauty in one.

No Impact to Your Flooring

Many people don’t think about how a closet system affects their flooring until it’s too late. With a floor mounted system, replacing flooring in the future can be a major project since the closet sits directly on the floor—you may have to remove the system entirely.

A wall mounted closet, on the other hand, won’t impact your flooring or baseboards and makes it easy to change your floors anytime. It’s also easier to clean underneath and around your closet components, keeping your space fresh and dust-free.
