Newer primary suites in Lakeway and Bee Cave homes often have larger walk-in closets that a stock wire-shelf kit underutilizes. Lakeway Custom Cabinets designs closet systems around the actual footprint of the space, hanging length by hanging length, rather than a generic rod-and-shelf layout bolted in from a box.
A built-to-fit system also handles odd closet shapes better. Angled walls, narrow reach-ins, or walk-ins with a window, a kit system can't account for any of it.

Custom Closet Systems FAQs
How much do custom closet systems cost in Lakeway?
Most closet systems run $2,500 to $8,000 for a walk-in, depending on size and whether drawers and lighting are included.
How long does a custom closet build take?
Build time is typically 2 to 4 weeks after design approval, with install done in a single day.
Is a custom closet worth it over a kit?
If your closet has an odd shape, angled wall, or window, a custom system uses the space better than a generic kit sized for a rectangular opening.
Do I need a permit for a closet system?
Standard shelving and rod installation doesn't need a permit. Wall removal or new electrical does.
Can I install a closet system myself?
Basic wire shelving for a simple reach-in closet is a fair DIY job. Walk-ins with unusual dimensions do better with a measured, built-to-fit system.
What materials hold up best in a Texas closet?
Melamine panels resist humidity swings better than particle board and hold their shape over years of use.
