Custom closet questions for Kennesaw.

The layout, the products and the installation scope set the price. Ask for accessories and preparation work to be listed on separate lines so you can compare them with any other written proposal.

Write down what the center drawers would hold, check the clearance on every side and decide if the top is for folding, outfits or display.

List the furniture staying in the bedroom, separate dresser contents from closet contents and check that drawers open clear of the route.

Mark the route into the house, check cabinet doors against the house door and allow for bags, bins and baskets along the way.

Measure the clear width between walls, see how doors and drawers open into the aisle and leave room to lift out large items.

Measure the printer with its trays open, show which covers lift for service and leave a clear way to reach the cables behind it.

Say what is folded there, decide the working height that suits you and mark where baskets sit before and after each load.

Ask for the panel, surface, edge and hardware specification and compare it with the sample you are shown. A color name tells you nothing about how the cabinet is built.

State what has to be removed, which fittings stay and how the installer gets into the room. For a garage, say where the cars normally park. Ask which preparation tasks and which trades are included.

Ask for care information on the products actually supplied. Finishes that look alike can need different cleaning and upkeep, and an illustration does not identify a product.
