theSTORYSTORYIn 1982 Bill Longman, President of Euro-Rite Cabinets,

started manufacturing and selling bathroom vanities from his home

in Coquitlam, British Columbia. From this humble beginning,

Euro-Rite has become the largest Canadian cabinet manufacturer

West of Winnipeg.

Bill believes that customer loyalty is won by providing the best

value for money in the cabinet industry.

Based on this tradition we are proud to introduce Euro-Rite’s

new Closet line.

Euro-Rite closets are designed for both contractors and Do-It-

Yourself enthusiasts. Our stackable Ready to Assemble (RTA) units

can be used alone or in a multitude of combinations to increase

your storage space and get you organized. Flexibility is provided

with the use of doors, drawers, extra shelves and hardware options.

euro-rite closets offer two colour options:

The PROGRAMThe PROGRAMStep 1 introduces the closet components and accessories

off ered in this program.

Closet organizers are typically made up of modules. Fig.1

shows the six basic modules used in closet organization, with some

typical uses.

Any combination of these modules can be put together

to create a custom closet organizer. Fig.2 displays some basic

confi guration samples.

Th e product codes required for each module are located to

the bottom right of the illustrations in Fig.1 and refers to the

components listed on page 2. NOTE: “CLP”s shown in white are

not included in parts list.

A CLP is required to support modules A-E where there

is no module F to their left and right. A single CLP can

support a module on the left and right side. See Fig.5

Closet organizer is 83 ½" high

Closet organizer depth is 14 ½" except for corner units

and 20" deep shelf units

(A)(A) DOUBLE SHORT HANGINGProbably the most common in closet organization.

Two short hanging rods maximizes hanging space

for shirts, blouses, pants and sports coats.

(B)(B) LONG HANGINGThis module is intended for housecoats, long

dresses and gowns.

2–CLFS 1–CLROD

(C)(C) SEMI-SHORT HANGINGThe hanging length here is ideal for short dresses,

pants hung by the cuff and coats. There is still space

for folded clothes in the shelving above.

1–CLUS 1–CLROD

(D)(D) SHORT HANGING WITHSHELVES ABOVE

A good combination of shelving and short hanging.

Folded clothes are easily accessible while still

providing space for hanging items.

1–CLUS 1–CLFS 1–CLROD

(E)(E) SHORT HANGING WITHSHELVES BELOW

A good combination of shelving and short hanging. The shelving provides space for shoes and accessories (such as drawers and baskets for clothing items).

1–CLUS 1–CLFS 1–CLROD

shelves, drawers and baskets can be added. Can

also be duplicated with corner and 20"deep units.

CLUS are standard shelf units(used in modules C to F in Fig.1)

CLBS is a deep shelf unit (used in modules E or F in Fig.1) most useful in walk-in closets. It allows for deeper drawers. A CLBS can be stacked on itself or can have a CLUS–2 stacked above it. See Fig.3

CLCS is used in module F (Fig.1). This unit is reversible and works best in walk-in type closets. It can also be used for reach-in closets where the closet is more than 20" deep and the return is less than 15". See Fig.4

CLFS–1 or CLFS–2 (used for modules A, B, D and E see Fig.1). When used in modules A and B, a CLFS can be cut down to fi t any space smaller than its outside dimension.

CLFS–3 can only be used for modules A and B (Fig.1).A CLFS–3 can be cut down to fi t any space smaller than it’s outside dimension.

CLROD–1 or CLROD–2 are required for modules A to E (Fig.1). The same size CLROD should be used to match the size of CLUS or CLFS. E.g. If a modules uses two CLFS–2, then that module will require two CLROD–2.

CLROD–3 can be used only with a CLFS–3 in modules A or B (Fig.1).

MEASURINGMEASURINGStep 2 guides you through measuring various types of closets.

REACH-IN CLOSETCLOSET INSIDE DIMENSIONS

Width (A)

Height (B)

Depth (C)

Most Reach-in closets have doors. Either Bi-fold, or By-pass. Fill out the dimensions in the area according to the door type you have. If your closet has no doors at all, then use the Bi-fold section. Return (D1 & D2) will now be to the edge of the opening (if you have a return at all).

BY-PASS DOOR OPENINGDIMENSIONS

Return (D1)

Return (D2)

Width (E1)

Width (E2)

Height (F)

To measure By-pass door openings, move doors to the right to get measurement (E1) and then to the left to get measurement (E2). Measurements (D1) and (D2) will be from the inside of the left and right wall to the edge of the door opening. Total width = (E1+E2+D1+D2).

BI-FOLD DOOR OPENINGDIMENSIONS

Return (D1)

Return (D2)

Width (E)

Height (F)

When measuring a Bi-fold door opening, make sure the doors are resting open. Measurements (D1) and (D2) will be from the inside of the left and right wall to the edge of the door at the opening. Total width = (D1+D2+E).

WALK-IN CLOSETCLOSET INSIDE DIMENSIONS

Width (A1)

Width (A2)

Width (A3)

Walk-in type closets are simple to measure since the door opening does not usually affect the design. Just fi ll in the required measurements and you are ready to move to the next step!

TIP �

It is best to have the closet

empty of clothes when

measuring. Th is will allow

you to see obstacles like

baseboards or plumbing access

panels that may aff ect your

design. If you have baseboards,

you can take them out, or you

can notch the bottom of the

closet panels and gables to fi t

around them.

TIP �

Walls are rarely square, fl at or

level. When measuring Width

(A), it is always best to measure

in various places (top, middle,

bottom). Take the smallest

measurement and subtract ½" if

it’s under 6ft, ¾" if it is 6-10ft

and 1" if it is over 10ft. This

will ensure a problem free fit!

DESIGNINGDESIGNINGTh is step will help you design your closet by showing design samples and off ering design

tips. Drawing out your closet helps visualize a design and provides a plan to follow when it

comes to the installation.

Fig.10 shows a design with one of each of the six basic modules from Fig.1 (A to F) and

the components used for each module. A design grid is provided for your use at the end of

this section. You don’t have to be an artist to draw a design. What’s important is using the

correct measurements (from Step 2) to create a design that fi ts your closet and your needs.

TIP �

Only components CLFS(1-3)

and CLROD(1-3) can be cut

down to fi t a custom width.

Th at means only modules A

and B can be cut down to fi t a

custom width. A typical closet

will have at least one of either

of these modules.

TIP �

Th ere are fi ve CLP components

in Fig.10 (highlighted in

orange). A CLP is required to

support modules A to E where

there is no module F to the left

or right. A CLP is ⅝" wide.

TIP �

It is best to design a closet

with shelving in open

accessible areas. For example,

with Bi-fold doors, shelving

is best near the center of the

closet while hanging is to the

sides. With By-pass doors,

shelving is best near the sides,

making sure accessories like

drawers or baskets can be

added without having them hit

return walls or doors.

In Fig.12, Closet #1 meets Closet #2 using a CLFS–1. The CLFS–1 will have to be cut down. 10" to 12" should be enough room to leave access to clothes in the opposing closet.

Closet #2 and #3 are joined with a corner tower (2 x CLCS).

DESIGN EXDESIGN EXAMPLEAMPLETIP �

Sometimes it can be useful to

draw a fl oor plan (top view) of

a walk-in closet. Fig.11 shows

the fl oor plan of the sample

walk-in closet.

TIP �

Closet organizers meet at the

corners of the walk-in closet.

There are two ways to design

this transition (Fig.12 & 13).
