    These cabinets are 96" tall , standard is 84" so the tall units all have wardrobe lifts so the hanging can be accessed easily

    You can pretty much add anything you want to these cabinets you want when you order them , you just pay for it

    I've added T&G aromatic cedar to drawers and cabinets before , it's pretty straight forward

    Done a nice wainscotting in a walk in out of it before too

    Not today but recently did counters, backsplash & appliances. Never did tile work before this, I think it came out nice.

    I think all of those pics were before grout. I'll have to take some of finished product. For anyone who is intimidated by tile work, I was, I say do it it's not as hard as it seems.

    Tried blowing up the pictures with no real luck. From what I can see the tile looks good though. Grouting is the most difficult part of doing tile in my opinion. Getting a nice even slightly curved grout line is sometimes difficult. The non working end of an old tooth brush works well though as your tooling piece.

    I like the walk ins. But why does someone need that big of a closet?

    Ours is getting too small, between my uniforms, wife's work clothes (suits, dress shirts and such), our regular clothes, and my 1 suit and few dress shirts it's getting tight in there. Plus, I'd like to bolt our gun safe down in there as well (next house it will be at least). We hang damn near everything lol

    now I know you like to build from scratch and you are awesome at it, but what are your thoughts on companies like california closets or easy closets? they look like they're made from particle board and that worries me if we went that route in the future.

    I didn't build these cabinets , I'm just installing them . These are made from plywood , perhaps that is an option with those companies as well
