We don’t believe that the decision to utilize a floor-standing or wall-mounted system should be based upon what is easiest to manufacture, but rather, that the construction method should be determined by what is most suitable for your unique application. In some instances, a floor-supported system is clearly superior. In other installations, a wall-hung system might be advantageous. Both design considerations and personal preferences should be taken into account. At The Closet Works, we manufacture both types of systems so that your job can be installed in the best possible manner for you, considering all variables appropriately, and to avoid choosing a system based on what might be most convenient for us to make or install. That being said, a predominant number of our customers choose a floor-standing system because of the increased stability and a greater ability to modify the system in the future, should that be desired, for instance as an infant grows into a teenager or a room is repurposed. We do not cut baseboards because of the multiple issues associated with that practice. Instead, we notch the panels at the bottom and mount the panels to the side walls.
